Sixth

"Your sister?" The most common phase i've been getting for the past 5 years. But no that's a piece of me :'-) Every year when her birthday is approaching, i tend to look through her photos all the way back to since she was born.... I'd be looking back and realize how much things changes...

2010, first birthday. When this little bumpy pie started taking her first step.

2011, second birthday. When this little chatty angel started learning how to talk.

2012, third birthday. When the little dora knows what she likes or wants.

2013, fourth birthday. When the girlish girl wanna dress up as pretty as a princess.

2014, fifth birthday. When she started having close friends and loves her best friends so much.

2015, sixth birthday....

Happy 6th my baby girl. I love you.

7 days

 

7 days. Another 7 days to my little girl's 5th birthday. I've been cracking my brain on how to celebrate her birthday and i settled on a simple celebration with family only haha. As of the above for the past 4 years, Barney, Dora, Princess. I guess it'd been grand enough for the past 4. Hahah.

Love you, so much.

Date with Shannon

Date with my little girl on a Saturday. Dine at Ambush / located at Jem Level 4. I like the interior design. Shannon kept mentioning that it was clean and comfy there! Good that it wasn't packed and we didn't have to wait too long for our food as we bought movie tickets for Frozen and we only had 45 minutes to eat!

 When the food was here, my sweet little pie reminded me "Mummy, don't eat first, remember take photo ah" Hahaha. So there it goes, our food, and us.

After eating, we rushed up to the theater for FROZEN. I know we're abit slow but we manage to watch it before it's no longer in the cinemas. Very nice movie! After the movie, we just walk around, taking a look at the ballet school. Have the urge to sign Shannon for ballet ^^

A piece of me

  

Sometimes i look back and i couldn't believe myself. A little girl just around the height at my waist, my daughter. And she's going to attend a primary school very soon in another 2 years (2016), im just going to graduate from polytechnic at that year... A heartfelt post, she's turning 5 years old on 31st March. 5 years old.... I didn't expect that coming. It's just like... i was too young.

How tough it was to make that decision to had her or... When the man simply just betrayed you like it doesn't matter. I don't know, i love him too much back then. Honestly all those memories are kinda blurry now, but i still could remember bits and pieces of it. I guess i didn't really want to stay in my mind too thou. 

Recently, i happen to bump into him when i wasn't quite sober. I love no more, but when i see him, it still hurts that bad.... I was going to cry, but i held back.... When he started giving a little concern when he shouldn't, it hurts even more. Ok period.

But now, she's all that matters.

 Regrets? Yes definitely. Day by day, she's growing up. I couldn't give her a perfect family, yet. I became more cautious in making my choices. I gave up alot, which was the best for her. I couldn't bring myself to get with someone who don't love her as much as i do. It's gonna take really long to find the one, but one day we'll be the happiest :-)
