The Proud Mama
I'm a 35 year old woman brought into this world on February 23rd 1971 and married to the same man for 13 years, mother to 2 hilarious, extremely handsome boys and one beautiful baby boy, who was totally NOT planned, but who turned out to be the Joy of our lives, loves to drink ice tea and hot chocolate from Starbucks. There is more to me than just being a mother, I just don't remember any of it.

Ok..he did it!!! Actually, he did better than expected. Alhamdulillah. This IS a BIG deal to me...forgive me for loathing but yes, he got Band 1 for all of his subjects.
He was abandoned for a period of time when I had to attend to a more critical situation at home. At a point of time he simply refuse to work which worries me like hell and it was during the exam period. I didn't think he can make it but he proofs me wrong! Eventually he scored the highest for his Maths and English. (Herda, if you read this...English???? Arghhh... tak paham betul ni anak satu).
Anyway, I am proud of you son! but it doesn't mean that the next exam I will not be a kanchiong spider again. I just can't wait to go through another round of frustrations, triumphs and tears. :P
PS.. Herda..thanks again for the great help! thanks again for going thru with me the physical and emotional rollercoaster..you know what I mean!
So he got a treat to the UK FunFair earlier... Happy lah dia!!!

Relax. The Spa Therapist told me.
I was having an aromatherapy massage at my favorite spa and my body was not cooperating. I guess my psyche is still in full battle gear. I had a rough day for the past few days and feeling a little desperate and wanted to relax and slow down via a massage. It was kinda frustrating trying to do something so easy yet so elusive. Ahh why can't my muscles just relax?! How one feels and how one sees things in their life is sometimes all a matter of one's perspective.
Here's a story about "Perspectives" i received on e-mail. I thought this was pretty nice. Always seeing the good side does pay off.
One day a father and his rich family took his young son on a trip to the country with the firm purpose to show him how poor people can be. They spent a day and a night in the farm of a very poor family. When they got back from their trip the father asked his son, "How was the trip? "Very good, Dad!""Did you see how poor people can be?" the father asked."Yeah!" "And what did you learn?"The son answered, "I saw that we have a dog at home, and they have four. We have a pool that reaches to the middle of the garden, they have a creek that has no end. We have imported lamps in the garden, they have the stars. Our patio reaches to the front yard, they have a whole horizon.When the little boy was finishing, his father was speechless.His son added, "Thanks, Dad, for showing me how poor we are!"
Isn't it true that it all depends on the way you look at things? If you have love, friends, family, health, good humor and a positive attitude towards life, you've got everything! You can't buy any of these things. You can have all the material possessions you can imagine, provisions for the future, etc., but if you are poor of spirit, you have nothing! As for me, I have to loosen up. All work and no play makes me a dull woman! Better luck on my next visit to the spa. Oh and I'm in love with the new therapist!

Sometimes, all you can do is take a picture, knowing that you'll forget whatever is in your head and the feeling of the whole of your being expanding, your heart rising up out of your chest, your lungs bursting with cheers as you watch how much your child had grown.
You take a picture, and you store it in your heart. Sometimes, that's enough.

What to do with leftover bread? Make Bread and Butter Pudding!
It was very well-received. The kids love it and it was gone within 20mins. Actually I missed baking and cooking for the kids. Just 2 days ago I made some fruit tartlets for the kids (lupa nak take photo) and they love it too. It has been awhile.. so mood tengah ada..apa lagi.
Now the kids made me promise to bake more stuffs for them...whats next? I'm craving for macaroons...hmmm ...gotta dig my recipe book now..
