前些日子在网络上遇见二姐在线上，于是我们便闲聊了起来。
她问我对新的一年有什么新的展望？顿时之间，这问题似乎问倒我了。以往都喜欢在岁末写年录和新年展望的我，今年好象没有什么去想过这问题。是因为自己的脑袋不再思考了，还是因为自己已经在舒适的区域里麻木生活惯了，把一切理所当然化了？
其实不是自己没有展望。当二姐列出她认为是我新的一年的展望时，我都对她所列出的一一赞同。
首先，肯定是小宝贝勇杰的出世。我等了勇杰有一段日子了。可说是有一年之久吧！打从我上一次的怀孕失败后（去年11月的事），我和东威便渴慕快快再度怀孕。终于，上帝怜悯我们，让我在今年7月受孕，而且怀的是男孩。虽然咏恩和家翁家婆比较喜欢女孩，但是东威、我和许多的朋友都希望这一胎会是男孩。东威的原因是他觉得女孩到了一个阶段，他和孩子在身体接触上（如拥抱）会有一些限制（东威是一个很东方传统思想的人，他觉得男女应保持一些距离。。当然除了与伴侣之外。。。）我则希望勇齐会有一个玩伴（咏恩已经有3个表姐妹为伴了）。况且，东威和其他亲戚朋友的期望（希望孩子是男孩）也会多多少少影响我的期望。至于其他人的原因，那可要问他们了！！！ 嘻嘻嘻嘻！！！
我切切期待三月底的到来。其实来到这阶段，我想三个月并不难熬。再过几天，咏恩和勇齐就上学了。这是勇齐第一年上学。因此，我感到很兴奋。（对了，我希望两个孩子，尤其是勇齐，的身体会健康，抵抗力会很强）。我相信他会很喜欢学习。:)
他们上学，也就是说，我早上会有三个小时的空挡时间。我可以休息或用来完成还没完成的DVD学习。
开学的一个多月后就是华人新年了。这是我一直以来最喜欢的节日。今年很特别。因为是我第一次挺着个大肚子去拜年。我已经买好了过年的衣服。我迫不及待地想穿上它们游街去！当然，我也没有忘记为老公、孩子们添购新衣物的乐趣。其实自从我有了孩子之后，购买孩子们的物品似乎比购买自己的东西来得有趣！
过了华人新年，我就要为准备勇杰的衣物和床铺忙碌了。这真是叫我感到无比的兴奋！接着，就是好好地休息，养精畜锐地倒数日子！:)
我的预产期是在三月28日。就是学校term holiday 之后的一个星期。若是这一胎和以往两胎一样足月才生(满40周），我可能会面对自己一个人去医院的情景。我为此事祷告，求神让我在最好的时间分娩。好的时间的意思是，在勇杰足月，东威在我身边，咏恩、勇齐也有人帮我照料的情况下。我想不出有如此好的时间。但神的智慧高过我的智慧。我拭目以待他给我最好的时间。
我希望勇杰是个健康、快乐、乖巧且有智慧的好孩子。求神给我智慧来爱护他、教育他！
生产后，我希望自己能够坚持到底地给勇杰哺乳两年。我希望自己有足够的奶水，勇杰也会和我合作，晚上可以睡彻夜，好让我有足够的原因坚持到底（上一次我就是因为勇齐晚上每一、两个钟头就起来吮吸而决定在他10个月大时给他戒奶）！
另外，我希望自己在坐月子期间能好好地休息。我现在其实就已经很思念坐月子时吃的食物了。。。Yum Yum!!
