Two eerie things happened one after another, all on the same day, within 2 hours in one hot Friday afternoon. First I was woken up by the soft music played on the radio. The main switch of the radio was on but the radio ON/OFF button was switched off before I slept.

After the incident, I tried to explain to myself that maybe the radio has this function auto/delayed ON function that I wasn’t aware of. I left the radio on the whole afternoon and I was online searching for the full moon celebration package. I wanted to place an order to celebrate baby’s full moon in a few days time and I had to do it before baby woke up.

Then suddenly, the living room fan went dead. The main switched was on but the fan was dead. I took the fan remote control and managed to switch the fan on again. Did Kylie and Kylin played with the fan remote control and set a delayed timer for the fan? I hope so but I wasn’t convinced after the first incident. This time I was really scared and I informed hubby right away. He was still in the office and miles away from me.

In the mean time, I chanted and I walked to the kitchen once again, thinking that I might have forgotten to do something like earlier. Then I smelled gas all over the kitchen room. Moreover, the kitchen window and door was closed. Thank goodness I discovered the smell. It could be hazarders to all of us. The whole house could have exploded or baby could have inhaled large amount of gas and maybe fainted or something. I really thanked the thing. That could be an angel after all that is guarding over baby and me all these while.

I sat on the couch, thinking for a long time. Usually, this kind of supernatural things will not happen during day time. But why am I experiencing it now at 3pm? Is there something that I was supposed to do? Thinking hard and thinking for a long time, then I remembered the concoction. I was supposed to switch off the gas stove at 2pm. OMG! I quickly walk, as I cannot run, as fast as I could to the kitchen. Switched off the gas stove and checked the concoction. The water in the outer pot almost dried up. If I were to measure the water level, I would say less than 2 ounces of water left in the big pot.

I was thankful that I was awoken by the music or the thing that started the music. But no matter what, I was still scared and I stayed wide awake after that. By the way, the story didn’t end here…Something else happened again on the same day.

When I asked her why she ranked cash voucher as #1, her answer was simply because she wanted to buy gold coins look alike sweets. She was so happy thinking of the amount of sweets she could buy and the possibilities of them covering all over her, her bed, the room and the house. She giggled herself to sleep thinking about the cash voucher and the sweets.

I was in the living room together with baby Kyson. The living room fan and the mini Hi-5 radio were switched on. I was listening to the radio all morning and have switched off the radio after lunch. There were only both of us in the house as the confinement lady went home after lunch.

The confinement lady double-boiled a concoction and reminded me to switch off the gas stove at 2pm. She had left the house at 1pm. I was laying on the couch watching TV while baby in his basinet. I got tired, switched off the TV and not long later, I dozed off. I was woken not by baby but by my radio. The music was on and I was scared. I stayed calm thereafter and started thinking. Why is the radio on? Is there something that I should be doing?

A year later, Kylie had forgotten the promise I made to her. Two weeks before her birthday, I asked if she wanted a birthday cake to celebrate in preschool and she said “No”. I asked her why and she said she wanted to save the birthday cake money to buy other things.

Then a week later, I asked her again and she gave me the same answer. I then told her that this will be the only year she can celebrate with a birthday cake in preschool and moreover, this will be her last year in preschool. She will be graduating end of this year.

Then without hesitate a moment longer, she said “Yes”. She wanted Cake#2 to celebrate in preschool.
