Time waits for no...baby...

How time flies...my wife is close to 23 weeks already and the time when she showed me the twin lines on the pregnancy test seems so long ago...
So far, so good as the last doctor appointment revealed a normal pregnancy with vital signs all positive! The doctor even gave us his best guess of the sex of the baby but we won't spread the news yet until it's confirmed...yes that goes for you as well our dear readers...
There has been up's (baby's yawn on the ultrasound...so cute) and down's (my wife's constant backaches) but through it all, our faith in our Lord is still strong. Please keep on praying for us as we are so close to the finish line and we want to finish strong.

    I'd like to wish You & Lynnette only the best in life. For this journey and forever. May God Bless You with a bundle of joy that keeps You both busy and proud forever.

    P.S. Procrastinate is not that bad a habit when You do everything at the wrong time. So write when Ur supposed to do something else. ;)

From Cuddles to Courtside: Baby Steps into the Sports Arena

Image
"Open your eyes, ref!", "Referee kayu !", "That was a foul, ref!" These were the words that involuntarily escaped my mouth as I stood courtside, watching my daughter represent her school in the recent MSSD Petaling Perdana Under-12 Handball tournament. It was her debut in a team sport, and let me tell you, the rollercoaster of emotions was in full swing. With each goal she scored (three in total, to be precise), my pride swelled like an overinflated balloon. But alas, her school's journey came to an end in the group stage, winning one game and losing three.  As the tournament approached, I found myself in an interesting predicament. You see, I knew next to nothing about handball, apart from what I gleaned from sporadic TV viewing, usually during the Olympics. But armed with memories of my father, or as I affectionately call him, Papa, and his tenure as my field hockey coach, I ventured into coaching territory. Hey, sports are sports, right? So, I borro

From Diaper Speedster to Running Superstar: My Baby's Incredible Journey

Image
You won't believe it, but my daughter has discovered her love for running! It's like she was bitten by the running bug, and there's no stopping her now. Who would've thought that running was hiding in our genes all this while? Well, except for Papa, who was a state runner, but let's not digress. Back when she was just a tiny tot, she was already showing signs of being a speed demon. I remember those diaper days when she waddled faster than a speeding bullet, and my wife and I would chase after her like we were in a race against time. Diaper speedster, they should add that to the Olympics! The first hint of her running prowess came during her kindergarten's fun run event. She had to pass the baton to her friend and, boy, did she turn on the turbo boost. She zipped past her classmates like the Flash on a mission. Unfortunately, her teammates couldn't keep up, and they toddled along like slowcoaches. Ah, kindergarten drama, you gotta love it! But it was in Stan

A rose (or a Baby) by any other name would smell just as sweet

Image
The Bard was an exquisite playwright and poet and the famous line of his from his play, Romeo & Juliet states, "A rose by any other name would smell just as sweet" came when Romeo was trying to woo Juliet even though knowing that their families would never agree to their union as they were sworn enemies. In this case, what's in a name? A name can signify kingship as in David, an explorer as in Marco or even a nurse as in Florence. I believe a name is a very important part of anyone. Me and my wife have gone through the vast expanse of baby names to come up with a perfect name for our little madam. Out of the thousands of names possible, what was the one name we decided was perfect for baby. Of course, we prayed and asked God first for His guidance before doing anything and after much thought and discussion, we finally decided... But wait, we will not make it too easy for you readers...sometimes things end perfectly happy and never in endings, that insults anyone..
