Easter Monday Date ( 2 April 2018)

Hubby was on holiday on Easter Monday so we had a chance to go for a date. The night before, we have been searching for nice breakfast place but seems that most of the places are closed on Monday. So last minute we decided to go to Sentosa Cove and see what they had. It' s a quiet morning and fortunately some restaurants opened so we chose Big Fat Mama Restaurant that served breakfast in an affordable price. We saw all angmoh, no asian so hubby was jokingly asking me whether we brought our passport. The area was more like Australia than Singapore. We had a nice hearty breakfast, greek omelete and tropical waffle while enjoying the view. Thank you Lord for his presence as the part of my life. Thank you for the love Thank you for the providence

On March, we had our monthly couple date. We watched Red Sparrow in the late night while the kids had a sleep with iik Intan. It's a quick date. Thank you God for the precious time and for sending an angel to take care of our kids while we are on a date

Chinese New Year from time to time

As we are closing to celebrate our 10 years anniversary, it would be nice if we also have some flashback during the past years from just the two of us until five of us in the family

Welcome Year of Dog 2018

After so many years we celebrated Chinese New Year at Singapore, this year we decided to go back to Jakarta for reunion dinner and Chinese New Year celebration. We were leaving on Wednesday Valentine's Day Feb 14th, 2018 and his parents picked us up. On the eve of chinese new year, we had reunion dinner at Grand Central Restaurant with hubby's family then we visited his grandmother's house and distributed the red packets. The next day while the kids were having afternoon nap, we sneaked out to Central Park mall and had a couple time. We shopped for clothes and had afternoon tea at Waroeng Kopi. On the second day of Chinese New Year, we met my brother's family at Taman Anggrek and had lunch there. And on the third day of Chinese New Year, we had lunch with hubby's old school friends at Central Restaurant. It was a nice feeling gathering with our loved ones and family especially during reunion dinner and chines...

The Challenges in Our Marriage Life

I decided to write about the challenges in our marriage life. There's no happily ever after like fairy tales or perfect marriage portrayed like in the movie. Eventhough we have a good marriage, we still face these challenges until today. 1. Shall or Shall Not Talk In marriage life,  communication is one of the common challenges that every couple experiences. In our case when we feel that our partner doesn't do right or please us, we tend to keep it to ourselves instead of talking about it because either we want to avoid the conflict or create unnecessary argument. We don't want our partner to look at us as a petty person for such trivial matters. But these tendency to keep it to our selves become time bomb that will burst anytime when we couldn't take it anymore. In the end it will create never ending arguments and disagreement and both of us start to defend our position. 2. I expect you to be.... During our courtship, everything was beautiful. We di...

The Secret of Our Marriage

This is just a reflection what we have been doing in the past 10 years when we started everything with nothing until now we were blessed with 3 beautiful children. Hopefully it becomes an inspiration to other family. 1. The Power of Prayer We realized that marriage is no longer between you and me only, but you, me and God therefore we always put God first in our family life. Each of us spends private time with God, he loves to go to Morning mass while I love to pray daily rosary. It gives us the strength to love, forgive and accept each other as Christ loves us. 2. We Love Our Partner above Our Children We always believe that we should love our partner more than we love our children. The best gift and example that we could give to our children is our love. When we love each other, our children also feel the warmth of love, they love us as well as their siblings. 3. Never Argue In Front of The Kids I guess this is also related with our characters. We are m...
