Isabel held my hand while settling down for her nap and said, “I am so proud of you!” It really warms my heart. 

Earlier during lunch, she said “Yay!” when she saw her lunch. My girl is super edifying and I am very thankful for that. 

  
  

  

One of Isabel’s fave activities to do while waiting for the bus to arrive is “monkey bar”. I’m glad she is leaning towards the more sporting side rather than the fragile side. 🙂

Just two days ago on a bus journey to work, God reminded me on an incident which happened seven years ago. I was at my lowest questioning who I was. A friend came to my place and talked to me at a nearby playground. Despite my failures, she did not condemn me. Now she is still encouraging me not to give up and that it is okay to be human. I am overwhelmed by God’s love for me: That He sent another great gift to me (not just dying on the cross for me) in my friend. God is indeed good. I’m blessed.

Izzie likes her lunch yesterday. She ate her fave red capsicum and gave me a thumbs up. 

  
That is Izzie looking very pleased with her lunch on Saturday. I forgot her shallots and put them on the noodles after photo taking. Hehe. 

  

Last week was a very stressful week. Peak. Campsssss and HK holiday programs and Chinese conference stuff. This week, I was bombarded by IA and Chinese conference. I falter. I questioned if I was wasting my time. 

Someone pointed out my thought pattern. Ultimately, it is my own decision: to change the “misery” I felt. 
Today, I shuffled between two bus stops and missed my bus. I got panicky coz I needed to reach Tampines childcare by 7pm for pick up. 
Just another journey in panicky mood but I had a strong word: That I need to give up from wanting to give up whenever I am provoked. My capacity is bigger than that. That I need to be always grateful for all I’m given. That I need to be humble: it is a joy to serve God the most high. That I need to stop asking for what I deserve because what I deserve is very much worse than what I have now. God is not done with me. 
End of story 
  
   

I brought Izzie for vege shopping today. She chose the Japanese cucumber and then put it back when I showed her a tomato. She must have thought I only allow her to choose one, that’s why the reaction. Oops. I asked if she wanted capsicum coz it looks fresh. She said yes. So I paid and we left the shop with a bag of tomato, Japanese cucumber and red capsicum. Izzie carried it all the way home. Then I cooked lunch while she watched Hi-5. I can see that she enjoyed her lunch because she was self-feeding and kept asking for more capsicum. Of course, she finished her lunch with ease and her usual soup and she finished a whole red kiwi all by herself. Woot! 🙂

Much as I wished I have some alone time, I truly enjoy Saturdays with Izzie coz I have her all to myself. Muahahaha!!
