Letter No. 35 - Labrador Nature Reserve on National Day

Dear Lance,

You love the parachutes, helicopters, fighter jets, and fireworks so much.

But since we have already spent the last 3 Saturdays..

Watching the Singapore National Day Parade Rehearsals..

At the Marina Bay area..

We decided to go to Labrador Nature Reserve instead to play.. 

On the actual National Day.

But what a surprise!  (We did not know..)

As we reached the park..

3 helicopters carrying the state flags were circling around.. 

And 10 helicopters, 6 fighter jets, and more airplanes were flying here and there!

The cargo ships in the sea were also a treat..

Because they were just like your toys at home!

Then the playground sand.. and maze..

They all made your day..

And night.. 

With Daddy and Mommy.. perfect!

Love,

Mommy

Letter No. 34 - A Weekend in Mactan, Cebu

Dear Lance,

A glimpse of your near future..

Beaches and family..

That's our plan for you.

You were 29 months old..

When your Dico and cousins from the U.S. ..

Out of the blue..

Came to Cebu.

And so did we..

Because it's family!

It was beautiful there.

You were feeding fish with bread..

Because there were lots of them!

Feeding birds with fries..

Playing sand with your cousins..

And just soaking up with Daddy..

And Mommy.

And then..

There was Beco's engagement to Uncle Adrian!

It was such a memorable.. meaningful vacation..

And that smile says it all :)

Love,

Mommy

My Mountains and Mount Kinabalu

I have conquered mountains..

Of fears and of tears..

Of heights in the night..

In pain through the rain.

I have..

Not because of my courage and strength..

Not at all..

But because my hand has been held..

Over the clouds..

Beyond the sunrise..

Up the slopes..

10 steps at a time.

I have conquered my mountains..

Because I love him, and my little him.

Letter No. 33 - Taiwan

Dear Lance,

You do remember Taiwan with Mommy's family, right?



*Yes..

Because when I ask you about it..

You would say Guama, Guakong.. me!

Because we were in the same room as them!



You were 26 months old.. so fast and full of energy!

Golden Waterfall, Ruifang

Mommy got so exhausted from chasing after and carrying you..

Alice is Coming Restaurant, Zhongzheng

That after the trip, I realised I could handle anything in life! :)

Jiufen, Ruifang

But I loved our trip!

Did you like it?

*Yes..

Swiss Garden, Nantou

You were running and jumping around with your cousins and the birds..

Yehliu Geopark, Wanli

Picking up pebbles at the park..

Laughing at every little thing..

Taipei Zoo, Wenshan

Even at the tortoises and bears at the zoo.

You were just plain happy..

Rainbow Village, Taichung

And me, too.. 

Because of you!

Matina Mill, Cingjing

You made Taiwan so memorable for Mommy..
And I cannot wait to explore the world more with you!

Love,
Mommy
