Huat ah!

I'm the 55th lucky draw prize winner!

A hairy experience

As I've documented many times before, Kate is a regular at the coffeeshop. She charms and befriends the usual-goers who are typically the elders who live in the estate, as well as the shop-keepers. We have provision shops, electrical shops, hairdressers, coffeeshop helpers, coffeeshop regulars, clothes shops… you get the idea.

Yesterday morning, Kate headed downstairs for her typical breakfast session with the in-laws. When she came up an hour later, her hair was cut.

Now.

Before I start raging, I want to share how sensitive I am about Kate’s hair. There’s a Chinese tradition where kids get their head shaven when they turn 1 month old. It’s said that their birth hair should be shaven off so that they can grow a new head of (better) hair. I was rather hesistant to following this tradition because 1/ I always worried that Kate would be rather bald because I was. So when she was born with a rather full-head of hair, I was delighted! So why will I want to shave it all off when it was my fear to begin with?! 2/ I don’t know the deal about this saying so I was not very keen to adhere to something that I’m clueless about (you know how these things can be…)

While I was not very keen to shave her head, the husband felt that it’d benefit her; so on no particular day, the husband decided to shave her head when we walked by a hairdresser for kids. I was teary and felt very reluctant to do so but I didn’t disagree nor fight the husband. I just sat aside and wept (yes, I did!). When the deed was done, Kate looked exceptionally vulnerable with her scalp fully exposed and all I can say is, I never felt so ‘sayang’ about anything in my life. *sigh

After a whole year, (yes it took that long!) Kate’s hair finally nearly looks normal and it was only last month that the husband trimmed her bangs. We’d long decided that we will not touch her hair again! To let it grow out, so it was only a tiny trim. On several occasions, the husband has even commented that Kate’s hair is very fine and we always wondered if perhaps, the shave was OTT.

Ok, back to yesterday morning. When Kate came up from her seemingly innocuous breakfast session only to have hair hair lopped off. By at least an inch!

I was furious.

The MIL recounted that the hairdresser had lamented that Kate’s hair needed a trim and “a trim will make it grow out faster” according to one of those old wives’ tale and (oh I am mad) she brought Kate into the salon and cut her hair.

I am furious! (just recapping this is making my blood boil)

I cannot believe the nerve of this lady. I’ve never met her before, and while I appreciate her doting on Kate (she’s helped Kate to tie and pin her hair up before) and her dishing out her ‘wisely wisdom on hair’ and while I believe that she probably truly believes in what she says (this BS about trimming for her hair to grow more/better/longer) since she is the professional hairdresser, I am not happy that she cut my daughter’s hair without my consent.

!!!

How will she like it if I cut her hair off simply because I think it is “good” for her? This is my daughter for goodness’ sake. How dare she!

While Kate looks cute with her neater hair, I still grudge that some people are just too busybody for anyone else’s good. GGRRR.

This is one of those things where I have no idea how to react; I could only express my displeasure to the MIL but it isn’t as if I could undo the haircut. And we’re just fortunate that Kate looks fine. Angry!!

These shoes were made for walking

Kate's developed this thing for placing her feet into adult shoes. Whether it's heels, slippers, or shoes, she'll just hold onto the chair for support and put her tiny feet into the shoes for fun.

We have to keep an eye out for her in case she trips over in her attempts, but just for kick's (pun intended!), here's the little one in big shoes.

Look at me, Mom!

Life is good

The husband had an epiphany two days ago and he shared it with me yesterday. He'd bumped into a friend and the friend had gotten married, and is working very hard now to prep for his life ahead - putting in long hours to pay for the new car, his new house and to support his new wife. While his friend is better off in terms of material beings, the husband realised that without the 'new' material things that his friend has, he is happy. I cannot agree more - I've told the husband this before, that my life has improved tremendously in the past few years, to be precise, ever since we got together. I think a lot of it had to do with me becoming more secure and confident, and the rewards that I've reaped beinga stable part of a twosome from a stable r'ship, to being a half of Mr-&-Mrs, to being a parent - well, these are things that you cannot learn to be without going through it yourself. With these experience that we've thrown into our lives, we are definitely better off. Also, the husband and I are still much in love now & that is for sure a great thing! When he told me of his thoughts, I couldn't stop beaming because I know that we're both on the same page, we are content. To want more and to aspire towards that is a motivation, but it does not mean that we are not happy with what we have currently. That, is the true secret to happiness - contentment.

