Alex and Riana
The funniest thing happened the other week when I went out with my parents for some Dim Sum. We ran into Alex...a girl who my mom babysat 10 years ago when she was just a newborn. And wow have she grown! I hadn't seen her in more than 6 years but when she walked into the restaraunt, I immediately knew who the girl was. She wasn't with her parents so it was not so obvious. She was with her friend and her friend's parents. Well...as we all were in the waiting area, they happened to sit down right beside us so I asked the lady if the girl's name is Alex. The lady replied yes and so we started to talk and how we knew her. It was so funny. Of course Alex doesn't remember any of us, but she didn't shy away from talking to us. I told her how we babysat her when she was just a tiny baby and all.
A week later...just this past Saturday...there was a birthday party for her half sister Riana who was turning 4. I was invited to the party, but couldn't attend cuz I had already committed to my former boss' Bastille Day party. But even still...I wanted to give lil Riana a birthday gift so I stopped by before heading to my boss' place to drop off the gifts. The gifts were really cute. I got for her a backpack of a Disney character (not sure what...but it was of a fairy) and it came with some butterfly wings. Cute...I know. It was adorable. I couldn't resist from buying it. Then I also bought this really cute Nike jacket for her too. But I didn't want to leave Alex out since I hadn't seen her in so long...I bought her a couple of shirts that I thought was pretty cute. She's 10 now...and she's getting pretty tall.
When I came over to the home to drop off the gifts, Alex and Riana peeked out the window to see who it was and when Alex saw me, it was like she knew exactly who I was...even though we had ran into each other just the week before. But still...it was like she knew me. She was all waving and smiling at me and then took off to get her stepmom to open the door. And of course lil Riana just stood there by the window going..."Who is that?". It was so funny. Riana was so cute though. As soon as she saw the huge bag of gifts...she quickly grabbed it from me and started to peek in...hahaha.
Well...I hope they both enjoyed the gifts. Hopefully I'll be invited back next year and be able to make it this time.
