Flashback Fridays

April 2015 at a formal function 

If I could give our younger selves a piece of advice, it is to prioritize going for cooking classes together before the kids come along and cooking a good meal regularly together.

I have come to realize that knowing how to cook is an important life skill no matter how high or low your education level is; or how rich or poor you are; or how high or low your position at the corporate world is; or how frequent you go to the restaurant; or whether you are a male or a female.

Alas this is lost in Singapore as live-in maids or grandparents at home is a common place although mindsets are slowly changing.

It’s my wish and prayer that both Little FECS and Baby FECS will want to learn how to cook and that I could inspire them to do so.

“Train up a child in the way he should go; even when he is old he will not depart from it.” - Proverbs 22:6

If I were to give my younger self an advice, that is to always use sun screen for the whole family. That’s the secret to youthfulness. But since I am still young, I can still take my own advice :-D

Throwback Thursdays

 

I promise Daddy FECS that I will sort through our photo albums and find a back-up solution. What technology do you use to back-up your photos? 

It’s been a year since I have been a full-time mom, and I still haven’t done it yet. Life as a full-time mom is really busy 😅 

Finally I have started organizing our old photos. That will make Daddy FECS very happy. When he is happy, I am happy too 😃 

And I am starting a series called “Throwback Thursdays” and “Flashback Fridays”

Looking through old photos brought back so much memories…

This picture was taken in 2006 in our old apartment in Hellerup. Those were the days in our married life when I still had the leisure of time to make sushi 🍱 

It felt like just yesterday, but 15 years have flew past since.

It teaches me to appreciate our life together. Life is short. I am more determined than ever to let go of minor annoyances and to really appreciate and cherish each other. The days are short.

Before we know our life together today will all be in the past. Before we know, we may not have the health like before… Hopefully I am a bit wiser today 😊 

What about you? Does looking back at old photos make you appreciate your spouse more?

God bless your marriage ❤️

Married to my Boo Boo Honey Bee for 19 years 7 months 29 days and still counting 😆

Memory from 2005 Christmas in Singapore during the kids-free days…

Many things have changed since… expanding waistline, more white hair and wrinkles… from the demands of parenting, the responsibility of supporting a family and the ever so imperfect wife 😁

But at least one thing stays the same - your steadfast integrity towards work and your commitment and love for the marriage and the family❤️… no matter how much I exasperate you 😆

Our children and I are so blessed because of you 🥰

Throwback Thursdays

 

Sweet memories from 2004 during those carefree kids-free days...

Through the ups and downs and thick and thin over the years... the bond and memories grow deeper as we mature and grow older :-)

Thank you for your love, commitment, steadfastness, forgiveness and faithfulness... they are new every morning :-)

Thanking God for every single day
