Recently, CM discovered how we can get Li-Ann to go to sleep quickly. Either CM or I will lie down beside her, get her to put her hands on her chest and tell her to close her eyes. If she's really tired, she'll sleep within 5 minutes, after trying very hard to close her eyes… Continue reading Rest
Category: My Family
I’m married to a very understanding and supportive husband, Chee Meng. Chee Meng is a very family-oriented hubby who will help me out when I’m busy or tired. At times, he’ll help me take care of the children while I take some time off to meet my friends. Our children, John, Rebecca and Li-Ann LOVE their daddy A LOT!! They will yell out whenever they hear his key turn the lock. They will give thanks when he’s home. They will want to spend time with daddy. While at times I’m envious of the attention they give their father, I’m also extremely grateful for such a good relationship they have with him. We love to spend time together as a family.

I cannot claim to know how to help specifically but here are some general suggestions (I've used 'she' to simply denote the child and not specifically to refer to the… Continue reading I Am Special
To Go or Not to Go?
That was the question I was prompted to ask myself 2 weeks before registration closed for church camp from 8-11 December in Malacca. Some pull factors: -CM won't be going for the camp as he'll be overseas for a meeting -It will be in Malaysia, not Singapore. I have to take a coach with the… Continue reading To Go or Not to Go?
