Journal Entry May 14th 2012

Its just one day after Mother's Day and i couldn't be happier~you ask why?
My precious little son made a couple of cards for me and flowers for mothers day from many of his classes in church~The "Rainbows "Class and at the library with Miss Kiran~
My little prince made a wonderful card and said to me:
"Mummy ,i have a surprise for you..." so i said...
"What is it tata?"...and he unleashed the card from his tiny back and gave me a huge hug and a kiss and said
"Happy Mother's Day...i love you Mummy" awwwww!!!!tears welled my eyes just hear those words from my little prince~so we ended up hosting Mother's Day~ mummy(grandma) mys sisters,friends and all our children~
Awesome day it was,with lots of food,fun and fellowship-not forgetting the memories~both remembering and creating-Thank you God for all~

Journal Entry...April 15th 2012

This is the day that the Lord has made...we will rejoice and be glad in it...!!!
My precious son is making steady progress in doing most of his chores and duties independently and that gives me mixed feelings. Mixed feeling because as much as am glad that he is developing well and able to do stuff for himself ; i am also wondering how & when he grew so fast...where time went?...It was just the other day he was one week old and i thanked God that he was one week old...now he doesn't want me to accompany him to the bathroom...wearing his clothes...he says "i can do all this by myself", he feeds himself...OK even showering he says he can take care of himself....OK...so i sigh and thank God together
Johari also likes to spend some time at the library playing games and reading.
Another favorite place again is Chuck E Cheeses and Toys R us-
Now he wants to help me with Putting the air in the wheels at the gas station and also cooking-
Well , my precious son...all those are great mile stones of growing up...i just hope that you will retain the same skills even as you grow older...as usual i love you as i always will and i wish all the best for you my dear Johari

April the 9th 2012

It is clear that from the last time i updated this page...it has been running...helter skelter trying so hard to balance life and work...so there's been a little gap...but all is well....
So what have we been up to...my baby boy and I...?Johari turned 4 February 17th 2012 and boldly let me know the following morning that he was now a big boy..."Mummy i can brush my teeth..all by myself...i am now a big boy.." i said OK...sweetie ..go ahead and gave him a chance to exercise his growth...as you can imagine i have been hearing lots of that ever since he turned four.
So the one million dollar question...what am i getting for my birthday? So he went from the Wii, to the X-box, to The PSP, etc name them...Finally we had to settle for just one...because we don't need to move Toys R us into our house by buying all the toys.. besides i don't have share anyway...so i spend there sparingly...So my little man got the X-Box and he has never been so excited...he couldn't wait to "Just Dance",a little bit of  "Zumba" and "Kinect adventures"-He is having lots of fun with the gaming system and of course hes keeping fit and teaching mummy a few dance moves...
As he gears up for school..which begins next year September 2013...he will have had enough time with his playmate and hopefully he will have learnt to keep fit and schedule time for everything ...prioritizing as need be. Am truly so very proud of my little young man..his language is coming up good and guess what he knows what Squirrels eat...(Acorns)...i don't know where he learnt that but hey am an impressed mama...so proud of you my Lil prince Mr.Precious...you are awesome and God bless you as always-
Mama will always love you!!XOXOXO

Welcome 2012!!

So its the beginning of another great year 2012- is the year that the Lord has enabled us to see-we are forever grateful-this year my precious Lil man will turn four years-you notice its hard to narrate any story without mentioning him-its because he is such a blessing to me-he fills my days....
On new years eve he was up till late waiting to witness the ball drop as he counted 10...9...8...7 all the way to 0.Wow...Happy New Year!! 2012~
I was rather impressed at the determination he had-hoping it will stay on because it can take him places-
So this year...we are expectant of great things-for this far the Lord has brought us-at first the journey looked meaningless but now its starting to form shape and we are hopeful that all will be well especially when we understand where our help comes from always-

So happy new year to you my son....another year ...another opportunity for us to bond and live to tell....i love you as always and wish you all the best as usual~

Feliz Navidad & Happy New 2012!!

Oh well, we thank God for the Christmas day  that just ended in the last couple of days-What my wonderful son knows for sure is that Jesus died for the sins of himself and Dyllan his cousin-at least that's what he says when i ask him who Jesus died on the cross for-so i keep telling him its for all of us but for some reason he is stuck with the two of them only...so cute:)
So thank God he has not really got acquainted with Santa Claus and his chimney stories and delivering of gifts-so this year i had it easy-thank God because all he wanted was candy canes...am i not lucky and he found lots of that under the Christmas tree on 25th morning~
I also took him to church for the Christmas play and he hang out with Batman himself, Sponge bob-whom he said was too big, Frosty the snow man who was too quiet!!
So now we thank God for the past year 2011 that was full of blessings and great milestones for our family-full of sufficient grace, unconditional love and renewed mercies-we look forward to a completely new year- still on the roller skates-2012-when he turns 4 years old-and enjoy our adventures together and also with our larger family members-
Baby boy...we are still on....don't forget to enjoy every moment in 2012 just like you did in 2011!
I love you as always~ Happy New Year 2012!!!

So he tells me that this time he will not be scared of Santa!!:) we will see especially when we do the photo with Santa.
Apart from that, my little Prince is doing great and getting a lot of help from his cousins Dyllan & Sydney who are his 2 main teachers!
He is learning the alphabet good and his numbers too-well done little man-you're a wonder on transit-a miracle in progress-come September 2013 you will be so ready for school/kindergarten your teachers will be impressed-so lets keep working at it-we are in this thing together-we are a team and am there for you-to support you in  all steps of this way/journey!
Go go baby boy-you are so smart and i can already tell by the intelligent questions you ask, the conversations we have and the actions there of.God bless you as always-every step of the way-meanwhile we have to get more candy canes for the Christmas tree!! :))

Up to speed 3 years , 7months old...we are going places!!!

So here we are once again....going places...growing well and giving life its best short!!!living our best life now...we couldn't have had it any better....we are here for such a time as this...things are great and God is good all the time.

My precious little gem is mile-stoning excellently...all pieces are falling in place....he has started writing his alphabet and drawing smiley faces and angry faces. H e loves to go to the library to play his club penguin, sonic, motor bike games and lately he is surprising me with cooking games...ooh...i cant wait to get that help in cooking :-) and dish washing and general cleaning up!!!

This is also the month, September, whereby he has joined a new  club in church called "Rainbows" .He is having lots of fun especially with the theme statement "Rainbows are helpers".So every time he would like to do something like play with the water, he will tell me that rainbows are helpers and he would like to help me with the dishes....aha...my little man is smart!!

So the Rainbows meet once a week on Wednesday at church.He loves his new club.We thank God for that too as this is introducing him to Bible verses!!So i go "the memory verse is....The Lord has chosen....?"then he says "you".its great!

Lately he has also been doing lots of gymnastics....yes on my couch...one day he went upside down,i said.."tata...you are up side down and 2 seconds later he went..."mummy is this up -side up?i just smiled!!so thoughtful and smart!!his though process amazes me already!!he also knows how to identify similar things especially cars...he says ..."this car looks like your car mummy" and more often than not its usually true!:-)

Tata...you fill my days especially the dull ones because you create so much fun,laughter and humor!!i love you and thank God for you!!