说到吃，也让我想起我的另外一个期望。我希望生产完后可以瘦身，达到我刚结婚时的身材。。。嘻嘻嘻！！！我可是对这梦想充满憧憬喔！:)
最后，另一样让我兴奋的事是咏恩明年就要报读小学了。我希望她会顺利地进入工商小学。这学校是打从我搬到现在住的地方后就锁定的目标。
哈哈哈！我想这一些期望已经够我“忙”了吧！或许有人会纳闷为什么我没有提到关于自己的灵命或服事之类的期望。。。哈哈哈。。。孩子是上帝给的产业。我今年把焦点放在孩子和家庭身上，也就是将焦点放在服事上。我的孩子和家庭对我明年来说就是我服事的岗位。我会继续在咏恩的灵命方面打好基础，在勇齐的意识上让他认识上帝，在勇杰的属灵层面上迫切祷告。这就是我明年的服事。至于自己的灵命，我会继续在读经祷告的习惯上下更多苦功。。。求主耶稣与我同在，帮助我。愿我的展望是主所喜悦并愿意成全的。 Amen! :)
我的骄傲！

宝贝的名字出炉了！
前阵子在Facebook里头表意希望朋友们可以帮忙提议小宝贝的名字。。。实在非常感谢许多愿意和我们一起绞尽脑汁的亲戚好友们。你们实在给了我们许多很好很好的名字。有些是很酷的名字，有些则带有你们打从心里的祝福。
当中很酷的名字有二姐提议的“勇翮 (he2)”其意思是勇敢的翅膀。 还有东威的妹妹提出的“勇睿(rui4)”意思是勇敢又有智慧。说实在， 我真的很喜欢这两个名字。无论意思或文字都很特别，非常有“墨水”！可见二姐和我小姑（东威的妹妹就是我的小姑）的语文程度是“dun play play”的！！！
另外也有我的“媳妇”昌冰 （是的，她整天对我的勇齐虎视眈眈，几乎整个教会都听过她喊勇齐“相公”。所以我不是她的家婆是什么？kekeke...）好意的祝福，提议小宝贝的名字叫“永康”，因她说勇齐的身体好象不是很好（尤其是前两年），一直要看医生。她希望小宝贝的身体会很健康。因此便提议这名字。除了昌冰，我的阿姨，ah may，也有提议此名字。她的原因很好笑。她说《还珠格格》的五阿哥叫“永祺”(yongqi，与勇齐同音），那弟弟就和驸马一样名字，叫“永康”好了！（ehhh... Ah may 啊，驸马不叫永康，他叫尔康啦！！！）
另外，表妹慧敏也提供了“勇翔”，勇敢飞翔之含义。还有从前的上司提议的勇俊、勇乐。。。喜欢音乐的堂妹甚至提议“永乐”（yue4）等等等。。。
有了那么多超棒的名字，再加上之前我自己日想夜思的一些名字，我“呈上”了一份名单给我的生意伙伴“大股东”，也就是孩子的爸（不是吗？我们俩虽都各占50％的股份，我的职责是“酝酿”产品，他则是提供“原料”和接下来的 development investment（发展投资）。所以就运作守则来说，他扮演的角色非凡。因此，我想最关键的决定权应该来自他！
他当时一看，就非常果断地选了“勇杰”意思是勇敢又杰出。他说“杰”字比较容易写，以后小宝贝学写自己的名字时就不会那么痛苦。这一点我也真是同意。我可不想孩子因无法很好或正确地书写自己的名字而感到沮丧，甚至讨厌华文。。。况且，“勇杰”这个名字也蛮符合我对这小宝贝的期望与怀他的异象。
怀咏恩却还不知道自己已怀孕的时候，在一次的敬拜中，我告诉神我和我的孩子会一生敬拜他。因此，怀咏恩的异象是她是一个敬拜者，她要歌咏上帝的恩典。英文名字是Joen!
怀勇齐，但还不知道他的性别的时候，我在一次敬拜中看见一个年轻的壮年跳着战舞。接下来，有姐美为我祷告，说这孩子是上帝的勇士。因此勇齐的名字的意思是勇士所有特征都齐全了。英文名字为Joshua!
怀这一胎，我觉得这孩子会有大卫王的特征。大卫王，尽管自己不是什么“大”人物，但是当有人（哥利亚）亵渎上帝的名字的时候，他却勇敢且有信心地站出来阻止，且不靠兵器也不靠盔甲，单靠主耶和华的同在与力量，用简单的石头和吊索，便把比他高大几倍的敌人给打败了。
因此，勇杰，既勇敢又杰出，正合乎这异象。英文名字，我把他取为Joel！
再一次地感谢大家愿意为小宝贝的名字出一份力。希望大家会喜欢“勇杰”这个名字。在此祝福大家新年快乐！:)

Bintan family trip
still remember me and my family went for genting and cameron highland last june... the experience was not very good as we were following tour package and we need to rush according to their itinarary...