With that, I'll like to do a quick recap of the times the husband and I have had, to remember the superb quality of life that we've enjoyed, the good & better times of our travels & fun through the years. We've had plenty to smile about and I'm sure we'll have more to look forward to!

Bangkok 2005. Our first travel together. It was 'Songkran' and we were unprepared for it, which probably made it even more fun. I call this our 'war faces'.

New York City, 2005. Our first long-haul trip together. We spent time in Washington DC before a week in NYC shopping to our hearts' content. Good memories...

San Francisco, Golden Gate Bridge 2005. After NYC, we did an inter-state flight to San Francisco. The weather was chillingly comfortable after scorching hot NYC.

London, Big Ben 2006. Our second long-haul holiday. We did an 'amazing race' through Europe, backpacking through Italy, Venice, Switzerland, France, Holland, Belgium... it was a great experience and best of all, we celebrated the occasion with a monumental global event...

The World Cup! Germany, Olympia Stadium 2006. We'd planned our backpacking trip according to the World Cup playing schedule and it was a memorable holiday, to say the least.

Hong Kong, 2007. A first holiday together with my best friend & her boyfriend. It was a good one where we stayed in the suburbs, like the locals, and the best-friendship between us two girls rubbed off the two men who caught on like fire.

Tioman 2007. My virgin diving trip, and definitely the most memorable diving trip any girl can have. My man orchestrated an underwater-diving proposal just for me. Till today, many people who see/hear of this story continue gushing how terribly romantic it is. Ahh, I'm a lucky girl!

Genting Highland, 2008. A roadtrip we did with friends, we had so much fun & beer it was beyond madness. We also did a stopover in Malacca.

Koh Samui, 2008. A mini-honeymoon after our wedding, the husband and I celebrated it at Koh Samui with nothing but sun, sand, beer, sea and each other for a whole week.

Hokkaido 2008. After we sorted out work and our schedules, we finally hit Japan for our proper Honeymoon in December. It was 10 days of great, cold weather, walking around, great scenery and awesome food.

Hokkaido, 2008. This picture was us at our greediest. Between us both, we had this huge pot of steamboat with plenty of veg & seafood. We also tried the freshest, yummiest crab, scallops, sashimi... it was probably the best Jap hotpot I have ever eaten!

Langkawi, 2009. Babymoon when I was 4 months pregnant. It was 4 days of leisure, swimming, books, great company and love.

Phuket 2010. 4 months after we became parents, we organised a trip with our friends. It coincided with the husband turning 30. It was our first trip away from Kate and we missed her, but we also reveled in being free & being able to do what we wanted without any worries (read: we could be as silly as could be!)

Perth, 2010. We brought Kate on her first holiday, which was also our first holiday as a family together. She was 6-months old.

This was the reason why we went for the holiday - to celebrate the sister's graduation. Here, we take a family shot at the University of Western Australia's grounds (the famous clock tower) and the husband and I said "wonder when the day will come when she'll graduate?!"

The holiday coincided with our wedding anniversary (March 2010) and here's a family shot of us at an Italian restaurant celebrating it with loved ones and great food.

We've had a great life together dear husband. Life is good!

It's the weekend!

:P

Love bite

At the beginning, Kate relied heavily on me as a human pacifier when I was still breast-feeding her, and could only sleep with me by her side. When she was about 10-months-old and close to a year where I wanted to wean her off (at age of 1 year), the husband and I succeeded in substituting me with the pacifier. We've tried and kinda been successful in awarding her the pacifier only at sleep-times, but we notice that she's rather reliant on it (not desired).

3 nights ago, I stumbled upon an opportunity where Kate fell asleep without her pacifier. I could not locate Kate's pacifier (we had 3!) and in desperation (it was getting late and she was tired & cranky), without the pacifier, I switched off the lights and laid on the bed with her. It was exactly how her bedtime routine is daily, except that she does not have the pacifier to suckle on. When she cried, I sang songs and patted her. I allowed her to toss & turn wherever she wanted and after a while, she went to sleep. I was amazed!

