Oh mine, i am now offcially 29 years old.The big three is there to welcome me next year.I cant help but to agree im really old,becomng more and more aunty these days.For the past ten years,life was not easy more me as i was going through my youth, i spent so much time nursing broken hearts,coping with all the exams from NIE and SIm,lotsa of challenges from work and the worst thing was losing my two loved ones.(I miss them dearly).However our God is mercy and kind ,he has indeed blessed me abundantly over these ten years.I got my Diploma,my degree,married a wonderful man,own a small but lovely place,have the most adorable son,a stable job,love and care frm friends and sisters and a safe country to live in.What more can i ask more??God is good ,all the time.

Anyway, this year is my second year celebrating my birthday with baby Jairus,as our group is really expanding fast and the group size is now so big,it can be real challenging to arrange makan sessions with all the kiddos.Im glad i went ahead with holding a BBQ at Changi Csc club,it has been real long since we last had our BBQ session.The kiddos had fun playing at the playground,swimming and playing with the bubbles and sparklers. Baby Jairus is now at the age he doesnt really knw how to play with others, so he spent most of the time playing on his own or watching the older kids playing.The weather was great though it was pouring that afternoon itself.Amen,Praise the lord!I feel that maybe we shd get something for the gals too since they are such great pals and ying agreed as well hence we gt our dear frens some cups which i hope they will use it at work or home.Well once again,it was a great party with awesome company n food.A big thank you to all the husbands for bearing with the heat and standing there for hrs to bbq the food for everyone.

16 months and

Baby JAirus is now 16 mths,where did the time go?this poor boy has been hospitalized for the third time since he is born  and we are praying very hard that he will grow up to be a healthy boy.hmmm 16 months and still not talking?personally i do understand boys tend to speak later but when i read about how other kinds including boys at his age has started to talk i do wonder is there anything wrong with baby JAirus,especially just the other day the {D mentioned he should be saying 3 words now.And i tend to get really annoyed when ppl around me comment about him not speaking and how i shd be teaching him.Maybe im too sensitive or defensive but i really do feel uncomfortable when others comment abt him not speaking

Another concern here is Baby Jairus is really shy and afraid of loud noise.He is very selective when it comes to strangers and he can be extreme shy n uncomfortable when dealing with crowds,hence he simplay hate all the animals shows we have watched for the past year. and yes i finally can understand how A feel when she suspects her daughter had some special needs,A few of my friends encounter the same problems when their child startd speaking late and they chose to take leave to stay at home to interact and teach the child.Perhaps i  should really consider that as well.

Well the little one seems to be in love with THOMAS the train lately,just the other day when we brought him to kiddy palace he was so attracted to thomas and spent squite some time talking to the toys and when we brought him to other section to look at other toys,immediately he ran back to thomas again haha.that sight was really cute.Thank God he did not kick a fuss when we left the shop.on the other hand maybe he should fuss because daddy and mummy were about to relent and purchase the toy for him.Anyway we just bought him a Thomas and train set over the weekend,we hope he does not destroy that just like what he did with the ELC train set which was his birthday present.

May God continue to bless and oveflow Jairus with his wisdom, his favour,his grace and good health always,Amen!

Sigh,SIgh,SIgh

Dear GOD please enlighten me,i really need to make a decision soon,at the rate i visit the doctor and jairus visit the doctor,i will really break down I am really tired of worrying about my students,my marking,my work,my child my family...i used to love those big eyes of mine but these days they look so weary all day long and the dark eye rings seem to be getting worse and worse.I have been falling ill so so often that im am so embarrased to take MC for i feel bad to get other teachers to relief me 'and fear that i shortchange my pupils.MY nose has been bad and munn n JAirus have also been taking turns falling sick.Just the other day after the qunicy hotel stay,Alot of mozzie bites red spots starting surfacing on jairus body they look swollen and it was everywhere on his body i cant help but to rush him to Mount Alvernia however doc could not really tell whats wrong but only prescribe us with medicine for his bad runny nose.However the following ,the spots did not subside day and i had to send him to SBCC and the PD mentioned is hives though we do not know what trigger it and gave him so medication.Thank GOD the cold and red spots went away after a few days.

Then for the next few weeks, i had asthma attack,2 UTI infections which hurts my kidney,fever,unusual red patches on my body,bad body aching,bad headaches for days.and yes it all happens within 4 weeks, and that os excluding Jairus he was just hospitalised again the otehr day and it hurts me to see him undergoing IV drip and struuggling and crying each time he takes the medicine and is time to take his temperature.I have been to the doc so many times and spent to much money on the bills and recently the doc commented i am worn out,but how not to be when there is so much stress at home and work and im deprived of quality zzz,

THis has been a really terrible term for my health,is it showing signs that i shd change job?will i be able to find another job when i leabe teaching?should i stay at home to look after my own kid?am i shortchanging my students in school?have i brought inconvenience to my colleagues?

LORD i need an answer,please show me your way and will,,,,

ST Junior turns 15!

Little Jairus is now a super active todder and many comment he looks exactly like papa!he walks and moves around really fast these days and yes he has earn a few bumps on his big head lately after falling off the sofa a couple of times.My little boy simply loves to walk on the edge of the sofa and nxt u knw what happen...He loves to play with shoes these days and will often pass u his shoes asking us to put it on for him so that he can go gaigai....we finally bought a safety lock for the shoes cabinet and toilet bowls haha.

Poor Baby has fallen ill a couple of times lately as both daddy and i have been taking turns to fall sick and little junior always catch the bug from us.he was coughing and sneezing so badly on a few occassions and i was too ill and tired to look after him.He also had many red spots on his body just the otehr day and i was so worried not knowing what was those as one doc said is dust mites bites the other say is hives and might be some allery reaction...anyway after the medication im glad he has recovered..Thank God for my mum that she is always here to take care of Jairus and us without any complaints.I love my mummy sooooo much... 

