Everyday Is a Gift!

I was reading a book with short stories in it. One of it is as above title.

Here it goes-->

My Brother in law opened the bottom drawer of his sister's wardrobe and lifted a tissue wrapped package. "This", he said, "this is not a slip. This is lingerie". He discarded the tissue and handed me the lingerie. It was exquisite, silk, handmade and trimmed with a cobweb lace. The price tag was still attached. "Jen bought this the first time we went to New York, at least 8 to 9 years ago. She never wore it. She was saving it for a special occasion. Well, I guess this is the occasion. He took the lingerie from me and put it on the bed with other clothes we were taking to the mortician. His hand lingered on the soft material for a moment and turned to me.

"Don't ever save anything for a special occasion. Everyday you're alive is a special occasion."

2 Years without Posting

2 years have passed so quickly and out of a sudden, I've decided to pay this blog a visit. Reading all the old post help to refresh good memories and great events which happened past years. My last posting was a short one showing the ultrasound scan of our 1st baby at 38weeks + and now...I am 27 weeks pregnant with my second baby. Can you see how time flies? Here is the 2nd baby's ultrasound scan at 26 weeks. 

Small Win to Celebrate

Finn woke me up this morning instead of me doing so for him. He has been waking up feeling lousy and would whine non stop during school days..he would not stop until I started scolding him. Last night I prep him and put him to bed earlier than keith (rather than waiting for Keith to pack his bags). I managed to pat him and he slept at 10.15pm (not early but it seems enough). Right before he sleeps, I asked him to promise not to whine when he wakes up and he did well. He woke me up instead. He came to me and said, mommy….i want to wake up already….
