Ansel is four months old!
Well, for a period of time, I found it tough and exhausting to stay up to make these videos. Yet every time I look at my baby, I'm reminded of how fleeting these months, and years, are. Thus, that motivates me to do it no matter how difficult it is. If I had the time, there are so many more precious moments of my kids that I hope to turn into everlasting memories. Still, no matter what, that shouldn't stop me from being truly present instead of living my life behind a lens when they are beside me, right?
One of the biggest highlights of Ansel turning four months old was his first food ceremony! It is a tradition that we've kept to since over a decade ago with our first baby girl and I'm glad we've kept it up over the years. The kids were looking forward and so enthusiastic about feeding their baby brother for the first time and I hope he knows how much he is loved by all of us.
Having four kids might mean a constantly messy, chaotic and rowdy home but whenever I look at such videos which showcase the sweet moments of having a baby and the bliss of having kids who love and care for each other, I know I made the right choice for myself. Love you so much, my darling Ansel!

I PRAY FOR YOU... Surah Al-Mursalat is one of my favourite surahs in the Quran, especially the version recited by @omarhishamalarabi. I must confess that when I first read this surah many many years back, I didn’t take the initiative to read the meaning of this surah. When I came to carefully learn its meaning, it gave me goosebumps!
I’m sure I’m not the only one who feels frightened when hearing about The Last Day or The Last Hour. The day when there will be violent storms, great shaking of earthquakes. Thinking about the last hour, I reflected upon my life. They say that life is the result of our own actions. I couldn’t agree more! The seeds of our actions we plant in this world...we will taste its fruits in the life after. Whether the fruit is sweet or sour, we’re solely accountable for it!
And glad tidings from Allah be to those who bear patience. Patience when facing tough times. Patience when dealing with the loss of loved ones. Patience when suffering with great illness. Allah has guaranteed those who are patient that He will give them rewards without measure. Patience and victory are twin brothers. Allah promised those who are patient that He is with them and will grant them a clear victory!
I’m addressing you...anyone who is affected by sickness or illness, especially my dearest sister Mrs Mom @thefamily.uk. I sincerely pray for you: “May The Almighty, who is capable of making the impossible possible, heal you and give you strength. May He grant you a cure. May He grant you miraculous recovery. May the love, peace and comfort be with you as you battle this illness. May He cure you and reward you for all the suffering that you’re going through. May He grant you a complete return to normal health and make you even better than you were before.” 💝

It'a been a year since the big girl started on her Ortho-K journey and we are happy to update that she is still loving being specs-free and enjoying perfect eyesight! Woohoo!
In fact, this active girl who loves to dance, loves the beach and loves outdoor activities says that she never ever wants to wear specs again. Haha. Well, maybe except when she has sore eyes and has to skip wearing her lens for a night.
For those who don't know, Orthokeratology, or Ortho-K, is the use of specially designed and fitted contact lenses to temporarily reshape the cornea in order to improve vision. It is a surgery-free method to mainly correct myopia, or short-sightedness. Ortho-K lenses are worn at night to reshape the front surface of the eye while you sleep and they are described as "braces for the eyes".
She has totally gotten accustomed to her daily routine and doesn't take more than 10 minutes to remove her lens in the morning or put them on before bedtime. We are truly glad to have embarked on this journey with Eyesight.sg and thankful for the wonderful service they provide during every review. To read more about our experience, search for 'ortho k a happy mum'.
It was also awesome hearing how our friend recently did it for her 9yo daughter too and was incredibly amazed to see how her eyesight became 6/6 within a month. Yup, it always makes me happy to know that our recommendation worked well for others too.
As a mum, I am happy seeing her big smiles and knowing that she loves her life. To my girl, it's okay that we have small eyes hor, we just want them to be healthy and our vision to be clear. Continue enjoy being specs-free and remember to practise good reading habits, yeah? Love ya! ❤
P.S. She is wearing her pretty Rapunzel mask from @twofunnybears. Join our ongoing giveaway (see previous post) if you are keen to win!
P.P.S. Looking grown up here, doesn't she? Almost 11 already! Btw this is a skorts (skirt with shorts), cos' Mama says no mini skirts are allowed for now. Lol.