Jairus has so much teeth these days and i dont really dare to place my fingers in to check hw many teeth he has or clean his mouth because it really hurts when he bites...hee hee...

PRay that God will continue to bless the family with good health and let Jairus be a blessongs to those around him.Amen

Happy Blessed Birthday To Hubby!

Well, This is the second year we are celebrating daddy birthday with baby Jairus.Last year at this time he was only a 3 months old baby and we have no idea how time flies,he is now an 17 months active little bud.Last year as JAirus was still young we only went out for a Japanese Buffet which ended up with him crying almost half the dinner..This year i had a hard time thinking where to celebrate Hubby birthday.This man of mine definitely deserve a pamper,He has been sucha wonderful darling and a dedicated daddy.Definitely A man of few words but a dependable and responsible man.I cant imagine my life without him,im so glad he is mine.WInk WInk.

Anyway after searching high and low i managed to to book a weekend stay at QUINCY HOTEL for Daddy Birthday and YES we brought the little bud along. Jairus was so happy to be there,he was busy walking and exploring the place and yes the toilet was definitely his favourite spot,you can find him suspending himself at the bathtub or trying his luck to fish his hand into the toilet bowl. haha.Well we headed to town after we had the dinner.The meal was part of the package and there was quite a long list of food for us to choose and yes we went for the pasta and beef steak. There was also free flow of wines and soft drinks.Dinner was great!Thumbs up.After which we started walking to town to shop,and yes we did feel like some tourists at some point of time. The next day after our breakfast,we brought the little bud to the hotel swimming pool,i like the place as it was really quiet,mummy here is rather introvert and hate crowds especially when i do not hav a fantastic figure to flaunt at the pool,haha so this is just the prefect place for us.However  The water was rather cold and we were kinda contemplating whether to bring Jairus for a swim as he was having runny nose.In the end we decided to let him go for a short dip. I always love seeing him in the pool with daddy,he will be smiling non stop and this is definitely one of the father and son bonding activity!Baby Jairus used to be really scared of water,but now he has sort of overcome his fear,he loves to play with water even though he still doesnt like it when water touches his head.

After the swim,we went back and start to pack out lugguage,Baby Jairus was tired from the play and took a nap.so is time daddy and mummy to get some rest too,mummy is also sick and was unable to go to work for the past two days and it doesnt help that Jairus is also coughing very badly at night..

Soon,we had lunch at the hotel and check out from the hotel.9/10 for the stay.I would have given full marks if not they kept me waiting for45 mins when we check it,overall it was pleasant experience!Hope Daddy enjoyed the little surprise frm Jairus and I!

14 months accomplisment!

Baby Jairus just turned 14 mths few days back and im glad im able to witness another milestone of his.This month he starts to walk without support and he giggles at every baby step he takes,i guess he finds walking really fun.He hardly crawl around these days and often u can spot him walking and exploring every corner of the house.He looks really cute when he walk however he doesnt feel very comfortable walking with shoes on,i guess he really need more practices and encouragement.Baby Jairus has been exremely close to me these days as i guess i have been spending more time with him lately since is the sch holiday also our family trip to Bangkok has indeed brought the family closer. I pray that when i return to work next week Jairus will not have not withdrawal symptoms or so ,Hopefully his grandparents can divert his attention.ANyway Bringing him overseas is a challenge these days but im glad we made it and by God's grace he behaved relatively well on the plane.

The little one also loves to clap his hands these days and he simply loves to smile and laugh,a very cheery baby indeed!He is also very vocal and expressive he will expresss himself through baby language or cries.The other day in Bangkok,Papa and i brought him to watch Kungfu panda 2, and he was crying away when he saw the evil looking vilians and fighting scenes,though Po is very adorable,i guess the show was too "violent"for him.Thank God the cinema was rather empty on a weekday.Jairus seems to hate or fear loud noise more,he starts to wail and appear to be very scared when i try to vacuum the floor or use the hair dryer.I hope this little one will overcome all these fears soon.May God continue to bless him with good health and keep him away from evil spirits.Amen.

what a Day...

Term 2 week 10 is the day i long for as it is the last day of semester however i am not elated at all.So far i guess this is the worst day of the year and i hope history wont repeat.I actually banged the car in the church carpark and goodness me i did not even see the pillar right in front of me,im not too sure was the carpark too dark or i was not paying attention at all,and just when i thought only the headlights were gone while i was making my way home i actually felt something dragging the ground.To my horror the whole bumper came off and there was no way i can drive the car home.i had to call a few numbers before i got my car tow away to the workshop.
And i had to rush back home to fetch joey to the vet.She was supposed to see the bone specialist to see if she needed an operation  and also to have her teeth scaled.At last i manage to get to the clinic. The vet mentioned this would be joey last teeth scaling as she is really very old and is not recommeded to be under GA again.My heart sank once again.my baby girl is turning 14 and seems like she will be leaving me soon.After a few hrs of wait,the clinic finally called and im glad joey is awake,Amen.i spoke to the vet and she told me she extracted 2 teeth and what came worse was when she showed me her x ray results.joey bones are degenarating her spine,.hips and knees are giving her problems.this time i really cant hold my tears back,she was just a little puppy when i brought her back and i cant believe she is so old now.Doc recommene accupunture or cartrophen jabs for her to strenghten her muslces and also gave us some painkiller to give her as an when she need.

I feel really lousy today.the accident is going to cost quite a bit and now i may lose my dog anytime.I pray that Lord Jesus wont take baby joey away from us so soon.HEal her and take away all the pain and discomfort she has to go through.
