The long awaited Sunday, 20th of September, is finally here!

At 5am, little Erica woke up (without any alarm!) and calling out cheerfully to me… I rushed into the bathroom, quickly get my bath and changed, then do what all mothers does… check through all the luggage and get all the necessary packed.

And for once, Erica managed all her cleaning and dressing up all by herself and walked into my room. At this point, little Samuel lightly opened his eyes and caught a glimpse of his sister, well dressed!! POP! He sat up on the bed making his usual call-out to me, “Mommy.. mommy… mommy.” I rushed into the room with his clothes, without a fuss, he let me changed him and finally put on his shoes. And he too, cheerfully chirping like little bird…

630am sharp, boarded into the pre-arranged taxi, we left for the airport!

Upon arriving at the airport, I was reminded so much about my past travelling, my nomad-like life where I was at somewhere (outside of Malaysia) every other weeks… kinda misses the feeling of being able to fly around and achieve much with my career!!

The reality set in very quickly when we finally sat down at a corner waiting to be boarded into the plane… little Samuel is fussing over his milk… again! Sigh!!

When we arrived at TGG airport, the troop of 9 adults, 3 kids and 3 babies marched our way out into arrival hall searching for our hotel pick up 'sign'... when we finally walked and got onto the bus, we were the last few the entire bus passengers were waiting for… :(

Within a few minutes, the bus driver pull out of the driveway and drove on the tar road… very quickly, little Samuel fast asleep on my chest. I looked out the window, the Scenery passed by like flashlight… so quickly that I don’t have enough time to absorb… white pearly sand, long beaches and crystal clear blue sky… all these reminded me of God goodness… He has already granted us our prayer… beautiful weather from the start! How mighty is He… our Lord God, Creator of Heaven and Earth.

今天，我与一个朋友定下了一个两年后的假期约会！！只有伴侣，没有小孩。。。

结婚后，我和丈夫一起去韩国渡蜜月，过了不久，Patrick被派到美国公干，那时我也跟着到美国去工作了好几个月。 在那时，每天都是两人的世界。到了週末就到处走走，看看， 体验人生，体验生活，生活非常写意。。。在期间，也带了Patrick的一家人走遍美国西海岸，加州，拉斯维加斯，迪士尼了园他。。。很快的大半年的时间就过去了，到了回乡的时候了。

之后的假期都是一大家人一起去。 二零零二年，在小思恩呱呱落地的那一刻，两人一起去渡假的机会就很‘奇妙’的从此消失了。。。

所以，这个约定非常有意义！
