School Years

In school, kids do not only gain academic knowledge but also make friends. If they are lucky enough, then they will find their life time best friends. Being out of school for so many years, I still remember every parts of the school life while all the professional years do not make any marks except for those wrinkles and white hairs.

三羊開泰慶吉祥

Zozo's line is 三羊開泰慶吉祥. She practiced all week long and forgot on the stage. However, she was fine with it and had fun in the end. Keep moving forwards! Keep moving forwards!! My girls!

Growing up, I was always playing with my cousins for different plays. We set up different sciences, make up and story lines. Time flies. Most of my cousins are all over the world leaving me all the wonderful memories.

I am so happy that my friends hosted this wonderful Chinese New Year feast. It gave not only for hubby and me a wonderful time, but also let my girls a wonderful memory. This is all Chinese New Year about...

This is the first picture of the year that both girls enjoy their ice cream in the mall.

Time flies since we moved to the millennium. We have girls join our journey. Life is very colorful with girls around. I am so happy that I am their mom.

This is the first time I brought girls to see movie by myself. Girls were excited. The big one took notes in the movie as instructed by Daddy. The little one just loves the movie: "Alvin and the Chipmunks: The Sqeakuel." It won't be not a bad idea to start the tradition: Watching movie with girls at every 1st day of the year!!

Happy New Year! My Girls..

Zozo was fascinated by this classic nutcracker. She was playing with this for an hour without any interruptions.

It is amazing that kids can be satisfied with such a simple thing. For years, we tries so hard to pleased our kids: buy fancy toys, expensive clothes, amusement parks, etc.. and only find kids will enjoy as much as a walk in the park, a classic toy or just pet on the back as long as we are with them.

Going through almost a half of century , we still learn and re-learn new things from our kids. Life is full of surprises for sure..

This is Zozo's the third year of ballet lesson. She is getting better now in term of concentration. However, she still likes to make faces in front of mirror every now and then. I think this is just Zozo and that won't change no matter how old she is going to be.
