At first I thought the sudden announcement about the early CNY holidays for kindergartens and Primary schools was a joke being forwarded around on a WhatsApp group, till it was actually announced by the school and I rushed to get our calendar from the kitchen to see what I had planned over the coming few… {Read More}
My ‘Big’ Little Boy
My ‘Big’ Little boy Almost touching 10 Has a smile that can dazzle And a heart that can melt. He stands up tall Almost up to my eyes His pants are getting shorter We wear the same shoe size! He tries his new-found strength on me Gives me a solid rugby tackle And when I… {Read More}
“What should I post on Facebook?”
Honestly I did not realise how difficult it would be to get back to my “virtual” life! I’ve been off Facebook, Twitter and Instagram for over 3 weeks now. Yes it was intentional- to give myself some space, some room to breathe, some time to think, some thoughts to reflect upon – without having the… {Read More}
Our East Coast Road Trip
It started with my older son qualifying for a summer program in the United States! We were only too happy to let him have this wholistic independent experience in one of the residential centre campuses on the East coast. We chose Pennsylvania as the centre for this 3-week program due to its proximity to one of our close relatives. And what… {Read More}
3 days in New York
NEW YORK! The most exciting destination on our US itinerary for summer…for my boys especially as it was their first trip to the Big Apple City!

And I had been having a lower… {Read More}
Slip on those shoes!
It’s the middle of June. Less than two weeks to go for the school break! Last month of the last term already? It’s unbelievable how time just flies, without a care, without a thought about those who might want to hang in there for some more time. Savour those special days, those moments that made the… {Read More}

So here we are…at the very end of our Easter holiday…having had a great workout session at the gym this morning to awaken those sluggish muscles, followed by a sumptuous breakfast from the wonderful buffet spread, soaking in the warm service provided by the resort staff who seem to genuinely mean when they say a “Good Morning”… {Read More}
Help…. I have a teenager!
As a young mother I used to wonder what would it be like to have my child all grown up. What would he look like, how would he behave? What would he grow up to be? Doctor, lawyer, astronaut or a football star? Watching my baby wake up just then, rolling his head from side to side… {Read More}
Trick Eye Museum Hong Kong – a review
I had received an invitation to visit Trick Eye Museum sometime in November last year but our weekends were so packed with the boys’ activities, my work-related bazaars, my husband’s rugby commitments, plus planning for a big upcoming family event, that we could never find the time or the energy to enjoy this little treat together. Turned out for the best though for… {Read More}
