Warning… long ranting ahead…. My maid has finally returned to Indonesia for good yesterday. The entire morning, my maid was telling Sherilyn how much she would miss her and was teary eyed.

Trusting My Guts Feelings
Posted on
My guts feelings have been right most times. Even though I had gotten a verbal confirmation from this maid agency that supplies temp maids that he can provide me with a temp live-in maid for one month starting this Sunday, somehow, I just had a feeling that the maid will never arrive. True enough, my fears and worries…

Alycia and Sherilyn love watching the Australian kids’ educational VCDs Hi-5 and they have certainly learnt a lot of good things (vocab, grammar, phonics, body parts, shapes, colors, cause and effect and much more) from these VCDs. At times they even speak in Aussie slang and jargon. For the past few days, Sherilyn the drama…

Sherilyn Loves Her Baby Sister
Posted on
Sherilyn loves to call her unborn baby sister ‘baby’. Everyday, she will hug my tummy and kiss it. She will also remind me to pray for baby twice a day – before our afternoon nap and before going to bed at night. Though she’s starting to display a little jealousy streak in her over her…
Scrumptious Waffles With Delectable Honey
Posted on
One of the highlights at the breakfast buffet at the Sheraton Imperial Hotel coffee house was the range of honey available for the scrumptious waffles. This is the first time I had eaten honey straight from the bee hives. Notice the honey dripping down from the bee hives through the wooden funnel into a bowl? Very unique…
Alycia’s Not Getting Any Better

Alycia’s cough is still not getting any better. The phlegm has increased and she kept vomitting the phlegm out each time she coughed. This morning after drinking milk, she lay on the couch, then coughed and coughed and puked everything out. Later during breakfast, she vomitted again, including the medicine that I had just fed her….
Humongous Chiffon Cake

We were at Sheraton Imperial Hotel for dinner at Villa Danieli last week when the gals saw this couch at the lobby which looks like a ginormous green tea chiffon cake, which is their favorite chiffon cake! They got all excited and jumped on it to pose for mummy to take pix of them. No….
One More Week To Go

This week will be my maid’s last week with us. Can’t imagine life without her. Though she’s got her weaknesses, she has nevertheless been quite a good and efficient maid. I can leave many things to her like handling the kids and cooking and that has given me some time to do my own work. With…

My Sunday

Today has been a quite a dull Sunday for me. Alycia is still feeling very listless as a result of the medication for her throat infection. She has been sleeping almost the entire day, which is very unusual of her. Sherilyn has also caught the virus from Alycia and daddy but she’s still very active and eating well. …
Model In The Making

Sherilyn sure knows how to pose on this pool side deck chair. She even requested that we spread a towel over the chair before she lay on it…. and as she lay there, she requested to drink her chocolate milk. She really knows how to ‘tharn sai khai’ (enjoy life) more than mummy! No. of times…
