Hubs and I were in school this morning to cheer on our baby girl who went up the stage to receive a trophy. The top ten students from standard 1 through 6 in the academic year get to receive a trophy. Mighty proud of our baby girl 🙂 🙂 After we left school, hubs and…

Heart-Stopping Moment
I had a heart-stopping moment today. At around the time when I was supposed to go down to the lobby to wait for Cass to arrive home, I received a call from her class teacher. OH. NO!! Calls from the schools and teachers are NEVER good. Never once good. My heart literally stopped for a…
Good-Bye Teacher Kaitlyn
Cass’ piano teacher is a 19-year old girl who teaches part-time while studying in college. Although teacher Kaitlyn is very strict and has a tendency to blow up if her students produce crap during lessons, Cass still loves her. Yes, there had been many times when Cass was chided when she got on teacher Kaitlyn’s nerves….
Random Conversation With Cass
Yesterday Cass informed me of her class and standard position for the second term exam. Though the position dropped 3 notches down, she is still within top 10 in class and in the whole standard of about 300 Year 2 pupils in her school. Next came the request for reward! Cass – mummy, remember you…
Our Saturday – 30 July 2016
Today is the day that both Cass and Drama Queen have been waiting for. They have spent many days practising for their sports day. We reached school at 7am. After roll-calling, we had a quick bite at the canteen before rushing off to the running track. Marching event… Perfect shot of Cass’ team mate passing…
Parents’ Day
My Saturday started very early today – at 4:45am. After Alycia left the house at 6:20am, I woke Drama Queen and Cass up. It’s Parents’ Day cum report card collection day today! The hubs left the house very early too. His client’s event is in Rawang, thus he was not able to follow me to…
Cassandra’s Post Operation Ultrasound Scan – 7 June 2016
It’s been 2 years since our last visit to Penang and follow-up check up with Cass’ surgeon. Upon reaching Penang yesterday morning, hubs dropped Cass and I at GMC. Along with his mum, Alycia and Sherilyn, he went on a shopping spree around Penang Island, getting all our favorite food while Cass and I were…
All About Cass
I have a love-hate relationship with Cass. I love her so deeply despite her many flaws and imperfections. I’d do anything to save her life, no matter the cost and that’s what I have been doing since having her into my life. Whenever I visit Cass in school (2-3 times a week), she will say…
Seventh Anniversary Of Cassandra’s Surgeries
I have been telling myself that I ain’t going to post about the anniversary of Cass’ surgeries in my blogs anymore. It is still painful for me to look back at the pictures and read those May 2009 blog postings. But I just can’t help thinking about what we went through on 5 May 2009…
Posting A Letter By Snail Mail
It’s been donkey yonkey years since I last posted a letter by snail mail by slotting the letter into a post box by the roadside. With the advent of the email, Whatsapp, courier, fax and office boy service, we hardly need to get down to the post box to post a mail. Cass misses her…
Cassandra’s Ice Bucket Challenge
Look what I found in the freezer today! A handful of Shopkins shopping baskets filled with tap water. This cheeky brat loves filling up containers and toys of all shapes and sizes with water and have them frozen. I always get surprises when I open the freezer door! She says she likes experimenting with things….
Treating UTI Naturally With Hydrogen Water
I got a scare of my life on Tuesday morning (yesterday). It was around 1-ish a.m. and I heard a knock on my room door. I stumbled out of bed groggily with my heart thumping. The mil was standing outside and she told me that Cass had woken up on her own to pee. This…
April’s Fool Friday – 1 April 2016
When no one has the time or mood to play board games with Cass, she will bug her grandma 😀 Thankfully grandma is ever so sporting and willing to entertain this Energizer bunny. Grandma would do anything to stop this little girl from getting hooked on electrical gadgets. I have the same sentiments too but…
Kids Say The Wittiest Things
A few nights ago, in my bedroom. I was having a bad menstrual stomach cramp and was lying on the bed, applying peppermint essential oil on my tummy. When I let out a cough, the strain sent a sudden piercing pain to my abdomen. I cringed in pain, turn to my left side in a…
No More Fever, YAY!!
Cass’ high fever has finally subsided today, Praise The Lord! 🙂 Just now… Cass – mummy, I am going to be so left behind in class. Me – it’s ok. I can revise with you at home. And so here she is, sipping Izumio while doing some test papers that I printed for her. Just…
High Fever (Above 40 Degrees Celsius)
As I pulled Cass up from bed yesterday morning, I felt like I was holding a burning log on my bare hands. I asked her if she felt unwell but she said no. She was really looking forward to going to school as she was to receive her trophy for a drawing contest that she won…
