A Unique Conversation

Nat: Mummy, can I tell u something?

Me: yes darling..

Nat: Next time can u don't give birth to me first?

Me: ..... why, don't u like to be first?

Nat: next time u let didi come out from your stomach first ok, then after that I come out.

Me: darling.. I can't do that anymore.. I can't decide. Only God can. But why don't u like to be the first child?

Nat: cos I want didi to be first

Me: why? Is it cos didi always make u angry? or you have to keep letting him do things?

Nat: ..yah... sometimes I love him, sometimes I don't. cos he make me SOOOO angry when he don't listen to me.

Me: it's ok darling.. it's good to be the eldest child.. mummy and daddy are the eldest child too.. see.. u are like mummy! isn't it good? and when u are the first child, u get to enjoy alot of things before didi u know.. u wear new clothes, play with new toys, new books.. didi always get hand me downs.. so u hv to learn to love and sayang didi okie? cos u only have 1 didi.. and next time when mummy and daddy's not around anymore.. the 2 of u hv to take care of each other. No matter what happens.

Finally.. a break at last!

After a month of planning, we've finally decided to take a short break in Siem Reap next week.

Many people asked.. why of all places.. Cambodia? Cos it's a great historical place, cos it has one of the 7 wonders of the world.. cos I just want to... getaway.

I am not keen in shopping.. and squeezing through hordes of crowds and bargain for stuff.

We thought since we seldom travel to 3rd world country.. why not give it a try. I believe it will be an eye opener. Going up the temples of Angkor wat to catch the spectacular sunrise/sunset, Quad Adventure ride through the padi fields and villages, taking Tut Tut around town.. these are just some of the activities that we will be doing. Without the 2 kids around, we are free to do such rare activities. Else, I simply can't imagine luggin them around in that kind of condition.

Will they miss mummy and daddy? Maybe.. maybe not.. told them they will be staying at mamas house next week and they sounded so excited. As if they are going on a holiday too!

Can't wait for my trip! I just pray that the mosquitoes will be kind on us. :p

Come Wat May

Our wedding march song on 29th Nov 2003 .... a reminder to the existence of our marriage


Never knew I could feel like this
Like I've never seen the sky before
Want to vanish inside your kiss
Everyday I love you more and more
Listen to my heart, can you hear it sings
Telling me to give you everything
Seasons may change winter to spring
But I love you until the end of time

Come what may, come what may
I will love you until my dying day

Suddenly the world seems such a perfect place
Suddenly it moves with such a perfect grace
Suddenly my life doesn't seem such a waste
It all revolves around you

And there's no mountain too high no river too wide
Sing out this song and I'll be there by your side
Storm clouds may gather and stars may collide
But I love you until the end of time

Come what may, come what may
I will love you until my dying day
Oh come what may, come what may
I will love you

Suddenly the world seems such a perfect place...

Come what may, come what may
I will love you until my dying day
