JJZZJ Days Of Our Lives

Good Memories

 

Was looking through the old photos in the laptop last 30 minutes. Looking at the photos taken long before Jeff joined us.

These photos brought lots of memories of Zane and us growing up with Zane. Looking at the photos long enough will make me cry. And after that, smiles again. My boy has grown. Shall try to capture more solo shots of him – my 7 year old Zane.

 

He simply loves water.

He just sat on the floor when he felt like doing it.

He wanted Josh to pack the luggage bag again..... So that we could go on a holiday again.

I love this smile.

Photos of Zane younger than these are in hard copies. Jeff is the most blessed one. To have his photos in soft copies since before birth! The down side is : I dunno when I will print them out. :P

she is growing up

 

Ok, I have finally reached this stage with Zoe. She is growing up. A bit slow compared to her 2000 peers, but I am glad I am only facing this now. Quite a luxury to have an easy time parenting her the last 8 years.

The last 2 rounds we had in laws and a close friend babysat the boys and her, she shared some stuffs with them, which of course I was informed.

My dear girl, I know it is tough to be different from most of your school mates, esp when you are the minority who speaks good English and they speak neighbourhood languages. It is even tougher that you are not the girly kind of girl and thus you are stuck between the two genders.

At home, I know it is also tough to be the big sister. Mummy is the big sister, I know. It is a struggle sometimes to be told to look after your brothers when what you really want is to do the things you have to or want to. Mummy too, Zoe darling, many a times, doing homework with my right hand seated on the floor and rocking your youngest uncle to sleep in his yao2 lan2 with my left hand. I was not as sweet as you. You have been most thoughtful, sacrificial and sweet.

Thank you, Zoe girl. Mummy loves you. Mummy needs you too. Your brothers are very blessed to have you as their big sister. I pray you will love them always, no matter how demanding they can be. Like I said, you have to love Zane with the special kind of love. He didn’t ask or want to be special.

*hugsssss **
