Our boy has turned 12 years old today. 

Happy Birthday, my boy. We love you and hope all your wishes will come true:)

We are are glad that Papa Ed flew back on time from overseas assignment to celebrate with us and brought home more birthday gift for Brendan. 

Papa Ed brought home a story book in addition to the two boxes of  gifts that we have already given Brendan and birthday boy also received ang paos and many sessions of delicous meal treats. Hehe…the non-birthday members got our gifts too from Papa…a bottle of perfume for me and stationery items for Darren:)

In a mother’s eyes, our beloved son will still remain a child, enjoying his sweetest 12…

From Brother Darren with love. Sweet! I wish I had a sibling too  for me to shower my love. 

What makes a birthday celebration memorable for our family?

No, It’s not the gifts. It’s not a mega-sized birthday party.

But the company, the efforts to set aside time for one another to celebrate together and the entertaining moments that always amuse our boys. Hehe! Papa Ed never fails to surprise our boys with his dance moves and now the silent drama:) Family members coming together to plan the celebration programme makes both our boys look forward to organising all these programmes every year.

Dances during Brendan’s birthday celebration that bond our family to shake together and have a really good laugh. We have little time for rehearsals together but enjoy the dance most anyway with all the impromptu moves:)

A hundred cranes…..never-ending well-wishes for Brendan….These cranes, folded by Darren and mommy for Brendan, not only usher in luck but create a cheerful and colourful sight in my bedroom cum Brendan’s study area.
