Random thoughts

  • I wake up and sleep with “what’s pink and orange” in my mind.

  • Bb S is still teasing my mom, not allowing her to carry but calling her sweetly and ‘tempt’ her from far.
  • November is a month of birthdays = eat, eat, eat.
  • Eat, Pray, Love is worth a watch, if you have TIME – it’s a 2.5 hours movie.
  • I hope we can go to the cinema at least 3 times a year. Once every 2 years is UNACCEPTABLE!

Peekaboo

She likes to hide behind the dining chair to peep over while I do my work, and loves it if I pretend to be surprised to see her…

Contemplation

This shot was taken when bb S was watching TV. I wonder what was going through her mind…Judging from her fingers, it appeared as if she’s contemplating… _MG_0566

Bottomed out

Bottomed out- a commonly used term in my course of work for companies starting to pick up in profits after a season of ‘lows’. Never thought it would be applicable to me. On the day my accident last week, my central nerve system sort of broke down and I accidentally bit my lip over lunch. It has since developed into a septic ulcer that requires antibiotic treatment. My speech and mood have been affected over the past few days as I couldn’t talk due to the pain. Colleagues told me that I have been jinxed given the series of ‘event’s that had happened to me recently - chicken pox, bb S falling sick, accident, back ache, knee, ulcer... But I rejected all in Jesus name, knowing that great blessings are in store for me. Yesterday I gloriously closed the chapter of my ‘episodes’ by accidentally stepping on someone’s poo in the ladies!Bizarre!! God knows how the piece of s.h.i.t landed on the floor…

Psalms 23: 4 ~ Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil; For You are with me; Your rod and Your staff, they comfort me.

Privilege of a first born

A friend of mine once laughed at parents who spend effort organising their first child’s 1st birthday… I was also in the sniggering camp wondering how some parents are able to splurge $200 on an elaborated 3D birthday cake for a child who can’t enjoy it and probably won’t remember a single second of the day.

Obviously I have switched camp, although I’m still not willing to spend $200 on a cake. But I’m imagining a colourful, fun, festive 1st birthday for bb S! Why not?? I only have ONE firstborn in my life.

Soul refreshing

Psalms 23: 3 ~ He restores my soul; He leads me in the paths of righteousness for His name’s sake

tree My soul is refreshed. I am righteous not because of my own ‘works’ but by His grace and what He has done on the cross.  Righteousness again, is not something ‘holy’ or the feeling of up and mighty. It’s knowing that we are RIGHT in His eyes. Doesn’t matter what we have done or gone through. We are still loved.  So much more by Jesus.
