FAMILY ..... that's who we are!

Having taken a respite from blogging, I hope to be able to document happenings in my life as and when available.

Seeing the triumphant look on my dearie's face when he baked his first cake, (kueh bingka) made me want to encourage him to do more! :)  And baked he did - when we had his family over and they almost finished the whole container of cake.

Great when he helps around the home too.  Like for instance, drying up after dinner and at times taking over the washing up too. Makes-up our love bed when the nights' over. How lovely is that???  ;)) Oh..oh not forgetting cleaning the toilets and scrubbing the tiles shiny. Thank you dearie... muak!

More often than not, I take for granted that my family members are not interested in learning to do certain things when they can easily get it done by another.

Guess I've been proven WRONG!  Lets just start from my eldest.

Jie - loves eating almost everything and enjoys being the food tester but most of the time is not home. Hates clutters, but brings back a lot of impulsive buys. Throws anything and everything out, even if it's new if interests for it wanes. Helps to unclutter my home - pssst...love it when she does this :)

Mae - wait, l'll keep for last .....

And Ber..... well ..... knows when to 'butter' her parents!! Each time when reprimanded or in need, will ensure that she does or say something to gain ones' approval or confidence.  Moves with a group of friends who are no hurry to join the workforce. This might have caused her a professional development lapse and if it continues will not be good for her self-esteem.

Back to Mae, a hands-on person. Loves to bake, cook and sew, must say she's more like her mum hehehe! :)
Also a DIY person and a good handy one around the house too!!
Character wise, more like her daddy - stubborn headed, soft at heart (easily swayed), too helpful to the point of hardly saying 'NO' to others even if they themselves do not want to do it.

Putting all our flaws aside, l've been blessed with a wonderful family. We stand together through thick and thin and help each other out when in need.

Oh..yes! we are who WE ARE - FAMILY !!