This taught me that she can indeed sleep without the pacifier so again and again, the husband and I put her to sleep without it. Her reaction is funny. It's as if she suddenly remembers that she wants to suckle on something (maybe it's her teething?!) & she will chew everything in sight - me, bolster, pillow... and on that first night of this unexpected experiment, I got a souvenir from Kate!

Love bite from Kate on my arm

It happened so quickly I didn't have time to react. Besides being very 'itchy mouth", Kate also tosses and turns and drifts off to sleep when she tires.

It seems that she's growing older and we've had 3 successful nights of her going to sleep without the pacifier. I accept the souvenir with grace, it's a small price to pay for giving up a bad habit. Yay yay yay!

My favourite sisters meet Kate

Last December, the friend came back from Boston. Now, this friend is very special because she's the most mature girl I know. Like, seriously. We've had good times and better times when we were working together, and some random tidbits about her/us:

1/ we both like to exercise and stay healthy
2/ we are so much happier in our lives now than before (aah, personal growth is great ain't it)
3/ we are both abit siao (she more than me -hah!) and most importantly,
4/ despite us not being colleagues ever since she left to pursue the real experience of life with her loved one, we have kept in touch.

So finally meeting up in person was nice, and made even sweeter that I got to present proudly, my precious daughter.

My ladies

Smiles all around for happy people

So happy that we caught up babe, stay happy and well *hugs

Sneak preview

I'm all for traditions now that I have a child. I wish for her to enjoy the festivities, to bask in the fun, praises & excitement that comes along with celebrations. Chinese New Year is the largest fanfare that we Chinese enjoy and I remember how excited I was whenever it rolled along because (1) I got to buy new clothes & (2) the angbaos! Of course, the yummy food and getting together with cousins to play were awesome too.

As I got older, it got more and more routine and well, sometimes boring. I still enjoyed the food and the shopping and the angbaos, but the atmosphere seemed to dilute over the years.

I've mentioned this before, and I'll say it again - that I begin to enjoy festivities more with Kate's company; as I introduce traditions to her, I get re-ignited with excitement as I see things from a fresh perspective. I like!

Gloriously festive (I only bought 1)

Kate's special daycare

After much ado, the husband and I are very fortunate that we are able to engage help from family to babysit Kate for this week. We’ve had to make some adjustments to shuttle Kate over, but it’s the perfect solution for us and we’re very grateful that we have help.

On the whole, Kate enjoyed herself thoroughly – what’s not to enjoy when she has company of other kiddos throughout the day?

Life's a breeze when you're zooming along with your little aunt

When I saw her at dinner, she called me “Mama” and proceeded to run around the house, totally at ease. It warms my heart to know that she’s happy. I was also pleasantly surprised to see her trying to feed herself!

Look Ma! mum-mum...

The husband and I agree that the change in environment may be refreshing for her, and I sure hope she picks up skills and grow more independent. I cannot repeat enough how relieved and happy I am that we managed to find this interim daycare solution. Yay to family!

Kate's day

We’re looking at much changes in life, especially with Kate growing up so quickly, here’s a jot so we’ll remember how her schedule is today at 16months old.

Between 7 to 8am: Kate wakes up & eats cereal for breakfast.

Before 8am: I leave for work, smothering her in hugs and kisses. I also always ‘nag’ her to “be a good girl” and “I’ll see you tonight”. I also request for a smile so that I leave the house happily. Depending on her mood, she’ll whine to follow me or wave goodbye happily.

9.30am: The FIL & MIL bring Kate to the coffeeshop for their breakfast. They’ll usually spend an hour socializing with friends in the neighbourhood, let Kate ride on kiddy-rides and run amok at the playground.

11am: Kate takes her shower and plays with the MIL. Some days, she takes a nap.

12pm/ when she awakens: Kate has her lunch.

12.20pm: Kate continues to play. At this age, she is very energetic and mobile, climbing everywhere, walking everywhere, touching everything and anything. Rather a handful.

By 3pm: Kate has an afternoon nap & her milk.

5pm: Kate wakes up from her nap. On some days, the husband will be home after work and they get to bond.

By 8pm: I arrive home and have dinner & shower. If it’s not too late, I’ll bring Kate down for a quick walk to the supermarket/void deck.

9.30pm: Everyone’s in their pyjamas and in the cool, air-conditioned room. I read to Kate.

9.45pm-10pm: We give Kate her last feed of the day. She’ll suck on her pacifier and roll around the bed before falling asleep.

