It was a big decision to transfer this girl to a new school at the end of Primary 2 after we moved to A Happy Home.
At that time, she had already settled down, was doing well in dance, had made good friends and was just chosen to go for a leadership training camp. However, since we were transferring to a new school, I made a choice to let her skip the one-day camp and instead go for Navy Day with us.
This was a decision that was supported by her form teacher then, who told me earnestly "It is more important for Angel to show support for her Dad, understand his job better and be with her family." She carried on to tell me something which still rings in my ear from time to time "She is a student who will shine in any school she goes to and I am sure good things lie ahead for her."
Fast forward to three years later, this girl came home with a skip yesterday and the first thing she did was to enthusiastically exclaim "Mama, I am now the Vice Head Captain in school!"
Yup, she has been a School Captain for two years now and after a series of elimination rounds, campaigning and interviews with the principals and teachers, she has been elected into the core team to lead, be a role model and do her part for the school (in my days, it was called Prefects. I was a Prefect but would never have made it as a Head or Vice Head, so it's really 青出于蓝而胜于蓝). It was plain to see the look of immense joy on her face and I was so happy for her.
Of course, we all know how our kids can be angels in school yet terrors at home, right? Don't ask me why the contrast can be so huge, I guess we only show our true colours to people we love and trust deeply - it's the same for me too.
To be honest, it hasn't been easy treading this growing up journey with this tween and I know we have countless more hurdles ahead of us which we must overcome together hand in hand.
For today, I'm choosing to believe we can do it and we will do it well. She might not be able to enjoy Children's Day holiday in a couple of years from now but I hope she knows how much I love her and proud to see how she has grown. Congrats and love ya, my dear! ❤

I told myself I wouldn't cry. But I still did, anyway.
It was so hard not get emotional when your baby pictures were shown on the big screen and the piano version of "A Million Dreams" was playing in the background. I found myself wiping the tears away just so I could focus on taking pics and vids of you, and enjoy the happiness of seeing you all grown up.
Happy graduation, my dearest Ariel. You look so beautiful in your graduation gown and mortarboard and did a fabulous job on stage that night. My heart was beaming with pride and I hope you know how special you are to me. We love you so much! ❤

Happy 11th Birthday, dear Angel! 🎂
Yup, the big girl turns 11 years old today and that is a huge milestone. It's still hard to believe that this firstborn of mine arrived in this world over a decade ago, will be taking her PSLE next year and is going to be a big sister (again) in a few months' time. Woohoo.
I wanted to invite a few of her closest friends over for a craft party this year and even started preparing the decorations a month ago already. But she came up to me and said "Mama, I don't need a party. Then you don't have to work so hard. 你就不用这么辛苦。" Yup, that was a heart melting moment but it also goes to show how this girl has grown up and matured. Thank you for thinking of me, my dear, it was really sweet and thoughtful of you. In the end, we decided to make this day just about the five of us. Family is everything, like she always reminds me.
So I asked her what she wanted for her birthday and her wishes were very simple - a bowl of bak chor mee, a pen and a box of mealworms. Haha, yup, that is how unique this girl can be. I reckoned she deserves something more for being a good sister and hardworking girl this year so we brought her to the arcade today, surprised her by watching "The Witches" since she has read the Roald Dahl book, treated her to a yummy chocolate fondue since she didn't want a cake and brought her for her favourite steamboat dinner.
The sister and brother did handwritten cards for her which she loved and also gave her a few Sumikko Gurashi stationery items which totally made her day too. It warmed my heart so much to see how many times they said "Happy Birthday, 大姐!" and kept showering her with lots of hugs and kisses. Yup, hopefully you all don't find this mushy when all of you become teenagers lor. Haha.
It was such a simple day yet one filled with love, fun, laughter, joy, bliss and priceless memories. 生日快乐,大宝. I love you more than you'll ever know. Always and forever. ❤
