Stranded

Dear Skyler,

You were left 'stranded' after you came back from school today. However, you were a real trooper! You weren't fazed at all and calmly got yourself back to our flat without much ado.

Popo and Gong-gong had come to watch you while Papa and Mama went out to work. They were taking care of mei-mei while you were at school and when mei-mei fell asleep, they took the chance to nap too. However, they overslept and didn't go down in time to meet your bus when you came home.

The bus auntie waited sometime for someone to get you but when nobody turned up after a while, she accompanied you up to our flat. We weren't sure if she had our address on the bus with her or if you had informed her which floor we lived on and you were the one who brought yourself back home. We asked you at night and you said that you were the one who told her which floor we lived on.

We do hope that the bus auntie has our contact information with her on the bus though in case something happened, it would be easier for them to contact us. However, Papa thinks that this auntie may not have it otherwise, she could have telephoned our place to ask where we were and why we weren't there to pick you up. Oh well...

You've also memorised Mama's telephone number so well that you now and then will telephone her when you get home just to update her on your having returned home. It's so cute when you get on the phone.

Papa and Mama love you lots!
