So tired after the Asia Conference!! But it was great. This time was very differnet from Emerge.. felt that it's not just hyped up but the message of penetrating the society and embracing the culture was spread thru out and really hit the churches of Asia .. even for us in CHC. Many a time, we heard about the Cultural Mandate.. but it became like a slogan after a while. This was indeed a great conference to let us experience visually the impact we can have to penetrate the society!! :)) WOW!!
Anyway, have been trying to blog, but just too tired...
Last Sun after the Baby dedication, we went to Orchard to experience the Christmas Lights!! It's the time of the year again! I have loved Nov and Dec since I was a child... Why? Well more than just Xmas, it's also my birthday (hee), and the weather is sooo breezy and cool! I simply love the combination!
Took some pics... Brought the kids to Borders as well.. Ja loves to go Borders.. Think he loves the "shiokness" of picking up his books and dumping into the basket saying," I'll take this, and this, and this... and that... and that..." :( (He thinks his parents own Borders!!)
Anyway, it was funny cos when he had a basket full of books, Jona (my maid) said to him...," ok Ja, for every book tat you buy, you will have to finish reading them or else no TV for you.."
Ja: oohh, Think I dun need this.. And that one is too thick.... and I dun like this.....
hee hee hee... it works!
We had an interesting conversation after Fri's Asia Conference..
Ja: Mummie, just now in children's church ah.. I saved somebody's life lei!
Me: Wow Really!! Why??
Ja: Oohh cos a boy almost fell down , then I stretched out my hand and caught him! The teacher said I am a hero leh! :)
Me: Wow! I am sooo proud of you!
Ja: Mummie, remember the other time you fell down? (I fell 2 days b4 I gave to Jewel.. think too heavy so my legs gave way:( I couldnt save you cos I was still small (erm.. it was only April this yr!).. But Daddy saved you right!:)
Ja: Think ah, I will be in charge of saving the children.. Then Daddy will save the adults instead! How about that??
Me: Sure!........
p.s. Was he speaking literally or in parables? "Save"??? (Seems like a prophesy:)))
Kids are sooo amazing!
Anyway, see Jewjew reading books in Borders.. seems as if she really reading...
