Surprise Visitor

 

A blue bird flew into Isaac's room on 25 November 2023

On 25 November 2023, Isaac came to my room and told me that there is a blue bird in his room.  Watch the video here.  I was so excited and when with him to check it out.  Wow, the bird looked so nice and this is such a beautiful bird as shown above!  The bird was not scared of people at all.  When Isaac put his hand near him, it did not fly away too.  

The bird stayed for very long and after that it flew away.  It is said that the birds came to deliver good news.  And perhaps it is true.  In December, I got an offer for a new job, and Isaac got his new bicycle this month.  I also have my new computer this month too : ).

Taco is so curious about the new parcel delivered on 1 March 2024

Jesus never fail to give me surprises.  He is constantly watching over me and helping me in my life.

The little hand that I used to hold has now grown bigger and stronger than mine!

Handsome Taco

Taco's picture taken on September 2023

 Taco is 2 years old now.  He is so handsome and cute.  Taco is just like human being.  Whenever there are new things at home, he is always so curious.  He would come to explore.  When I bring home new things, he would try it out too.  

My first encounter with Taco was at Singapore Carton.  Over there, there were two kittens, one grey like Dora and the other one is Taco.  I tried to catch the kittens and my first catch was Taco.  I actually wanted the grey one like Dora, but perhaps that was fate.  Taco was the one that we caught in the end also.  

Taco is just like a gift from God also.  We prayed that we could go home with a cat and we did.  The baby Taco is now adult Taco.  And I am so glad that Taco is my companion now.  Initially, it was the children who wanted a pet.  Then we got Dora.  Then now we got Taco.  The first time Taco came to the home, Clara and I bathed him.  After that, Isaac wanted to help and we both bathe him together.  Now, today, since his adulthood, I bathe him for the first time, and it was very smooth.  I don't get scratch and he did not struggle that much.  

Taco sitting inside the Canyon Bicycle box

Recently Isaac bought a Canyon Bicycle and Taco joined in the fun.  He was with us all the time when the children unbox it and he was as usual, going inside boxes whenever we unbox parcels.  

Every morning, I fed Taco can food. Some morning when I woke up late, he would come to my bed and woke me up.  He even 'kiss' me for maybe two times.  

I never like cats when young and never even thought of having cats.  But I love keeping cats now.  They are so independent, and they don't any how urinate or poop.  He would do all his business in the litter box.  Every morning, I need to sweep the floor as the litter would spill out from the litter box.  Sometimes he also vomit on the floor.  At times, his poop would land outside of the litter box too.  Other than that, Taco is a very clean cat.

New Computer

 

I am cutting the cake which was made by Clara

 I am very happy with my current life.  I am very blessed.  My son had made me a new desktop computer.  I am able to do blogging once again.  The above picture was me cutting the birthday cake which was made by Clara.  The three children helped to decorate the cake.  It was a wonderful birthday.  On that day, I was 52 years old! I gave birth to Isaac when I was 38 years old.  Now, Isaac is 14 years old!  

Hoh Law Corporation at Woodlands Branch

For 2 months I went to work at Hoh Law Corporation at Woodlands Branch.  I worked as a Customer Service Officer there.  It is basically a receptionist job.  I love the job and it was a simple job.  I answered phone calls and attend to customers' needs.  I got to meet many customers, helped them with queries and fixing appointments.  I helped the paralegals to do payment vouchers and some errands too.

Unfortunately, due to home commitments, I had to resign from the job.  In two months only, I took almost 9 days of unpaid leave.  That was too much to take for a staff.  My boss, Bryan was such a kind boss.  The best boss that I had ever encountered.  On my last day of work, the lawyers gave me a small gift.  

NTUC gift card from Bryan and Zhane

This was the first time I received such a gift card from someone.  On that day, I went to Causeway Point as usual to buy dinner.  As I need to go NTUC to buy groceries, I saw Durians.  Just happened that there was offer and I bought Durians on that day.  I felt relieved that my busy schedule was over, but at the same time, I missed such a wonderful job.

Amazing Grace

 

This is me singing amazing grace...

Today is my father's third year death anniversary.  I took leave to attend the prayer that I had booked with the priest.  At first my mother told me not to come here today because I need to go to work.  However, I dreamed of him one morning.  I realized that I had to come and see him.  I don't want to miss a session of prayer to him.  

Today, the priest asked us to choose a hymn.  Johnny chose amazing grace.  I thought it was a beautiful song and i could sing loud.  However the moment I began singing the song, tears swelled up in my eyes.  I could not control my voice also.  I controlled my tears and I had to sing to myself instead.  

The lyrics for Amazing Grace...

All the words for the song was so meaningful to me.  The priest told us that my father was physically not present but he is still alive.  It is our faith that can assured us that one day we will meet again...
