最近比较忙

Working on a number of things recently..

Fact is.. for most of the things I'm happily involved with them while others require me to intentionally put in hard work.

Today, we went tomb sweeping. It's with the relatives on my mum's side. We usually go to the columbarium in remembrance of my grandma, grandpa and granduncle, then to my great grandfather's tombstone. This year, we went to visit baby Anna Jane at Trinity Methodist Church too.

It's been a year. We recall that in the short period of time when Anna Jane was with us, she helped us to gain so much and love so much. We remember her in our prayers and we pray that may the Lord continually lead the family and bless them with the desires of their hearts for another baby in His time. :)

As I mentioned previously, there'll be a few upcoming events in the family>>
Isabelle's first birthday on 18 Apr
Charlotte's 满月 on 26 Apr

"Tricky" events for the family to meet each other. But I pray that may the Lord be merciful and gracious to us (as He always is) especially as we go through these.

Today we celebrated my da yi's birthday. She's the grandma of Anna and Charlotte. We have been keeping up with birthday celebrations recently. It's a lot of effort but, we wanna seize every moment spent with everyone :) hopefully these beginning steps lead us a long long way in understanding each other in greater depth!

Looking forward..
The other things I've to look into/ongoing includes..
-Planning teachers' retreat
-Plan and liaise my sister's 21st!
-Writing mid year progress report and portfolio
-Vet the chinese tchs' work for above tasks
-"Receive" the handover from the head tch who's leaving
-Present at Parents' Workshop
-Prepare and attend SL meeting
-Prepare to teach Sunday School in the next trimester
-Start planning my short family Bangkok getaway over Vesak Day hols with my sisSmiling face with smiling eyes
-Diligently keep up with CIC "homework"
-Plan a family gathering over Labour Day probably?
-Meet someone intentionally for a HTHT to try to understand a bigger problem

The list is definitely not exhaustive. But I would like to choose to be forward looking in facing what the Lord has in stored for me :)

Fighting!! Praying!!
