Our Precious Daughter is 5


Our dear Sarah has just turned 5 and she is growing up really fast and beautifully. She is truly God's gift to us - especially to Daddy. Sometimes, I think she was made especially for Daddy, to love him, to hug him, to comfort him, to hold his hand as he sleeps:) We praise and thank God for her.

Our little girl has learnt to hold the reins with us in the family and take on our burdens. 
  • For one, she is always Sammy's keeper. Watching him when we cross the roads or warning us when he goes astray and always urging us to hold his hand lest he gets lost in the crowd. 
  • She is a great travel buddy. Almost highly independent. This trip [sudden trip to London], she heads to the airplane toilet all on her own and cleans the seat and washes her hands because she likes to do it and because she doesn't want mommy to busy herself going up and down for Sammy and her. She even brushed her teeth on her own this trip. But of course, she loves being on the airplane, eating and watching and sleeping. 
  • Sarah knows when mommy needs help and would not hesitate to sacrifice her comfort to help mommy. That means lugging some things when mommy's hands are full with other bags. 
  • She is our private iphone photographer when Daddy and Mommy want to take those special husband-wife shots and there is no one in sight.
  • She would remind the forgetful mommy when she sees mommy leaving things around. 

But, even if she did none of the above, we still love her very much because Sarah is God's special gift to us.  

We love you Sarah.
