CNY was rather quiet for me this year... Did not manage to organise any gatherings for my classes so I only hosted those students who initiated to visit me...

My domestic helper went home yesterday evening... she needed to go home to take care of her children as her husband is going to another country to work. My family decided to send her off to the airport because she was a valuable help to us and has become a part of the family. When we were at the carpark, all the helpers from all our neigbouring units came out all at the same time to say goodbye... a rare sight to behold... it felt as if they were sending off a dear friend and companion working together in a foreign land... When the five of us snuggled up to bed together last night, there was a sweet feeling that we are all by ourselves again... depending and helping one another as a family...

we have decided to go maid-less for as long as we can so that the kids can learn to help out with the chores...it's not going to be that easy since we are homeschooling the kids too... that means the kids are with us 24/7! there goes the time where the both of us can go out together once in a while...oh well, at least there are a couple of people who have volunteered to babysit them so that we can have some time out ;) will not abuse this privilege though :) we still love to have them hanging around most of the time!
