New Year's Party@ Grace's

Going to Grace's house is always fun...

One of the first mass parties I attended alone with Ace. It was a little awkward and maybe feels a little strange without Max. I wonder how many more I have to attend alone with Ace in the future... and though things were different... but the party was still fun!:)

I am posting and writing this almost 10 months later cos I am playing catch up here. But still, I can remember feeling a little empty despite surrounding

Nainai Birthday




 I think friends were surprised to see me appearing in this family photo that was posted on FB...






Though I had grand dreams of keeping family traditions and relationship the same as before with my ex-in laws. But that was i think the last Chua family celebration I attended.

The fact is, they are Ex... and it is awkward for all involved I guess to hang out together. It started with I couldnt make it when invited. Eventually the stopped inviting me.

By the time i finally managed to visit them once. I realized it was really awkward. So I guess I am happy to message them every now and then and remind my son to call them every week:)

I am glad Ace understands when I tried to share how I felt. Cos I really did want to keep some of the family traditions alive for him but this just cant be one of them at this stage of our lives.

Ace Jio Lele

Now that I work and he has lots of free time during school holidays, he has been coming up with creative ways to spend his time.

And he surprised me.. by taking the initiative to date Lele to play at the arcade with him. I didn't even know till Lele's mum told me:) Hahaha....

My son is indeed grown up!

Scratch My Back

Ace has been coming to my bedroom nightly... and asking me to scratch his back... Hahahaha

Perhaps now that I am working full time and have less time for him, that is his way of asking for more attention. I gladly oblige anyway:)  We have so little time together these days:)

 Biscuits, earrings and lots of useful items for Kat, Anita and Daphne



Elisa also gave Ace a kettle when I said our kettle went kaput cos she said she had extra at home. Ace said this is very good and wanted to use it to cook instant noodles cos he did not know how to use our Waterfront Key stove:) hahahaha

And what did we give others?

 
I made Ace help me make a brown sugar scrub for my friends and colleagues. It was the only way I can give alot of people presents with the limited budget I have and I hoped my heart made up for the lack of budget;)






I had some leftover and Ace used it when he bathed. He said it made his skin very smooth:) hahahaha... Maybe I will make more for myself to use when I am free...


 For his godmas, we had other plans on top of the scrubs....

 For Annie, because I promised her that I will get her the CRANE earrings but I couldnt find them at the place I bought mine.. so, I MADE HER A PAIR...

The rest of the godmas got baked brownie made by godson ;) He requested to add m&ms inside..

 I also went out with the girls and this year, we decided we go nice nice place to eat ;)
