Another 50 mins .....

Another 50 minutes to reach year 2010. With kids tagging along, no new year party, no celebration, can't join the crowd for count down and I missed the year whereby hubby and I watched fireworks at KLCC many many years back.

However, we did enjoyed our count down at home all this while simply because we still able to watch fireworks from our condo together with our kids. Isn't it greats!

So where are you now and how do you celebrate tonight?

Wish you and your family a wonderful and a blessed new year 2010........ :)

X'mas Party

I nearly got a heart attack when Audrey told me that her school is organizing X'mas party on the night before the party. "No present, how?" I asked her. She told me to wrap anything available outside (the bedroom). "Cannot, gal", then she asked me to stop at any shop to buy present on my way home tomorrow. Finally I sneak off after lunch to Tesco to buy a present and wrapped it in my office.

In the evening, it was heavy rain out there when I picked them from baby sitter. She insisted of going to the party as I told her we might cancel the plan if the rain never stop. Just to tease her.

See how happy was my gal to mingle around her friends. Mei Mei joined them too.

Singing x'mas songs in group.

She was so happy to get a gift. Can't wait to open it and see what's inside.

It's story books, how nice! But......

We noticed the story books were old with folder mark on the edge. Worst is one of the book was being tore off (my head shaking while looking at it). Obviously Audrey has received some used story book as her x'mas present that she was looking forward the whole night. Audrey asked me why the spoilt book was given as her x'mas present?

I'm speechless.... beside having this *#%$&* feeling, from my heart I have something to say to the parents out there who prepared this gift. Hey, please be more considerate and sincere in preparing x'mas gift to the kids as we didn't ask for something expensive, 2 new pencils will keep my gal happy the whole night ........

However Audrey still want me to read her that story books before going to bed. I made a promise to her that I'll buy her new story book in our next shopping.