It sucked

After my whole ladida happiness entry last Friday evening about how the weekend had awesomely begun, it kinda spiralled to nowhere after that.

Of course, there were the good bits where the husband and I got to sleep in, we got much washing done in lieu of Chinese New Year...

But I'm mostly sore that we didn't get to hit the walls nor the treks for some adrenaline.

Not to mention how the husband and I had major adult tasks to think about and deal with.

Sigh.

Dear Kate

Dear Kate,

Sometimes life throws little surprises at you and you have to learn to deal with it. I know you're too young to understand what's truly going on, but I'm sure that you'll realise that things are different in your life. From tomorrow, we have to adjust your daycare arrangements and I think it's the best solution we have at this very moment, at such short notice. We are very fortunate that we have this option at all and I'm thankful.

However, my heart pains at the changes that everyone has to endure and adjust to, it's not easy and we'll just have to try our best to go with it.

Remember, whatever it is, we are trying our best to give you the best.

Sometimes, challenges are a way of making us re-look at our lives, so I'm trying to stay positive and keeping my fingers crossed that everything will work out well.

Love, Mommy

The weekend begins

I really ought to go shower & sleep because I've been up since 6.40am today *yawns

But our weekend has already begun and I wanted to just say that we've already done pretty much in one night.

1. Got Kate a new dress for CNY - not the most ideal (the one we unanimously preferred had no size) but pretty nice nonetheless

2. Had our traditional weekly dinner - the husband and I were famished and ordered much food which was speedily delivered all at once & scarily, as speedily devoured

3. Shopping - besides Kate's dress, I got a pair of shoes I eyed, Mom a white blouse she'd wanted & jeans for my sibling-in-laws as they'd requested. Thanks too to the husband for his t-support

Just before I go, I wanted to also share how pleasant it is to find out what the husband and Kate got up to when I was at work. Just by going through his iphone pic album:

They went to the playground! In her push-cycle

Slothy slidey baby

And so the weekend has begun *yay

Mid-day treat

MMS from the husband:

My sleeping beauty

Before 9am

I was chugging along to work this morning via bus… it’s my second morning of leaving the house 20mins earlier than before, in a bid to reach work punctually amidst the horrendous & erratic highway traffic. By my 50th minute into my journey, I was safely in time for work; terribly sleepy & cold (can’t trust these air-conditioning – it’s either too stuffy or too cold!); and missing the husband and Kate terribly.

While the husband is holding fort at home in the absence of the MIL, I’m imagining all the fun times and bonding he and Kate are going through. It sucks to have spanners thrown in the works after we’ve had such a good run of reliable, familiar and great support in the childcare department. We haven’t found a solution as yet, but we have to and this icky bother is currently seated a little too comfortably at this wedge at the end of my brain. Sigh.

So anyway, I texted the husband to check on how they’re doing and this came along:

“She wants to eat biscuits but Papa says NO”

Love her pining face, so cute & poor thing all at once (though this is not the most ke lian one she can pull). Amidst all my harried thoughts, I texted the husband “no chance of me being a stay-home mom to look after Kate?”

His curt & swift response “Husband says NO”

My equally swift response (while stifling my giggles) “Someone’s emotional towards his two girls this morning!”

Sometimes it's quite fun to be able to gang up on the male with the girl to tease exasperation (for fun only la, only because we love you! :P)

Now. To get on with the day and totally looking forward to being with them two!

Love you my husband & daughter

Dealing with it

The MIL is unwell.

While she's recuperating, the husband and I need to quickly work out childcare arrangements.

The husband has been taking care of Kate pretty much by himself the whole of yesterday and today (the day is still on-going); and he's expressed "wah it's not easy".

Some thoughts:

• I hope the MIL recovers - please get well soon Ma.
• I'm happy that Kate's father is wholly capable of looking after her all by himself. *proud
• I'm thankful that I have an understanding husband who can hold the fort when I'm occupied with work.

Now, to work something feasible out...

Belated Christmas presents

So it took my girlfriends and I a whole month later to meet up. Everyone was busy and out of town etc, but as they say, better late than never!

Everyone loves receiving presents, and at 16months old, Kate totally gets it too!

I kept her presents unopened to allow her to do so herself and I wasn’t around when she did it, but the husband was; and he shared with me how delightful Kate’s responses were.

