Valentines Day – Mommy Moments
18th February, 2010
We do celebrate Valentines since the first up to now, but we don’t go out on the day itself. It just makes us feel more in love and it somehow refreshes our first year together where our love was indeed flaming hot. It didn’t end when we had our daughter, which I am really happy and thankful about. My daughter has been my accomplice since last year and last year’s surprise for Daddy was a success, but this year… IT WAS NOT!!! =)
It’s funny how kids can be so honest and true. I bought my surprise card for hubby earlier, but it was already Friday night when I realized that I haven’t written on it yet so I rushed off to finish and keep the card before hubby arrives and that time, hubby was already on his way home. As I write, I told Alyssa that the card is a surprise and that she shouldn’t tell daddy about it and that Daddy can only know about this on Sunday. She lowered her voice and said, “Shhhh… Mum, I won’t tell Dad. It’s a surprise! It’s Valentines day, I want a pancake again for breakfast!” Until…
Dad arrived home. Alyssa came rushing to her Dad on the door and said, “Dad! Dad! Mum has a gift for you. It’s a surprise. You can’t open it now, you can only open it on Sunday because it’s Valentines Day on Sunday!” WAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!! I really burst into laughter. But even though Dad already knew about it, he chose not to open it until Sunday.
The next morning (Saturday), Alyssa went to the window and said, “Mum, is it sunny day? Can Dad open his surprise now?” Again… I laughed and said, “Anak, sunny day is different from Sunday. Today is Saturday and tomorrow is Sunday.” Oh, how precious my little angle is.
Hope you all had a lovely Valentines celebration. Please share yours in Mommy Moments.

18th February, 2010
I’ve already told our whole Valentines story with lovely surprises, so now all I will share here are the rest of the pictures I’ve taken during our celebration.
How cute is she??? LOL! Sleeping on the road… =)
While we were waiting for our Chinese foods, I asked her to give me a pose and I’m so happy that she did even though she was busy playing with my iPhone.
Random pics taken on our way to the restaurant, before watching Avatar, and just before we hop on the train.
Of course, pictures with mom…
AND
with Dad.
On the actual day…
Here are Dad’s sweet surprises.
Hope you all had a wonderful Valentines Day.
Please join us in Girl’s Talk and share your Valentines pictures too.
Dragon for Chinese New Year
17th February, 2010
I was surprised when I picked my daughter up from school last Thursday as she’s handling a nicely made dragon in time for Chinese New Year. I am not hand crafty, myself so even that dragon is impossible for me to make not unless there’s a step-by-step guide. =)
I am so happy that the teachers in her school are so into arts. Alyssa’s box is already full of art works she made during her Nursery days. I have to buy another box for her now that she’s in Reception (Kinder).
Belated Kung Hei Fat Choi!!!
