Izzie pooed at the potty for the first time tonight. Yay. I’m so proud of her!! 🙂
She was initially quite anxious but we encouraged her to be brave and she did it.

B released me to attend the end-times CWBS finale today. It would be my first time attending this three part bible study with Pastor Kong. B offered to take care of Izzie.
I had a terrible headache at mid-day and was tempted to skip the bible study. As the headache got better, I decided to stay and meet my cell group member for dinner. I also decided to go for the first half of bible study. It was sooo good that I stayed for the entire duration. Thank you Jesus and B and cell group members. I was very blessed.
One of the nicest hair tied by her teacher in school. I’m so glad it is no longer “coconut tree”.

We both woke up late today and decided to go to Refuel at Bedok Reservoir for brunch. The place has great natural lighting and is rather cosy. The food and coffee are nice! Price is reasonable too. We left with full stomachs and happy hearts.
Next, we went grocery shopping as we decided to cook dinner.
B agreed to cook char siew for the first time, according to my request. Yummay, it was really satisfying! Dinner was awesome because we felt so. 🙂
Thankful for the family time. No agenda. Get chores done. Not costly. Lots of family bonding. Lots of love. Just the three of us.
The umbrella is a very much valued toy to my tod. Btw she chose her own ootd. Looking forward to more Sundays like these.
Today Izzie and I bumped into Meng How after service. He was my first CHC HOD. It was a sweet meeting. I was touched at how he interacted with Izzie. Earlier this morning, I had taught Izzie the questions and answers:
Q1: What is your name?
A1: I’m Isabel
Q2: How old are you?
A2: I’m three years old
She absorbed rather quickly and those were the two questions Meng How asked her. It was good practice for her and she did very well. Haha!
I was reminded of how he prayed for me at Gleneagles when I was hospitalized for pregnancy complications and how I saw a vision of Izzie at week 28 during that prayer. He was a channel which gave me hope when all I knew was uncertainty. I was encouraged and have been blessed by this man of God!

I was pleasantly surprised when I picked Izzie up this evening. Her hair was beautifully tied up and she looked really happy.
I had alone time with her tonight as B was working and my mom had work assignment as well. Thankful that Izzie was easy especially during dinner time. I bought wanton mee for her and taught her how to say “Char Siew” in Cantonese as she kept calling the meat chicken. Just before bedtime she took the stirrer and “dotted” on me and said, “I’m painting mommy.” My heart is filled once again.

We had a wonderful time with the Ngs over dinner to celebrate Izzie’s 3rd birthday at Second Storey Cafe. It is a child-friendly restaurant and my current fave. Food is nice and price is reasonable. The kids could play (within sight) while the adults fellowship. How nice!
These are friends for life! The smiles on their faces … Priceless! Really thankful for this warm family. 🙂
Isabel’s 3rd Birthday
Happy Birthday to my precious darling, Isabel. You bring me hair-pulling moments and melt my heart every single day. May you enjoy every day growing up in the fear of the Lord! Love you always.