The first present she received was a set of Care Bear pyjamas from Aunty Hee. When she tore the wrapper apart, she picked up the pyjamas and said “nice nice” and put it to her body, as if to try it on.

The second present she opened was a toy car. When she tore the wrapper apart, she went “waaa”!

Gosh, how adorable and appropriate, her responses! I so wish I was around to witness it!

I’m always warmed to know that everyone loves my little girl. *beams proudly

Dear Kate

Dear Kate

I was looking at you while you were sleeping last night and you looked soo loong! I love your angelic face, how your little mouth is slightly apart and how you always seem to find a way to sleep with your legs in the most unglam fashion – it’s either crossed or placed high on a pillow/bolster.

You have phlegm at the moment and sleep rather noisily every time you inhale & exhale. I hope that it’ll clear up soon so that you’ll sleep better. Your health has been unsteady in the past month, you had bouts of colds, coughs & phlegm, and your temperature fluctuated. You also had reactions post your MMR vaccination. I hope that these mild bouts of illnesses are indeed strengthening your system to prepare you to be a stronger, healthier girl.


We have done rather much in the past month, with us celebrating Christmas, ushering in the New Year and Daddy’s 31st birthday!
This Christmas, you received a lot of presents (same as last year). What was different was that you knew how to tear the presents apart on your own this year! It’s such fun to watch you tear things apart; and see you respond so appropriately with “WAAAH” to toys that you fancy!

We ushered in 2011 in a rather quiet manner, but what was important was that Papa, you and I were together. Our latest celebration was Papa’s birthday a week ago. You joined us in an adult dinner and I have to say you were a rather good girl. You ate most of the huge loaf of bread that came over dinner & seemed to enjoy that a lot more than your home-cooked porridge!

We also went to the zoo & you definitely enjoyed it; compared to the first time we brought you when you were much younger. You impressed me with how you were able to recognize familiar animals, and how you knew what the animals were doing – sleeping, eating, swinging, swimming… I could have a conversation with you about the zoo visit and I’m terribly pleased that you’re absorbing much things that we expose you to.

You had your second haircut in your life – the first being when your head was shaven when you were two month’s old; this time Papa trimmed your bangs as it was getting into your eyes. The rest of your hair is growing longer, and it is very fine.

Your weight increase was quite steady and you grew visibly taller. But your largest development was behavioural – your vocabulary has expanded, your level of understanding has increased and you pick up things quicker than ever. You mimic words that we say, you obey (sometimes) and understand everything that we tell you, and you are developing quite a bit of a naughty streak! Papa and I have sent you to the naughty corner on many occasions each time you do something out of line – such as screaming unnecessarily, behaving badly despite us warning you not to do and the likes. I accept that being naughty is part & parcel of being a child, you are experimenting with boundaries and exploring life – so it‘s up to Papa and I to remain firm and discipline you to instill right and wrong in you.

Overall, you are a lovely child – always ready to please and generally obedient. You smile, wave and charm people mostly, always friendly and delight people with your antics. You can “sing”, you can dance and I know that you will grow up to love music – you have already displayed pleasure in watching musicals (Barney is a current favourite) and I wish that music will be a good influence in your life. I’ll love to teach you how to play the piano.

I cannot believe how fast time has flown by and how much you have grown! I love how we are openly affectionate; always ready to give and receive hugs and kisses with you. I wish for your life to be always full of love and happiness. It never fails to make me smile every time you call me “Mama”.

Happy 16 months my precious.

Love always, Mama

Good weekends are made of these

Saturday:

• Lazy sleep-in thanks to the MIL taking care of Kate
• Home-cooked noodles (brunch) by the husband
• Home-cooked lunch by my mom (yummy curry!)
• Rock-climbing session with the husband & friends (woe to bad weather, resulting in us climbing less, but great nonetheless!)
• Dinner & hang-out with the husband, friends & their lovely children

Sunday:

• Run at MacRitchie with the husband and friends (lovely weather!)
• Yummy brunch - great reward post-run
• Hang-out with the best friend together with Kate playing with her nieces/nephews
• Alone-time - did my hair & window shopped
• Grocery shopping with the husband & daughter
• Family dinner

The husband just groaned that it's the end of Sunday & that he's tired; but I am stoked that our weekend was so fruitful! I'm especially proud that I'm getting the hang of rock-climbing & improving (*terribly pleased that the husband praised me!); that I've continued to do my twice-weekly runs for a whole month & of course, time spent with loved ones are always rewarding.

