我陪她们长大,她们陪我老

Covid for the family to end what was a pretty disastrous 2023. Ah pa and R are still showing Covid symptoms which isn’t good, luckily Ah pa seems to be on the mend, I’m always so worried about his health, both physical and mental.

They love going to Dome’s for brunch and lunch and every meal I think haha. I like indulging them as well, we are eating out a bit more often lately, well why not I ask myself. What’s the point of earning money if not to spend money?

My love for kimbap in unwaning. I could eat this everyday I think, hmm just looking at this picture reminds me that I should make more.

I love this picture by Saitaoha. I think she is so good at drawing, probably bias but isn’t this picture too cute for words haha.

A work trip to Port Hedland. It’s so weird to think the last time I visited was under such different context and circumstances. I can’t deny I’m nervous that I will struggle in such an unknown territory, but I’m also excited to learn more. I told my boss today ‘ I think 2024 is the year I will find out whether I sink or swim’. She looked at me earnestly and said ‘you will swim!!! Trust me!’ And just like that, I believed her. I am a first follower to the tilt, if my leader thinks I can swim, I will swim.

This little girl finally pierced her ears because she felt ‘ready for it’.

She usually cries during injections so I was surprised that she didn’t shed a tear! I guess because she was ready for it she had steadied her nerves.

She was mighty pleased with her pierced ears. I am so glad she did it without a fuss and was so brave about it all. Looking forward to earring shopping with my girls in the future!

Ah pa picked me up from the supermarket again, I’m always reminded how lucky I am to have parents that are so supportive and selfless. I always enjoy our little chats in the car, most of the time we always chat about the kids, sometimes Ah pa will impart advice, sometimes I tell him about what’s happening at work.

Today he told me to not worry all the time about them being exhausted from looking after the kids (I know they are). He said that the days go by quickly when they are there and said ‘我陪她们长大,她们陪我老’. Yesterday I was thinking how we are actually living our best days because all three generations are alive and together. I can’t bear the thought of the day when we will be apart 😢 and this sometimes keeps me awake at night.
