Happy 43th Birthday Hubby !

It’s been a while since I last wrote on this blog. So here I am again. 😊

As we closed the August chapter and started a new page in September, I wanted to document a little memory from hubby’s birthday.

We celebrated it in a very simple way. Nothing fancy, just spending time with the people we care about and love.



Hubby took the day off, and after sending the kids to school, we headed to Johor Bahru. We had dim sum for breakfast while waiting for our car to be washed. After that, we went to Plentong for some pickleball and did a one-hour drill with the ball machine. Just the two of us, doing something we both enjoy.

We then had a quick lunch at AEON Mall before heading back to Singapore. I had an evening class, while hubby needed to accompany our youngest for his pickleball training in the afternoon.

At night, we had a simple celebration at home with the kids — just a birthday cake, candles and family time.





Over the weekend, we played pickleball again, this time with some of our close friends. We had dinner together afterwards and celebrated his birthday there too.





I guess as we grow older, birthdays feel a little different. It’s less about having a fancy celebration or something nice to show on social media. We appreciate the simple things more — having time together, being surrounded by people we love, and being content with what we have.

Most of all, we thank God for His continuous providence, for good health, and for the love and harmony in our family.

Nothing fancy, but more than enough. ❤️

Chinese New Year in Jakarta (22 - 28 Jan 2020)

This year, we went back to Jakarta for Chinese New Year and we spent 6 nights there. One of the nights, we had staycation at Pullman Ciawi, which's new hotel in Bogor. On the eve of Chinese New Year, we had reunion dinner at Sentral Restaurant. The next day we had a family gathering with mommy's sibling and their children at Puri Mall. On Sunday, we went to Kuntum Farmfield and spent the rest of the weekend in the hotel and had fun there. The hotel resort is huge and had a lot of entertainment for the kids. It's a pleasant and memorable sweet escape and thanks God that everyone's in good health.

Reset to Zero Ground

Last week was an emotional roller coaster, as I mentioned in my previous blog . On September 28th, I received a revelation: my period arrived eight days earlier than expected according to my app. I was overjoyed, believing that God had answered my prayers. This felt like a sign that being a stay-at-home mom was my next role. I had promised God that if I wasn’t pregnant, I would be willing to follow His will, including nurturing my three boys at home. My first reaction was one of disbelief: "Really? Is this it, God? The end of my career and all my hard work?" Then, I met Tante Elaine, a speaker from Indonesia invited to discuss the importance of being fruitful. Her life story resonated deeply with me and provided another affirmation of my path. She reassured me that I am multitalented and that God might have plans for me that are greater than I can imagine for His Kingdom. She encouraged me to be patient during this process, reminding me that just because we can’t see the frui...
