A splashing 20th!

Hwee Yin turned 20, only to find everyone asleep at midnight. Poor kiddo. Well, nobody forgot, if that's what you thought.

7.45 am May 16 2008

Josephine and Sapna walk into my room and shake me awake. Hair tousled, half dazed, looking terribly disheveled we creep out of my chalet. Nobody wakes up earlier than 9. It's just too ungodly. I hurry to drag alissa's butt out of bed. Jo and Sap fill little containers with water. Back to my chalet.

Padding in softly like four little thieves, i twist the knob of Hwee Yin's door. She's sleeping so peacefully. Short lived peace. Splash!~..she awakens with a start. We start belting out the birthday song. Happy 20th dear!
