Weekend Reflections: Birthday Celebrations and Making Memories

Doggie boy turned 6 this week and this year he requested for an Angry Bird Space cake for his birthday. He had been having an overload of Angry bird since we visited the Angry Bird Space Playground at the airport last month. He was really happy to see his birthday cake and had a cake cutting session with his school mates.

Blowing out the candles

He tried blowing out his candles with gusto but was surprised when it started to relight by itself. He didn’t know that we bought relighting candles and it would take him and his siblings 7 attempts to get all the candles blown off. It was a good investment for $1.50.

It was the last time that he would be celebrating his birthday with his Kindergarten friends as he will be entering Elementary school come January 2013. I know that he will be missing the cozy environment and all the friends that had been together with him for the past few years.The birthday celebration marks and end to his preschool life and a closure to a chapter of his life.

I’m sure looking back at the photos and videos which I took on this birthday he will certainly have warm and fuzzy thoughts on his mind.

Writer’s Workshop: Dear Santa

Christmas Tree

Dear Santa,

We won’t be having our Christmas Tree up this year. It has been an extremely busy month coupled with the fact that we won’t be at home to enjoy the tree on Christmas day. Even though the tree won’t be up but could I have some presents under the virtual tree instead?

To make it easier for you I have listed down some items I would like to see for me under my virtual tree.

Spa Vouchers.
It would be great if I could have some spa vouchers to go for a massage to ease my aching muscles. We did go for an hour long massage when we were in Thailand but being able to go more frequently would certainly perk up my day.
Shopping vouchers
Shopping vouchers would be good too. I would like to revamp my current wardrobe and get some new additions. It would be great to get new clothes for the kids too.
Travel vouchers
I love visiting new places and with travel vouchers I would be able to save the hefty airfare involve in transporting the whole family out of Singapore to our chosen destination.
Helper on demand
It would be so ideal if I could get a helper on demand to do stuff like pick up the kids, clean the house or just baby sit them so that I have more time to go for regular Zumba classes and really be able to get down to ideal weight faster.
