Something abt uS: I married the love of my life at 25, and thus began our journey together as a family. Documenting this blog so that we can remember the journeys we go thru together; surviving parenthood, infertility, teenagehood and many more..

lena is feeling emo and sad..
Yes, I'm going on another trip again.. and alone without the village.. The days that lead to the final D - day were erectic and cranky .. somehow uncle pig could fill the vibes and all he did was being tolerant and tolerant..
I'm truly blessed to have him .. He really made the best of me, and if he didn't , he will cover my flaws such tt no one will know.. aw...
I'm going to Cape Town with my colleagues , bringing along my parents as well.. had wanted to encash the tickets if not for the fact that my parents were extremely keen in South Africa .. and I thought since they were still fit and healthy and if it's within my means, shld bring them travel whenever I can ..
Having said tt , I still cried.. and cried hard did I when I made grace zzz tonight.. she was being extremely sweet today when she kept pointing to my eyes and say "eyes" and saying "high 5" with her raised palm.. miraculously all 3 girls zz before 9 pm and uncle pig was able to send me to the airport.. and here I am composing this post while making my way there..
Dear God, I pray that You protect this household while I'm not ard. . I pray that You grant me a good trip there with my parents too.. and thay the girls be obedient and cooperative while I'm not around.. God I'm thankful for all the blessings you have given me and I pray that You protect me thru this trip.. its been more then 10 yrs since I flew to somewhere so far away fr uncle pig for so long.. The last was NL.. and that was before knowing you God.. In Jesus name I pray, amen!

Precious Sundays
Lazing in the car coz Vera is asleep and we are supposed to be attending a baby shower of his relatives. .
I took the excuse to be the "car attendant " coz I was simply tired of socialising his relatives for the entire month of cny. They have reached my threshold for the year and any excuse to avoid is greatly appreciated.
Our relatives gatherings are kinda different. I only see most of my relatives on cny/funerals/weddings while for him, before I came into his world, his relatives parties/gatherings can average abt twice a mth! Yes, u can say they are quite closely knitted. But not really actually. . Which is the part tt I don't understand. . Why do people hang out together simply bcoz they are distantly related? For me, my weekends are v precious and shld strictly be spend on people worth spending on. No time (strictly) shld be spend on socialising with people that aren't impt at all..
Yes I'm emotional. .yes I'm pissed.. its true when they say when u marry him, u marry the entire kampung! So yes, this is just a ranting post.. and much as I don't like, I hv to tolerate tt the way Cantonese greet their granny and mama sounds the same..it gets confusing and I'm jus pissed..
Argh. . Shall stop for now else I don't think I can breathe. .
P/s: just change my hp recently and wanna test if it's easier to blog via this too..
