Flowers for Me?


Sara got her very first stalk of flower.

Daddy bought his two favourite girls 3 beautiful gerberas. Two for Mummy and one for Baby Sara.

I never realised it but Daddy pointed out that he usually buys me flowers when he is on Medical Leave. Reason being, the market is just beside the clinic. Notice the word 'market' here, compared to the nice bouquet of flowers he bought for me during our courtship. From nice expensive bouquet of flowers to small bundle of flowers to newspaper wrapping flowers. See the transition?

Naw, I am not trying to make a point here. I just one to say that I treasure every single one of it, be it big or small, cheap or expensive, so long its a gift from him :)

Count yourself lucky! The last flowers I got from Mike was my birthday 2005. Before that..... er... Can't remember but maybe 1996?!!

But I appreciate all the other stuff he does for me, so I don't complain...so much. ;)

He he. Ya, with all the things Woon Foong did I am not complaining either but realised that all the jokes about marriage sometimes are actually true :)

men are practical...nice bouquets are useless cause they will be unwrapped from all their shiny wrappings and ribbons and put into a vase.
might as well save the money and wrap in newspaper. once they are put into the vase, the end product is the same. hehhehe

True that wrappings are not as important as the content, but you must admit that it does something for the senses. Eg: wahich would you find more appetising: Nasi lemak in a plastic plate or in a ratan woven plate lined with banana leaf?

My dad-in-law passed away on September 1, 2007 to begin an eternal life with our Lord. He was a man with few words, gentle in his ways and had a generous heart to all. He had led a hard life but he was blessed with a loving and faithful wife and three wonderful sons. He had fought a long hard battle of cancer for years. And throughout his life, he kept his heart closed against the Lord. Due to persistent prayers of those who love him and the brotherly love of Sitiawan Methodist Church members, my dad-in-law accepted the Lord Jesus as his personal Saviour, follow thereafter by my mum-in-law. They were both baptized last month. His sickness took a bad turn last week and the sons were called to return home to see him for the last time. There were a few times that they thought my dad-in-law was not going to make it but he managed to pull through. It came to a point, my brother-in-law prayed for a confirmation from God the time which my dad-in-law will be called home. The day before my dad-

A Sick Baby Updates

My Little Lady last had fever on Thursday morning. We fed her a dosage of paracertamol at 6.30 a.m. and her fever never came back since then. Her swelling reduced tremendously and there were no rashes on her body. The doctor has informed us that it will take a few days with 2 days of high fever and thereafter the fever will go up and down for another few more days. We praise God for His healing and that my Little Lady was healed within less than 2 days. Her fever started on Tuesday night and Wednesday was the crazy day and by Thursday early morning it was all gone. As I write this I am reminded of this verse;- " I waited patiently for the Lord, he turned to me and heard my cry ." Psalm 40 And thank you all who has kept us in your prayers :) We appreciate it very much. Got to run for now. Since Daddy Yeoh and Little Lady have both recovered, I will be making American breakfast for them...Smoked English Breakfast Sausages (homemade by my brother in law) yummy!