This time we went Bintan and we decided not to go thru tour agent. we did booking of resort and ferry ticket ourselves. the whole thing was free and easy...
as we booked our own accomodation, we were able to state our preference... i requested for a ground level, garden facing, quiet and non smoking room. fine enough, our room was so marvellous! it turned out to be our dream room... staying in it alone was relaxing enough!!! the children simply enjoyed blowing bubbles at the balcony.. too bad, if we had brought a ball and a kite, everything would be so perfect!!!!
due to high budget put aside by boss for this trip, our spending power this time was higher... we ate good food in good atmosphered restaurant. thou it was not at the high end restaurant, i was happy enough with my boss's generosity! imagine spending $92 on a buffet dinner, $52 on a lunch and $65 on another alacarte dinner... wow!!!
We were lucky that there was a fireworks during our first night stay... the kids were so excited as the show was very near to our room... i was not as fortunate to be able to catch the show cuz i was busy making use of the bathtub available... kekeke...
I think the best part of the trip was we were very near to the beach.. and there were fish in the water!!!! Boss and maid (my hubby and i la) had great time catching fish by the sea water... while yongen explored along the beach and yongqi busy digging hole in the sand... all of us were dirty at the end of the beach visit.. but we wouldnt care much since our room was so near and it was a resort room!!! (kekeke... sorry la... if it was our own house then we need to worry how to keep the area clean ...
the kids tried something that they had never done before... they played bungy bounce!!! and they really enjoyed so much!!! yongqi kept saying 'bungy is fun'...
for me, there was a moment which i was really touched... there was a live band at the lobby in the evening... the songs that they presented were 90s songs... and they really reminded me of my young days... and for that moment i suddenly miss my peers and friends... thoughts of how i wished i am still single and free, and was with them, lazing at the lobby sofa enjoying the breeze and the band.... then suddenly, i wort of waken from the dream... telling myself i have no regret as i have a wonderful hubby and children.... i almost teared hugging my yongen at that moment...
overall, i really love the trip!!! i really thank my dear boss for initiating this breakaway. Thank you my dear! MUAK!

shoo shoo gestational diebetes...
yoz, its been some times since i last blog.... my pregnancy is in my 26th weeks, which is 6 and half months le :). lil fellow is active. he has started to show his kicks and boxes... i enjoy seeing my tummy jerking side to side and lumps out of tummy... i really enjoy thou maybe little discomfort...
yesterday i went to my gynae for a glucose tolerant test. i was supposed to fast overnight then take blood then drink a very sweet syrup and test blood again 2 hours later... result is not good! my reading showed 11. which it is supposed to be below 7 lor.... thus my gynae is very concerned. she said that very high chance that i need to do insulin injection if the glucose level is this high. i am given 3 weeks to try out diet control to see if my glucose can be controlled.. if no, i need to inject myself with insulin.. yak!!!
how to test blood? i am asked to buy a glucometer, poke myself 6 times a day, twice a week, to check my level ad keep record of what my reading and what i eat... thru this, i realise that i am a 'live to eat' person.. feeling so miserable with this cant eat that cant eat kinda situation... haiz!!! Lord, please help me to get the glucose under control... i dun wan to do the insulin injection... please....
i was in the verge of having gestational diebetes too when i carried yongen and yongqi.. thus they were big babies... in fact due to this problem, my kids are not supposed to take too sweet stuff cuz their risk of having diabetes are higher than normal people... my gynae told me that my this lil fellow (in my tummy) will be a big fellow... his size now is 1kg and equivalent to 27th week pregnancy baby!!! she said he will sure hit 4kg and hopefully not too much beyond.. else i may need c-section!!!! Lord, help me to able to deliver this lil fellow naturally and may the delivery be smooth and good. Please protect him. Let him be a healthy and wise child. Thank you Lord, in Jesus name i pray, Amen!
