Goodbye Samantha…

Indeed God loves her more than we do. Thank you all for your prayers.

She is now in God’s good hand. No more pain, no more fear but joy and peace of our Lord, Jesus Christ.

Will be bringing her back to Sitiawan tomorrow, to her Daddy and Mommy’s hometown, for burial.

Samantha…Daddy, Mommy & Jonathan kor-kor loves you. You will be missed dearly…

Prayer Request for Samantha

We know many of you out there are constantly praying for Samantha. We appreciate that and may God bless you. Please continue to pray for Samantha that she may be able to pull through this time and get well eventually.

We admitted her to GHKL yesterday after noticing her breathing rapidly and lethargic. She was not her usual self and she looks weaker and not responding much. Her condition is not getting much better today. Her blood test results are worsening and she doesn’t seems well clinically.

The Birthday Party

Hope it’s not too late to post this up…

We had a party for Jonathan 3 year old birthday on 10.10.2010.  A belated celebration as his actual birthday falls on a Friday. Some snapshots from the party. More in Facebook.

Engaged a face painter. At least got the kids and adults occupied with something. Check her out here.

Took this chance to meet up with some mommy bloggers…Chanel, MC, Yugene, Merryn , Joanne and Rachel.  Thanks guys for coming and the gift for Jonathan and Samantha.  And it was my first time meeting Chanel and Mchyl. Was so happy when they accepted my invitation.

So what is the takeaway from the birthday party?

No more birthday party for you, boy. I hope… 😛

Our very first party was on his fullmoon. We had a food caterer for both events and the no. of guests was more of less the same. But we were not feeling as hectic as this time.  Kimmy and I were going around entertaining the guests. And you may or may not know that I am not a sociable person and will try to avoid it if I can. So that Sunday was like forcing myself to greet and talk to people I know and worst, people I’m meeting for the very first time. Just doesn’t know what to say and how to make them feel not lonely.  Sorry guys, for being a bad host. 🙂

Find, Find, Find…

That’s how Jonathan would go singing while looking for his toys…“Find, find, find…everywhere. Find, find, find…everywhere.”

We are planning to send Jonathan to school next year. Not that I think he is ready but I think he needs to learn to be more sociable. I would expect some crying sessions and refusal in the beginning, knowing him, my son! It’s happening in Sunday School.

Another reason (more of an excuse you’d say), I am unable to spend fun-time with him at this moment. My mind have many activities that I would like to do with him but regretfully can’t (if you understand the situation I’m in now). Not wanting him to miss out all these, and so I think sending him to school is another way for him to learn, pick up more things and most importantly, have fun.

And so, a bit late, we are scouting for a school for him. Few aspects that we are taking into consideration when looking for a school for him.

Location
Either close to our house or along our way to work so that either Darling or myself can drop him off school. May be a bad idea because there will be tendency that he refuse to get down from the car.

Time
School must open its door by 7.45am, else we will be late to work. If this is impossible, we have to find a transporter. May be a good idea so that we don’t have to wake the sleepy head up early in the morning.

Fees
School fees can be rather expensive nowadays compared to many years back. We don’t mind paying a little more but must be reasonable. But how much is consider reasonable?

What are other aspects that you think I need to take into consideration?

What are the things that I need to observe or ask during my visit to the school?


Jonathan’s fav website

Jonathan loves his computers very much and he’s pretty much knows how to use them without us guiding him most of the times.

His favourite website now is the Disney Family Games. I personally find that this website provides many good activities for toddlers to learn words and songs.

Here’s a video of him playing one of the number matching game.

I Am 3 Years Old!

 

From my Mommy & Daddy:

 

Jonathan boy, you are our gift from God and we love you so much.
You are a smart and obedient boy,
you amaze us every day and bring joy into our lives.
May you always know that God loves you,
and that you are chosen to do good and wonderful things in your life.
And may the angels guide you, protect you all the days of your life.
