I knew mom was up to something but I had not anticipated this. On Friday morning she sent us, me and Sim to town to do some groceries. Guess who do we come back to find in our lounge!? Dad! I should have known that she was planning something of this nature, she never sends us to town. Not to mention that she gave us tickets to watch movies. How is that for strange?

So dad spent the weekend here, and once again we were one big family. It was nice to see him smile and laugh again. As for mom she was the perfect host. She cooked all our favourite meals. All in all, the weekend was great! It was worth the sacrifice. Even daddy asked about Sebastian. It seems like he liked him.

But still I don’t understand why dad didn’t tell me he was coming up. No wonder I couldn’t reach him on his phone. I tried calling him but he never picked up! I should have been able to connect the dots but I was not clever enough.

There’s nothing that beats ending a week with the people you love. Laughing together, it felt really great. I wish he had stayed a bit longer, but he has got to work. It was sad to see him leave.
