Why “Two Smiles for the Price of One”?

Why did I name this blog “Two Smiles for the Price of One”? Maybe I should explain … As a hobby, I make cards, handmade and designed by myself. I make my own cards for Christmas, wedding invitations, birthdays, etc. It is a passion that I have, I love to design and make them. Once, I even designed and made 400 wedding invitation cards for my sister in law, and it was very well received...read more..

Having the opportunity to witness the process of your kids growing is an experience that is so precious and irreplaceable (at least it is for me :)!)...

I still remember vividly how Erica cried when I first sent her to kindergarten back in 2006... how she refused to go to class everyday... how her kindergarten headmistress has to carry her out of the car and take her into the class... she was a timid little girl!

Recently, her dancing school organized an afternoon of performance for all the students to showcase their talent and ability... and my little Erica is one of the performer for a modern dance "Mambo No. 5"... I was so thrilled and waited patiently for the day to approach.


When the song "Mambo No. 5" started playing... I saw this bunch of little one running towards the center stage taking their position and very quickly I spotted my little Erica. I cannot explained to you how touch I was seeing her performing her routine, with diligent she tried to keep to her steps and yet not forgetting to flash a sunny smiles to the audience.

My heart bursting with pride... my little timid girl has finally grew out of her shell...













One evening, my little 15-month old decided to take up the task of his dad to water the plants in the garden... with his unstable walk, he toddled his way to turn on the water pipe, pick up the water host and started watering the plants... :)

However, after awhile of watering, he started to be attracted with the water coming out of the host and in the process of exploring... he drenched himself... with the wind blowing, he toddled his way to me, flashing his cheeky smile and said, "Mama, cold cold... "



After letting him enjoying the fun for 10mins, I decided I better rush him into the bathroom and get him bathed and changed before he catched a cold... little gardener obviously were a little upset!

It is an enjoying journey for me to see and share his growing up... day by day...















Erica and I went out for a few hours on Sunday… yes, only mother and daughter :)! During that few hours, we signed up for an hour CityGolf (the only indoor golf in Malaysia) beginner’s golf lesson… and… we were both so excited and obviously have enjoyed ourselves very much... so, we have committed for another 10 lesson at the end of the lesson… !! *burning a big hole in Patrick’s pocket J*

After the day-out experience and looking back at when I was a little girl… often dreaming of what I can do… “How nice if my fingers can dance on the black and white keys, producing ear-soothing melodies”, “I will surely enjoy it, if my feet can jump and leap thru the graceful moves of ballet dancing…”

How can I do something different for my kids? I only need to do one thing: create opportunity to unleash the potential in them!
