Lamb of God

 

Jesus carrying the lamb picture at Church of St Anthony of Padua

My mother has four children.  My elder brother married young, and gave birth to their children very young also.  I was always fascinated with the chinese horoscope, the twelve zodiac animals.  I found out all the zodiac animals for every one in the family.  For all the newborn, I found out the zodiac animals too.  I told my mother that we have so many zodiac animals in our family, some even repeats eg.  My father and Eddy are both tiger,  Belinda, Thomas and Valerie are dogs.  What is missing in the family?  The goat.  The Lamb is missing.  

The initial Family of Six

I was pregnant in the year of the horse, 2002, but aborted the baby then.  If I had persevere and kept the baby, he would be born in the year of the goat, 2003.  However, I killed the lamb.  It was the lamb of God I killed... Then in the year 2008, Jesus saved me, the lost sheep...

Then in the year 2003, we bought Cebest, our special schnauzer dog.  Cebest was born in 2003, 2 May 2003, the year of the goat!  He was taken away unexpectedly to meet God in the year 2006.  

I also found out later on that my father-in-law was a 'goat', born on Valentine's Day even!  14.2.1943 if I am not wrong... He died on 30 November 2015...

Evacuation of Uterus

 

Consent for Operation

The gynae asked me to sign the paper after I told him that I want to abort my baby.  At that time, the foetus was just 6 weeks old.  I signed the paper and was asked to pass the paper to the nurse.  It was mention that the nature and effect of the surgery was explained to me.  In actual fact, nothing was explained to me.  No explanation from the gynae.  No explanation from the nurse.  So I asked the nurse, what is the effects of the surgery, she did not tell me.  

In my mind was to  just abort the baby.  So I did not ask more already.  

I killed my baby on 8 October 2002

I don't know what effects the abortion will have on my body.  I don't know how it will affect me spiritually too.  I just knew that my sister had abortion before and she was fine.  So I should be fine too.  I thought that abortion is okay.  It did not occur to me that I was killing my baby at that time.  

I learned from my sister that in SGH, if you want to abort the baby, they will try to stop you from doing it.  They let you watch a video on how life is formed.  Over here at the clinic, nothing was done to stop me at all.  I think it was all fated anyway.  

After the abortion, the doctor helped me to insert IUD into my womb.  It is a birth control method recommended by the doctor.  For a few years, it was inside my uterus until 18 November 2004 whereby my IUD was removed.  The gynae said my body was rejecting the IUD.  So after that I had no birth control methods.  

In the year 2006, we slowly went back to the church, because my children started primary schools and I wanted them to start catechism class.  Going to church, I had totally forgotten that I had committed mortal sins and could not receive Holy Communion.  I received Jesus still... and in the end, I was felt broken.  Slowly I was on my way to conversion in the year 2007, and in the year 2008, I encountered God who told me about the existence of purgatory.   I went to church for confession and had my sins absolved and back home, I had the most wonderful bath of all -- I was reborn again in water and spirit...

I was pregnant again in 2008

After God and Jesus came, how can I repeat my same mistake?  I kept my baby at all cost in the year 2008, giving birth to a healthy baby in the year 2009.

Grandma

 

Isaac and my hand placed and aligned on each other 

Last night, I looked at Isaac's fingers.  They are so long!  So we put our hands together, aligned properly, and his fingers are now longer and his hands bigger than mine!

Today I brought Isaac to see doctor.  In the room, the doctor asked me, "Are you the grandma?"  
This is not the first time people thought that I am Isaac's grandma.  If Isaac's brother and sister get married young, perhaps I will become grandma.  Some of my cousins who are younger than me have become grandparents already.  My elder brother and sister are grandparents now too.  

To be addressed as grandma sound so old, and indeed I am getting old...

White Hat

 

I am wearing a white hat during Thomas' baptism

I was searching for white beret where God showed me I was wearing a white rounded hat.  As I was searching, it came to my mind that I wore white hat before!  It was at Thomas' baptism and also on other occasion when I went out with Richard during those earlier days of my life.  I love that hat very much.  In fact I love that outfit that I wore in the photograph above.  

I am wearing a white hat during my First Holy Communion

The next occasion that I wore a white hat is during my First Holy Communion.  We were required to wear white and include a hat at that time.  During Clara's baptism, they were not require to wear any more hats.  In fact, for my three children, they were not require to wear any hat at all for their First Holy Communion.  



I am wearing a white hat during my visit to Beijing

The most recent time when I wear white hat was during our visit to Beijing.  I wore a white beanie kind of hat and am still having it at home.  God showed me the white cloud parasaurolophus dinosaur wearing a white hat and with long arms...
