While scrolling through my Google Photos recently, a set of pictures stopped me in my tracks—Alycia and Sherilyn at KLIA, dated 3 December 2017. It has been almost eight years, yet that day remains so vivid in my heart. Alycia was only 14 and Sherilyn, 12. They were all smiles, bags in hand, ready to…

Sisterly Bonding: Alycia and Sherilyn’s Staycation at Four Seasons Hotel
As teenage sisters, our three girls rarely get time to spend together without the distractions of school and uni, extracurricular activities, and their own individual social lives. Since Alycia is having a semester break and Sherilyn has several days off before she works part-time again next week, the timing was right for the two girls…
Friday, 7 April 2023
Cass gave me a scare yesterday when she told me that she had a cold and headache. I told her to do a Covid self-test. The first time she did the Covid test, a faint line appeared on the ‘T’ window and seconds later the line went up and disappeared! I told her to do…
A & S
Our middle child is the cheekiest and most mischievous of the three girls, from the moment she announced her grand arrival 15+ years ago. She’s the loudest, most aggressive and most melodramatic. She has mellowed down a lot now compared to her younger days. When Sherilyn is in a cheeky mood, she will tease everyone…
The Girls Are Home!
My two big babies are finally back home after a 9-day adventure in Hong Kong without their parents bossing around them. So glad to have them home. Alycia and Drama Queen with their ground assistant and Drama Queen avoiding the paparazzi: With travel assistance request (which is a FOC service), the girls’ passports were safe-kept…
Alycia & Sherilyn’s Adventure In Hong Kong
Thank you to Drama Queen, I get lots of updates, photos and videos from her everyday on her adventure in Hong Kong with Alycia. Two days ago, they went hiking with their uncle B. Enjoy the pix: Yesterday they went to Disneyland. This marks Alycia and Sherilyn’s second visit to Hong Kong Disneyland….
Alycia Turns 14 Today
Fourteen years ago today, I was the happiest woman alive on earth. I finally met my long-awaited baby. After years of battling PCOS, infertility and fertility treatments, I held my bundle of joy for the first time. It was the best feeling ever. The 9 months of my pregnancy was fraught with stumbling blocks one…
Bon Voyage
Despite having a late night yesterday doing last minute shopping at the shopping mall and only hitting the sack way past midnight, I managed to jump out of bed at 4:45 a.m. today. Alycia and Sherilyn’s flight to Hong Kong was at 10:30 a.m. today. As it’s their first time traveling alone without any accompanying…
Arrived in Auckland!
Here’s a picture of A & S with their mama upon arrival at the airport in Auckland about 3.5 hours ago. Thanks to my bil who waited patiently at the airport. The flight was delayed by 1.5 hours and by the time they were out, it was already close to 2am Auckland time. Thank you…
Watery Porridge For The Fussy Rice Pot
This is the kind of ‘watery porridge’ that my fussy rice pot likes to eat, as mentioned in my earlier post. Alycia likes it that the rice grains still look, feel and taste almost like rice, just like how rice is eaten with soup. If the consistency is thick, she finds it gross and hard…
My 2 Underaged Store Assistants
I almost flipped when I saw my stock at the door yesterday. My husband needed a trolley to push the boxes of stock back. There were over 100 pieces of Doomagic pillowcases, Disney Storybook Pillows, Sesame Street Sunglasses, Thomas Train sets, headbands, clothes and many more. I just didn’t know how to get started. But…
Sherilyn’s Best Friend
There was a lantern party to celebrate mooncake festival at Sherilyn’s pre-school 2 weeks ago. The pre-school holds this party every year. The kids, their parents and the teachers will walk round the neighborhood holding the lanterns and then there will be a party inside the school. It’s a party that my girls look forward…
Future Chefs
Since young, Alycia has a strong interest in culinary. She loves food and she loves cooking too. In fact, she loves watching Jamie Oliver, Anthonay Bourdain and AFC with me 🙂 If there’s anything that she truly loves to do, it has got to be cooking, painting and drawing. Well, swimming too 🙂 Here, she’s helping…
Clandestine Eating
Whenever Alycia and Sherilyn (and even me!) want to eat junk food and Baby is having lunch or dinner at the dining table, we all have to go into secret hiding to eat in peace. Baby is now not a baby anymore. She has learned to love eating junk food – ice creams, cakes, biscuits,…
Desa Fishing Sport
2 Sundays ago, hubs brought Alycia and Sherilyn fishing at Desa Fishing Sport @ Taman Danau Desa. I didn’t follow as Baby was taking her nap. Even if she wasn’t naping, I would not have followed as the weather was sweltering and that place is not a place for toddlers to go to. Albeit terribly…
Holy Smoke, Guess What This Is?
An easy guess this time. Any idea what the girls are blowing here? It was their first time seeing such holy smoke and they were super duper fascinated by it. No. of times viewed = 359
