Friday Life

It's a Friday, and we're out on a holiday!

Lake Matheson, Franz Josef, New Zealand

Just kidding.. And just wishing!

I'm just home.. Trying to make my baby sleep :)

Letter No. 3 - Night Time Snuggles

Dear Lance,

You have become so active..

Mommy has to eat a cup of rice every time she tries to make you stay still for 2 seconds!

You.. have become my gym :)

But at the end of the day.. 

No matter how much freedom and space I give to you..

You always come crawling and rolling back to me..

And I just want to say.. I love you, too!

Love,

Mommy

Letter No. 2 - Krabi With You, Baby

Hi Lance,

We went to the beach last week.. Do you remember?

It was 1.. 2.. 3..

You, Daddy, and Mommy!



It was our first family vacation.. And it was in a place called Krabi in Thailand..

You were so happy!

Everyone at the resort adored you.. And you were so friendly :)

Though you missed a lot of sleep.. You never cried.. Not even once.. 

You were always so patient and we are so proud of you :)

It was your first time to touch and feel sand.. And you did a good job! 

You did not attempt to eat it :)

And the waves.. Do you remember the waves?

You liked them!

You were kicking and squealing every time they came..

You are a water baby!

Well sweetheart.. There is one thing you should know..

It was actually Daddy's 35th birthday.. 

And all he wanted was to spend it with you..

When we got to the resort.. You were already tired..

He wanted to eat his cake..

But he waited until the next day so that he could blow his candles with you..

He also took you to the beach for your naps.. 

But every time he sat down on a hammock.. You would wake up..

He walked and walked for hours.. Carrying you.. Just so you could sleep..

He will do anything for you..

Our little sunshine..

We hope we could always make you so happy :)

Because you always make us so happy :)

Love, 

Mommy

Letter No. 1 - Dear Lance

Dear Lance,

I know that you will grow up with a lot of beautiful memories etched in your heart someday. 

But mommy has created a section in this blog called Letters to Lance.. 

Yes, they are letters for you, my love. 

It is a treasure chest for you to remember those memories with your eyes and ears when you can no longer remember them with your mind..

It is a collection of stories your daddy and mommy cherish and love to tell.. 

Because sweetheart, we are just so fond of you..

It is a diary to remind you of those words I whisper to you everyday.. 

That I love you so much, and I will always love you, forever. 

Love, 

Mommy

The Blues of Santorini

I once told myself that I cannot go to Santorini, Greece with just anyone..

It is a place I have reserved for my future husband..

From the ferry.. From afar..

Skaros Rock, Imerovigli

Stepped on it.. Santorini..

Thank God, I got one! :)

The neighbours on the right..

The neighbours on the left..

Vallais Villa

Heaven on a villa..

Estia Restaurant

Souvlaki and Moussaka..

A merry Greek bliss..

In front of my eyes..

A wine not mine..

Anogi Restaurant

Tomato balls to dine..

At the highest peak of Santorini..

Monastery of Prophet Elias

A monastery..

Santo Wines Winery

Red and white flowers.. Red and white wines..

Caldera cruises..

Pyrgos Restaurant

A date at times..

Off to the beach..

Red Beach

A red, red beach..

Breakfast yoghurt and honey..

So long Imerovigli..

Oh awe..

Oia

Oh Oia..

A path so pretty..

So fresh and white..

Breathe deeply..

Blue domes.. just hug me tight!

Lost in a maze..

Another sunset to gaze..

Lovely, lovely Santorini..

Delfini Villas

You are such a beautiful memory :)
