Toys, toys, toys

Sara's collection of toys are usually from my nephew who outgrew them. At my mom's place, there is a Toyogo box full of toys for the 2 kids to keep themselves occupied.












This is Sara busy ransacking the box of toys in Grandma's house, looking for whatever that might interest her. I noticed that Sara will always do this with the Toyogo box...


She will sit beside the box and tilt it towards her with one hand, while stretching her little neck studying the contents in the box carefully for a few seconds before she finally reaches in with her other hand and digs in. Each toy that she pulls out, she will give a long good look at it while keeping the box tilted with her other hand, shake it a little as if all it's a rattle then look at it again and if she finds it interesting, she will let go of the box and play with the toy. If the toy somehow does not appeal to her, she will threw it over her shoulder and study the contents of the box again before she reaches in for another toy. Sometimes she does this a few times before she finds something which satisfy her little heart.

Of course Mummy was quite amused with her little conduct.

Anyway, we hardly buy any toys for Sara except for one or two occasions and one in particular which we bought for her coming one year old birthday present. The toy is still nicely wrapped up. Although we hardly got her any toys, her collection at home somehow 'grew'.

Since I was so amused with Sara and the box, I decided to get a box from Ikea with caster to store her toys. For neatness and to keep the little one busy.

More toys means I need to get more box

She's a clever girl.

We have like 6 boxes of toys, different sizes and sometimes the boxes themselves become the toy - namely a truck/car/train to ride in. The real headache is then getting the boys to sort out and put back all the toys.

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-...

I couldn’t sleep that night. As much as I wanted to but I was full of excitement that my heart could hardly contained. I looked around me and the room was almost in total darkness. The sun has yet to rise for the day. I turned around to turn off my alarm and lie on my back looking up the ceiling. Train of thoughts was running through my mind like a movie clip. As soon as I heard birds chirping, I turned to my side and got up from my bed to make my way to the bathroom. It was nice taking a warm shower before the start of the day. I slowly made my way to the kitchen to find my mother already awake and was up and about preparing breakfast. I was halfway enjoying my hot piping coffee when I received a call on my cell. “Hi, I am outside your house”. I was expecting him to come but didn’t expect him to be this early. I opened the front door and we made our way to my parents’ room. I sat in front of the mirror relaxing myself while he did his masterpiece of painting my face. After a whole 2 h...
