Gift from Great Grandmother

Joshua and Josiah received a gift from their Great Grandmother today. I felt that my babies are fortunate to receive a gift 3 generations down. Happy that Ah Ma's health is still good and is able to buy gifts for the babies. She purchased it during her recent holiday in China.

It is a must that I take picture of my babies together with Ah Ma as soon as they are to meet and if possible, must let Ah Ma carry them in the photoshoot. This photo will be very important for me to tell them about my Ah Ma one day as they gets older.


Ah Ma is a very strong 91 years old lady. I remember her birthdate on her NRIC is just a 1923 without the day and month. However we always celebrate her birthday around August. My last time going for a holiday with her was in 2010 when we visited her hometown in Zhao An. She shared her life story as a 16 years old girl who feed prawns in her hometown before coming to Singapore. I have yet to verify if she was once a Samsui woman during her younger days. Even till today, she still help out uncle at his Hokkien Mee stall with my mother.


I have to personally thanks Ah Ma when I next see her. Above picture was taken in Aug 14 during her last birthday celebration...