Samuel Dalembert learned Friday that an uncle, a carpenter feared dead in his home country Haiti, was alive. His godfather finally contacted Dalembert's relatives.
Dalembert felt some personal peace that family members in his home country were alive. But hearing the first-hand accounts of the extreme death and destruction in earthquake-ravaged Port-au-Prince has left the NBA's only Haitian wanting to help his countrymen so much more.
"I feel much better, but still my heart is for those who lost their loved ones," he said.
The Philadelphia 76ers center finds 48 minutes of distraction each night on the court. Dalembert made a $100,00 donation to help relief efforts, then had 17 points and 12 rebounds to lift the Sixers to a 98-86 win over the Sacramento Kings on Friday night.
"I'm trying to do my best and contribute," a reserved Dalembert said of the relief effort. "The Philadelphia people responded. Everybody everywhere responded. That's a really good feeling. We're a nation of good hearts."
Dalembert taped a public service announcement for UNICEF encouraging fans to support the relief efforts in his home country. His donation went to UNICEF.
"I know, at a time like this, times are tough in our own home. But you find a good heart to help us out," he told the crowd before the game. "Everything is accepted. Don't feel like anything is too small to help out."
The Philly fans responded. The Sixers said in the third quarter they raised more than $30,000 at the UNICEF table on the concourse during Friday's game. Dalembert pledged to match the amount of money donated by Sixers fans.
"As soon as the game starts, my mind is basically on the game," he said. "I try to not think about anything. The game is a good distraction."
Dalembert made all seven of his shots and had three blocks.
Thaddeus Young scored 20 points for the Sixers and Allen Iverson had 17. The Sixers hit a pair of 3-pointers during a 10-0 run in the fourth quarter that turned a tight game into a comfortable victory in front of one of their largest crowds of the season.
The Sixers are a modest 3-2 since team president Ed Stefanski refused to guarantee coach Eddie Jordan would last the season. They could be headed toward their usual pattern of getting off to a miserable start before regrouping in January and February and sneaking into the playoffs.
Jason Thompson had 19 points and 16 rebounds for the Kings. Kevin Martin scored 19 points in his first game after missing the past 32 with a wrist injury. Martin was injured Nov. 2 when he collided with Iverson, then with Memphis.
The game marked a homecoming for Kings guard Tyreke Evans, of nearby Chester, Pa. He was a McDonald's All-American out of American Christian and a two-time state player of the year.
One of the league's top rookies, Evans failed to impress his hometown crowd, scoring 14 points. He missed 10 of 13 shots from the floor and made all eight free throws. He had hundreds of fans waiting for him near the Kings bench after the game.
"I was glad for people to see me play for the first time," he said. "I was probably thinking about it a little too much out there."
Elton Brand -- who was benched for entire fourth quarters a month ago -- scored 14 points for the Sixers and continued to find success in his role as an $80 million reserve. Dalembert and Brand combined to make their first 10 shots from the floor, the kind of production the Sixers envisioned they'd see more out of the frontcourt.
"I'm glad to be out there and contribute to winning," Brand said. "That's what hurt the most, losing and not being out there. Being out there trying to help, you feel good about yourself."
Andre Iguodala, who sprained his right ankle in the first quarter and briefly left the game, started the fourth-quarter run with a 3-pointer, then sank two free throws the next time down. Lou Williams capped the small but decisive spurt with another 3 that turned a one-point lead into an 11-point edge.
Iguodala, who said his ankle was bothering him "quite a lot," scored 12 points and had 10 rebounds.
Dalembert has long been the most-maligned Sixer because of his erratic production for such a bloated contract. He's enjoying one of his finest seasons and had his eighth double-double of the season.
"Sam's been anchoring us the whole year," Iguodala said."
Game notes
The 76ers held a moment of silence for late R&B singer Teddy Pendergrass, who died Wednesday. ... The Comcast-Spectacor Foundation made a $10,000 donation to UNICEF, and Comcast-Spectacor -- which owns the 76ers and Philadelphia Flyers -- planned to air public service announcements. ... The Sixers held the Kings to a season-low 37 percent shooting. ... Iguodala had his fifth double-double.
