shared sartorialism

in 2007
my great-grandmother
(god rest her soul)
presented me
with this
chinoiserie
outfit
and ever
since then
it has been
religiously
resurrected
for the annual
festive lunar new year
posterity pics

this year said outfit (literally) stretches even further with callum entering the fray.

lo hei kong hei

this year we decided to escape the heat of the kitchen
(read as mummy can't cook)
and ushered in the lunar new year
with a scrumptious dinner at shun fung on the river
with all the family and our godparents
complete with sunset views...

we wish you all a bountifully blessed year of the metal tiger!

a 1 and 2 and 3 and a... 4!

when you
have a birthday
at kindy age
your mummy
is expected
to turn into
some kind of
domestic goddess and

produce individual cupcakes for all one's classmates...
so with some splendid assistance from myself and the delightful Ms Crocker
mummy made up two batches of these scrumptious munchies.

We also kept up
the usual tradition
of celebrating
with a meal
with my
godparents
and this year
i had the
added joy of
having
my
kong kong
and
poh poh
join us all

as well as indulge me with a racing car trackand godpa and godma with a remote control car... the joys of being a child indeed!

thank you
everyone
for your
lovely
greetings,
wishes
and gifts
- i am
indeed
blessed
and
grateful

a new beginning

this year i turn
4 (four!!! oh my!!)
and thus officially
attend formal school
twice a week!
for posterity's sake
here is my
first day of kindy portrait
complete with
uniform, hat and bag.
thankfully it has all
gone swimmingly
as i am rather
enjoying the
experience so far...
