I was chatting with Daniel about what he would be getting for his brother on his birthday. He said he had no money to buy anything.I reminded him that he had been saving 20 cents everyday since Term 1 and should have close to $10. He turned around and tell me," Mummy, that is for saving, not for spending!" .
I am astounded! He is better at money management than me!

My youngest is twelve years apart from my eldest, but they have a special bond between them!
Daniel went up to Jayne and wish her all the best for April.Jayne was puzzled and asked why. Somehow Daniel remembered that she will be teaching the K2 Sunday School class in April. We are amazed at his thoughtfulness and excellent memory. Jayne is so touched by his kindness!
Right now we are still praying about her application to NUS. There are so many options, it is difficult to choose. Pray that we will be sensitive to God's leading in her life!

JoyAnn loves anything purple! She is our family's best trained musician; oboe n piano. She did well for her 'O' level and is in a JC of her choice. We are very proud of her. She is very diligent in her work and very compassionate about the needs of people around her. Since young, her primary school teachers had been telling us that she is very special. All the kids would rush up the bus when they were going for some excursion, but she would let others go up first. Her kind character was acknowledged when she was awarded the Singa Award both in Primary and Secondary School .

She was upset with me for getting some pokemon balls for Daniel. She felt that I had double standard. When they were young, I did not allow them to watch pokemon. I search myself to see if I had 'backslided'! My conclusion is that when I stopped my kids from watching, it was out of love for them. When I bought the toy for Daniel, it is also out of love for him. Maintaining uniformity in my expressions of love just cannot be the measure. Honestly, this is from my heart!

My soon-to-be 14 son! Very interested in aeroplanes. He can even update daddy about the different planes used by different countries and all sorts of technical terms associated with planes that I had never heard of!?! Nice to see him develop a passion for something. Hopefully this will help him focus on what he needs to work on in his studies so that he can pursue his passion and dream!
