For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life. – John 3:16 (NIV)

This song reminds me of John 3:16. Please take time to listen to this. At The Cross by Hillsong United. It’s part of their album entitled Mighty To Save in 2006. Happy Sunday!

Oh Lord You’ve searched me
You know my way
Even when I fail You
I know You love me

Your holy presence
Surrounding me
In every season
I know You love me
I know You love me

Chorus:
At the cross I bow my knee
Where Your blood was shed for me
There’s no greater love than this
You have overcome the grave
Your Glory fills the highest place
What can separate me now?

You go before me
You shield my way
Your hand upholds me
I know You love me
(Repeat Chorus 2x)

Bridge:
You tore the veil
You made a way
When You said that it is done (2x)

And when the earth fades
falls from my eyes
You stand before me
I know You love me
I know You love me
(Repeat Chorus 2x)
(Repeat Bridge4x)

Greggy was only three years old when I decided to enroll him in nursery. Although I knew he didn’t enjoy school very much because of their daily routinary activities such us writing, coloring, recess, and lots of homework (no creative activities that will stimulate the minds of the young), I am glad he was able to make it on his Graduation Day. Congratulations, baby! You made mommy and daddy really proud!

More pictures here.

He got three special awards: Most Cheerful, Most Confident and Best in Practical Life Activities.

I was a little reluctant to go back to work. But I don’t have a choice, do I? LOL.

My fellow QAs prepared a welcome tarpaulin for me. They hung it at my station. How sweet! Thanks, guys! It really made my day.

It took me two hours before I recognized this thing above my head though. LOL. By the way, this blog is now hosted at 3ix. I love their 24/7 chat support! They made things easier for me. But my other blog is still hosted at O2g . I can’t believe their server has been down for almost a week now without notice. When their server is finally up and running, I’ll transfer it to 3ix.

Proverbs 22:26
Train a child in the way he should go, and even when he’s old he will not turn away from it.

Two weeks from now, my 78-day maternity leave will come to an end. I can’t help but feel a little melancholy. I know I’ll have a lot of catching up to do in the office and I’ll probably be very busy. I am scared to lose time and energy for my little angels. Part of me just wants to stay at home and take care of the kids, do a little ministry work in our church and put up a small business. But the truth is, I don’t have the guts to do so. I know in my heart that being a stay-at-home mom is a luxury that I can’t afford right now.

I need to help my husband reach our goals. After all, it’s for our kids’ future. All we want is to give them the kind of life they deserve.

My wonderful children, Greg (4 years old) and Ayesha (1 month old).

I only hope and pray that God would help us raise our children well while working earnestly for their future. Child-rearing is not an easy task. You don’t instantly reap what you sow. As parents, we are bound to wait years till we see the real fruit of our hardwork. One day, I want to be able to give myself a pat on the back and say, “Honney, you did an excellent job raising your children!”
