Back to tippy toes

 

 Ann is back to her ballet dancing. I am glad to have a new school for her. I wouldn't say it was by chance I found the school, it was by God's grace. He doesn't hold back the best for us. The fees is cheaper than in SH and teachers more qualified. At her trial class, the teacher already said she has the talent and a very fast learner. Thank God for my little princess.

Good friends, old friends

Last Saturday I attended a reunion 'party'. We were all from the same youth group and some of us have not met for the last thirty years. Imagine the thrill, the scream, the many "wow, you still look the same." Not being diplomatic but truly, so many have not changed much. Although some have grown fat, some thin, some balding, some still full of hair…whatever it is, it was a friendship deeply embedded  in the love of God. Lots of happy faces, exchanging of hugs, handshakes…whether or not we are still sharing the same faith, the strong friendship remains intact and that can change many things.



Some shots


This is a cake


This sums it up.

When mum's back

Last two weeks in Shanghai, minimal cooking as everything were shipped back.
One month at service apartment, almost zero cooking.
Three weeks in new home, unpacking, settling and finally…


my faithful Le Creuset, stewing my first mutton stew in Singapore. Perfect for anice cool evening dinner.

The great outdoor

Every child deserve clean fresh air, the wonderful sun and the space to let their young spirit soar.




Spot Kai?

This and that

View from my apartment

Not really a great view but I love the breeze in the night. Thank God for unblocked view.


Nice little road which leads to the train station. Not safe to use at night and alone but makes a real nice walk after a meal. How many such roads are still available in Singapore and what more, in the heart of the city.

A star at my church


Yes, Li Nan Xing(LNX) was at my church.

He was there to share about his life story. In this age, it is sometimes hard to believe that a God exist and miracles do happen. It is very difficult to convince non-believers to believe such things can still happen. When one has experienced it first hand, one will truly know that HE is indeed real. That was exactly how LNX came to know God. In his desperate moment (on the brink of being declared a bankrupt), after trying out various gods and ways to solve his problems, he finally found the one true God.
“For I know the plans I have for you,” declares the LORD, “plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future.” Jeremiah 29:11 NIV

A night at the Esplanade

Our very first musical since our return. I try to make it a point to expose the kids to good musicals once a while. Dick Lee and a host of good local artiste from the art scene put up an inspiring musical. It was about each artiste's journey into the world of  theatre. It was about pursuing one's dream, the dream to be a theatrical star. Very inspiring. Some started off as backstage crew. At the end of the musical, I ask myself "what do I want to be for the next half of my life." A question which all of us should ask ourselves.


The musical


So true


A choir presentation for the public


It wasn't quite like this when we left
