Incidentally, T is also for ‘two’, and that’s how old Kaitlyn has been for a while now. She is definitely going through her terrible two’s (😝 another T word) and between now till she turns three, so much is happening for her developmentally.

Pleasing Puppy, Hiding Cat
Nope, this entry has nothing to do with my darling cat, Knight. This is about my kids, my two little miracles (I have to remind myself 😂). I haven’t written in a while, thanks to the pandemic that had the whole of Singapore on lockdown — COVID-19. With the Circuit Breaker in place, we were… Continue reading Pleasing Puppy, Hiding Cat
A Chocolate Affair
I’m not a chocolate lover. Yes, I do eat the occasional chocolate, but I am very, VERY picky about it. Ask my family or my friends. Most will reply I don’t eat chocolate made in Asia. Any chocolate that I do eat comes from Europe or Australia. I especially enjoy Gianduja the most, but that’s… Continue reading A Chocolate Affair
The Tapestry Of Friendship
Who remembers ICQ? The iconic “Uh-oh!” meant you’d received a message. ICQ was a popular instant messaging platform that allowed you to message your friends and family, and even connect randomly with others around the world! I’d chatted with people from USA, UK, Australia, Germany, just to name a few. 23 years ago, I received… Continue reading The Tapestry Of Friendship
Read To Me Please
I wish I had a big brother like the one Kaitlyn has. Joshua is just so amazing with her!

He loves making her laugh, and… Continue reading Read To Me Please

Each brand tries its best to make it seem like their product is a must-have, something every mother can’t live without. This time round, I had the freedom to… Continue reading Baby Essentials: My Top 10 – Tried & Tested
You Had Me At Meow
Time spent with cats is never wasted. Sigmund Freud I think Knight’s complaining. Ever since Kaitlyn came along, attention has shifted to her, and Knight seemed content at first to be left alone. When Kaitlyn cried as a baby, Knight just looked on with curiosity, and nothing more. When she started crawling around the house,… Continue reading You Had Me At Meow
Ok, I’ve Been Lying…
Life is NOT perfect. Everything is NOT hunky-dory. Social media has this way of making everyone share only the best moments, the pretty faces, the perfect situations. How about keeping it real? Who wakes up looking like they just stepped out from a salon? Or those beautiful cupcakes baked with kids — what about the… Continue reading Ok, I’ve Been Lying…
Problems & Preschool
It’s been a while since I’ve written, and it’s all because I’ve been so ti(r)ed up! Sharing just a summary of it here... believe me, a lot more happened. So I was saying I would share more on why I shipped Kaitlyn off to preschool at the tender age of 21 months. With Joshua, I… Continue reading Problems & Preschool
