My baby at 13th month

It’s amazing how babies grow and the speed at which they grow.

My baby has passed his first birthday when I wrote an open letter to him. I hope it will be memorable for him when he grows up reading the letter. It’s a letter full of love, love and love. And it’s also easy to forget such intense love when we go through everyday life in joy, laughter, anger, frustration, tears, disappointment, and back to love again Continue reading “My baby at 13th month”

My first business trip – thoughts on the plane

Beautiful scene looking out of the plane

In the days running up to my business trip, XX was really upset. I had done all I could do (read here for all the things I tried to do to comfort my kids prior to the trip) to make my absence easier for her but it does not seem to work for her. As my travel date got nearer, she was almost tearing everyday, chanting “I don’t want mummy to travel”, it really broke my heart. Continue reading “My first business trip – thoughts on the plane”
