PSLE round 3. This will be our 3rd encounter with PSLE in 5 years!

PSLE Round 3

PSLE Round 3. While academics isn’t everything, it is important to our family. I ain’t no tiger mom but if you can get 100 in an exam and scored only 80 then you have done yourself a disservice. You have wasted your potential. But if your best is a 60 and you got 55, that’s a fantastic job! So that’s where I am coming from. Do your best. Read more…

Don’t make it more difficult than you have to

Some parenting advice is really complicated, long and drawn out. Some time back, I saw a post on feeding toddlers by the Dr Sears website. It was called 17 tips for pleasing the picky eater. (No, I am not putting a link here since I disagree with it. You can go google it :P) My immediate […] Read more…

The urgency of the times

So the first of the Blood Moons* have come and gone and everyone is waiting with abated breath to see whether the something major that is going to happen is really going to happen from now till 28th September 2015 😛 Whether you believe that the Blood Moons are a sign of Jesus coming for […] Read more…

Fasting from Facebook

Social media such as Facebook and Twitter, like all internet usage, can be a friend or an enemy of our time. Need a quick answer to or review of anything? Post it on Facebook and someone will surely have an answer or an opinion for you 🙂 It is a great way to reconnect with old friends […] Read more…

A little off

At a recent conference Henson and I attended recently, one of the speakers was described as being a little off because he was totally sold out for Jesus and His chosen people, the Jews. He was first led to leave his pastorate and eventually to participate in a growing global movement to bring the Jews […] Read more…

And the “baby” turns 5

It is official. We no longer have a baby in the house! She has turned 5! The little miss is certainly a force to be reckoned with – from her amazing entry into the world (See Birth Story #7) to her insistence on needing to be nursed all the time to me trying to sleep train […] Read more…

Grateful. Humbled.

On 11th March 2014, we celebrated 19 years of married life. And today, 12th March 2014, our “baby”, the 7th child, turns 5. For both events, I am truly grateful to our Lord. I do not take for granted our marriage and neither do I take for granted having our 7 living children. Influenced by […] Read more…

Rambling thoughts on homeschooling 7

Homeschooling is still such a foreign concept in Singapore that if I want to get any attention in a crowd, all I have to say is that I am a homeschooling mother 😀 I didn’t start out wanting to homeschool my children and definitely not all 7. And on certain days (months???) I still wonder […] Read more…

Good posts to ponder on

Here are some blog posts that I had shared on Facebook but not here. Be careful that in our search for a solution to our health issues, food, even when it is real food, does not become our god. Real Food is NOT a Savior Food is not your god Where satan tries to tear […] Read more…

Just a housewife

Recently, while having lunch with some acquaintances, a comment was passed by one of the women, “I am NOT a housewife, ok?” No one seemed to have caught it or if they did, they chose to ignore it. There had been the usual exchange of small talk before that comment. But with that statement or […] Read more…
