The "mother" day 3

The third day, "mother" is feeling a bit tired since did not has a good sleep last night. Because of the fever, Isaac woke up at 6 am and had to give him another dose of Tylenol. He went back to sleep for two more hours.

Eunice and Isaac were very good today, they drank lots of water and I gave them some special treat...which is M & M. So they love water so much la....

Eunice and Isaac asked me several times today," Daddy, two more days, mommy will be back, right?". I guess they are missing mommy la.

The "mother" day 2

The second day started early... Eunice and Isaac woke up @ 7:30 am. After egg and bread breakfast, they were asking what to do, the best thing to handle this is TV. So I let them to watch their favorite TV cartoons and I tried to wash dishes and do laundry.

After half and hour TV, they were willing to turn off the TV and play. I thought of a good idea to let them play the "ball ball pool" (see picture). They spent hours in and out the pool.

Eunice and Isaac wanted to have chicken feet and BBQ pork bun for lunch, so we went for dim sum in Richmond Then we went to their favoirte pet shop to see cat, dog, fish, rabbit, birdy,.. We also went to Toy's R us to kill some of their energy.

After having a nice dinner with Harry and his family, we went home. Then I noticed Isaac has fever, so I gave him some Motrin and he went to bed. Hopefully he will be better tomorrow morning.

The "mother" day 1

Today is the first day I have to be a mother. Drop off Isaac to school in the morning. Then bring Eunice and Isaac to their swimming classes. After lunch, we went to pick up a pair of training wheel for the bicycle..

For dinner...is the left over from last night. I promised Eunice and Isaac will have something new for tomorrow dinner.

Anyway, I guess I past the first day challenege! But four more to come..

Everyday is a new challenge

Recently, I really feel that everyday is a new challenge, a new start for me.

Lots of things to plan, lots of deadlines to meet, lots of worries to handle, lot of problems to solve, lots of uncertainties to face....But one voice within my heart keeps on reminding me....Slow down, re-focus and rest in me!

It seems to me...I have to listen to this voice more often.

Tired....wish to be slow down

So tired recently ...just wish ...I can slow down and re-focus...

Lord, please listen my prayer and give me the strength that I need

Are you lukewarm??

This passage came into my mind when I was sitting in the morning service...

"To the angel of the church in Laodicea write:
These are the words of the Amen, the faithful and true witness, the ruler of God's creation. I know your deeds, that you are neither cold nor hot. I wish you were either one or the other! So, because you are lukewarm—neither hot nor cold—I am about to spit you out of my mouth. You say, 'I am rich; I have acquired wealth and do not need a thing.' But you do not realize that you are wretched, pitiful, poor, blind and naked. I counsel you to buy from me gold refined in the fire, so you can become rich; and white clothes to wear, so you can cover your shameful nakedness; and salve to put on your eyes, so you can see. Those whom I love I rebuke and discipline. So be earnest, and repent. Here I am! I stand at the door and knock. If anyone hears my voice and opens the door, I will come in and eat with him, and he with me. To him who overcomes, I will give the right to sit with me on my throne, just as I overcame and sat down with my Father on his throne. He who has an ear, let him hear what the Spirit says to the churches." (Revelation 3)


It is a good reminder from God. Are we always in a lukewarm stage? Where is our "on fire" heart for Him?

Virus and bacteria ... I hate you

I have not updated my blog for a while...it is because I am so tired to write. Isaac and Eunice has been on and of sick for a while. Eunice has been sick since last Friday. She has fever for couple days already. Isaac also caught the flu from Eunice and he has fever since this morning. Hopefully he will be better soon.

Why we are sick? If there is no virus or bad bacteria, Flora and I will have a better sleep during night time.
