December is always my favourite month of the year. It starts with my eldest daughter’s birthday on 5th December, followed by the Winter Solstice festival (which is also my elder brother’s birthday), Christmas and finally the Year-End countdown celebration.

If there is one child who continues to surprise me throughout life, it is my middle girl, Sherilyn. Today she is a university undergraduate in Architecture, sleep-deprived, rushing assignments, juggling dance gigs, dance classes and still manages to work part-time at the café (with wonderful bosses) whenever she has the time.
