My Humble House

Dearest Skyler,

Aunty Rachel and Kor-kor Isaac came to play with you today. Did you enjoy yourself with them? You spent quite a bit of time sleeping as well while they were around so Kor-kor Isaac had to entertain himself during that time. :D

Later in the evening, Mama spotted a lump on your pelvis and we decided to bring you to see Balloon Uncle to check. Balloon Uncle confirmed that it was a swollen lymph node and he prescribed antibiotics for you as he suspected that it was due to a bacterial infection. Mama was so worried for you, Lil One!

However, as you were still okay, Papa continued to bring you to The Esplanade, Theatres on the Bay to attend the 60th birthday dinner of Papa’s Chek Chek. The dinner was held at My Humble House - a restaurant within the Esplanade. We were quite late as Grandma had told us to be there by 6.45 pm. We only got there at 8.00 pm. But guess what! They had only started the dinner when we got there! We still made it in time - sort of! :D

It had been a very long time since Papa had seen his Chek Chek … I think the last time I saw him was back in 1983 when Grandma and Papa visited them in England. We also met up with a lot of Grand Papa’s side of the family there. These are people that we hardly meet - even during the Lunar New Year, Lil One. So, it was quite special for Papa.

What was special for you, on the other hand, was all the food that you shared with Papa. Papa just fed you everything that came and you happily ate them all! You ate quite a bit of fish, chicken, mushroom, etc. Even Papa’s cousin’s wife commented that you were adventurous with food! :D

After we had sent Grandma home, it was very late when you got home, Lil One! So sorry for tiring you out!

We love you, Lil One!

Mama and Papa
