After seeing many dropped dead especially at young age, my prayer for this year birthday would be health sustaining until perhaps I have a chance to see our children married, have kids, and if it is not too much, allowing me to fetch the kids from school. My father passed on at the age of [...]

After a challenging head start of the year, and much pain and suffering that sons have to go through in their previous school, may God receives all glory, they are settling well in their current school. More so, they are doing much better academically compares to the previous school.
Last year, we don not remember hearing from the sons that they wanted to bring gifts to their teachers during the teachers’ day. But I think they did, especially the wrapping was done by either Retna or I. However, with the changed of new school (obviously from their previous school), they seems to like their [...]
