Weddings coming up

Finally, youngest bro wedding date locked down and baby sis wedding date had somewhat locked down. Both are going to happen in 2013.

I have one inactive January groom and one proactive October Bride, preparing their wedding. Exciting isn't it. Seeing messages like "kor, want to meet up videography together." and he replied "ok". That's all.. I know, i know that's what men do isn't it. Wedding is every bride dream and every groom tomb. So reaction so different.

Last week, accompanied my baby sis for bridal shops sourcing and trying on gown FOR her. The reason she gave is it's very tiring trying and ended no energy and time to see others. I do agreed with her, still remembered my time, after trying the 4th or 5th gown, I'm already like brain dead and take which others says nice and no longer can really visualize the gown on me. Ended up, kind of regret for the evening gown.

After 5 years, putting on gown again, me and sis first sight of love in this gown. A heavy gown with many details and made me looked slim. Hus says I look good in this gown.

Janelle Improvement

Praise the Lord. I know God is putting his work in progress in Janelle. We have been seeing improving in Janelle these few weeks. Looking forward to have more to share with everyone the goodness of God.

Last Friday morning, when i walked Janelle to the door for school, she turned and hugged me, says "bye bye" with hand waving to me. So sweet of her... That's melted me and brighten my Friday instantly. This is her first time doing this and yes, words started to come out from her and she did it with correct purpose and meaning.

Now, she started to "sing" songs.
At times, she will voice out the last word of the lyrics of the songs.. For example: There were nine in a bed the little one said "Roll over, roll over"So they all rolled over and one fell out. and Janelle will says "Out" :)...Or sometimes she will sing along with the song with words that we don't understand.

In school, maid had feedback that Janelle has improvement. She willingly to sit down more (maybe 5 minutes more) to listen to the teachers instead of walking around. And she is now sitting down in the chair and finished her lunch, no more walking around and need helper to catch her back to the chair.
Thank you for those who had prayed for Janelle. God had heard our prayers and he is putting his works in Janelle. Amen.

My #2

Finally, i have submitted to sponsored a child from World Vision with a $45 per month to help the community build a transforming platform by providing access to nutritious food and clean water, education, basic healthcare, and opportunities to economic and leadership development.  Had been wanted to do it, but didnt dare to commit as this is a long commitment. I saw the asking for help ad in IMPACT newsletter last weekend and sharing with husband and friends about my thoughts but i was still hesitating.

Another wedding @ Singapore Marriott

2nd weekend at Singapore Marriott Hotel for wedding. Congratulation to K & T, finally completing the courtship chapter and going to marriage after 13 long years. This is another ex-colleague of mine, the crazy batch of friends where we used to hang up at st-james for drinks after work, the crazy things we did in Beijing trip and she is a friend who enjoys Hi-Tea. :)

T had put in lots of effort for her wedding, she added-on with engaged live band, instant photo-shoot and desert bar. Made me feel bad for just giving a market rate red-packet. :P

We had much fun with the instant photo-shoot especially with long time no see ex-colleagues...

Good Bye Pacifier

Praise the Lord, we have finally says good bye to Pacifier.

We had been trying to quit her from her pacifier many times but never success. Without the pacifier, she cant sleep and once she over tired  and she will has fits. People blamed me for introducing pacifier to Janelle, and people blaming me too for not giving her Pacifier and caused her overtired.

Blessing in disguise, because of HFMD, she started to reject pacifier due to discomfort. Followed the flow, I decided to go for another attempt to get her quit the pacifier. Managed to waive off for the night but maid having problem to get Janelle to take her afternoon nap. Ended up these 2 weeks, i have to put her to bed myself, 2 hrs each time with songs and prayers. When i was about to give up, the only shop that carries the brand of the pacifier closed down and mum & babes discontinue to carry the brand. Told my maid she had no choice but have to do it. 

And Yes, Janelle did it, manage to fall asleep on her own without overtired. Praise the Lord.
