Happy Mom, enjoy your day off and recharge to keep going!

I finally found a day to give myself a break. The night before, I called my mom and asked if she could babysit for me. She was absolutely thrilled and immediately said yes!! She really missed her grandson (hmm? Why do I feel like you don’t miss me that much?!), no way, never doubt your mom!

Getting ready~ doing a little grooming~ (feels like it’s been ages since I’ve pampered myself, almost turning into a dull girl!). Nope, usually I look like the picture below... not dressing up and with a grumpy face?

Off I go Up!!!! I can drive too!! Cool, right!!~~ (ㄟ… what are you getting so excited about? Lots of people can drive, you know?)

I actually really like dressing like this~ so when I draw comics, it's usually how I normally look!

First stop: My brunch

No fancy romantic brunch today, just going for my favorite Tainan street snacks. Checked the menu—prices went up?!?! Lately, everything does seem to be getting more expensive... Many snack shops in Tainan have raised their prices too. But at least on weekdays, I don’t have to wait in line or jostle with tourists—no wasting my precious time today!! (Actually, I prefer Ah Tang’s savory porridge, but this place is closer to the library.)

Second stop: Tainan Public Library

Arrived at my destination Up~!! Tainan Public Library. Wanted to feel a bit artsy today~ and also look for some books I need for work soon. (BTW, this is my first time at the main library~ heard it’s really beautiful.)

As soon as you walk in, you’ll see the magazine section. Oh~~ the lighting is amazing, it’s so pretty here. Once you’re inside the library, it feels a bit awkward to take selfies, so I’m sharing some scenes from inside with you all instead. Now heading to the book section~

Thinking of my little one?... sent a message to ask how they’re doing... they’re playing games by themselves. So cute~

The AV room inside is pretty nice too!! Next time I’ll come here to relax and watch movies with more time. There are also kids’ programs. Made it to the kids’ area~ the setup is quite nice too, wanted to find some books for Xiao Juan, and then started missing my baby again~~

Mom’s feeding the baby some complementary food~ (brought it over this morning). Making ice bricks has this advantage—they’re easy to carry and steam. Today’s food is shown in the picture below~ includes avocado, sweet potato, carrot, 10x rice porridge, and vegetable puree (vegetables, mushrooms).

Speaking of which~ wasn’t I supposed to be out enjoying some freedom? Why am I thinking about my little one non-stop!! Oh dear~~~ missing them too much~ time’s about up!! Time to get ready to leave. (Ah~~~ my time off?) Well, I did get some!! Hahaha

Just then, got a message from home—she’s bathing the baby Up~ wow, feels so much easier now, won’t have to do much when I get back. Thanks, mom!!

Made it home Up~ Actually, I went out to get something for the baby, didn’t I? Haha, who can resist their little one~~ Also borrowed a few baby books, planning to read them to the baby later~

Still happiest when I’m around my baby. Even when I go out, my heart’s always with them... girl, do you feel the same way?