Here's to a great week ahead!

Do not disturb

That's what Kate's face says; do not disturb, Mom! Love how serious and deep in concentration she looks.

I notice that she fiddles with her fingers a lot (look at her right hand) - she must take after me in this aspect. I'm terribly twitchy and will fidget; tapping my fingers to a tune in my head/ playing with my fingers for no reason!

Twinkle Twinkle

When I returned home from work yesterday, I was pleasantly surprised by the husband’s discovery of the day. Kate can “sing”! He did a live demonstration and started singing twinkle twinkle. My little girl ended off each word at the end of every sentence!

Twinkle twinkle little star
How I wonder what you are
Up above the world so high
Like a diamond in the sky
Twinkle twinkle little star
How I wonder what you are

I was so happy! My clever little one *beams proudly

Dye-dye

Kate has an issue with pronouncing the letter “B”.

It’s not that she cannot say it; if we ask her to say “bar” (as in Bar-ney), she can mimic us perfectly. But once we place the words together BAR-NEY, she reverts to how she’s been saying it forever – “nar-nee”.

Bye bye = dye dye

Baby = deedee

I know her skills are still in-training but the husband and I are still attempting to correct her so that she’ll speak properly. What is amazing and terribly cute is how she not only mimics the sounds we make (to her best capability), but our intonation too!

So if we thrill “bayyy (fa) beeee (mi)”, she’ll say “dee (fa) dee (mi)”! It’s sooo cute!

Happy birthday on 1.1.11

Thank you for being an awesome father, husband and friend.

Hope you enjoyed dinner - personalised menu & all!

Happy birthday my dear husband!

Always my baby

While commuting home yesterday on the train, I saw a mother carrying her sleeping daughter. The girl is probably about 5 years old & was rather tall. The mother was having a rather difficult time carrying the child and despite changing the carrying position several times, the girl didn’t wake up – must have been deep slumber! After a few stops (I was ready to ask for a seat for her already!) she got a seat and I was watching how the mother adjusted the sleeping position of the child, lovingly cradling her in her arms.

I was touched by what I saw.

It struck me then that a mother’s love knows no bounds; no matter how tired my arms may be, no matter how non-conducive the environment may be, I will still shelter and protect my child. And no matter how old she gets, she’ll never be too heavy for me to carry, to hold, to hug.

The first of more to come

Turning 31 - that's what the husband is tomorrow.

We've already made plans for the actual day, but the first makan celebration we had was yesterday afternoon. After much thought, the husband finally decided on a lunch venue.

Family shot

Us

My favourite shot of the two loves of my life

I think everyone had a jolly time eating, the food was good, the company was great and it was topped up with two treats – complimentary bottle of wine & a birthday cake!

Happy birthday my dear husband, as I said, this is only the first of more fun & celebrations to come!

"doo"

Yup, that's where we went over the weekend. In Kate's words, the "doo" (zoo).

The first time we brought her there, she was only a baby and we weren't sure if she really absorbed that much. This time round, she could walk on her own, watch the live shows and she definitely had fun & saw much - my girl is so clever & I'm so proud of her!

We saw tigers,monkeys, birds, fishes, turtles, elephants, chimpanzees, orang utans, ponies, goats.. so many! It was even more fun because we went with friends with other children and it was soo nice.

Along the way, we pointed out many animals to Kate which she could recognise, and she could answer when we asked her what they were doing. So now, she knows that the tigers were sleeping, the monkeys were eating & swinging, the fishes & turtles were swimming, the elephants were swinging their trunks and sprayed water through them too! My heart burst with pride and amazement when she could relate to me what she saw, and I'm very happy at how developed she is!

The highlight for her has got to be the children's play area. The moment she eyed the water-area, she lunged ahead (while we were carrying her) & the moment we took off her shoes, she dashed into the water with no hesitation! Immediately, I told the husband "this is defintely her zone!" It was so delightful watching her playing in the waters & having fun. It was so cute!

Happy Kate

We left after water-play as it was already late afternoon, and Kate was due for her nap. I think she also had enough after a whole half-day at the zoo. I'm definitely bringing her back to the zoo again!

Us at the Singapore Zoo
