This coming Monday is a holiday so the three of us (me and my kids), won't go to school. And because the kids will have a 3-day break, we sent them to my parents-in-law's place for the weekend.

Hubby and I are having a movie spree over pizza. It has been a long time since we didn't watch movies like this at home. Imagine watching 3 movies simultaneously. My eyes feel a bit strained. I wonder if it can cause eye wrinkles?

Speaking of which, I stumbled upon a home remedy for eye wrinkles. You can actually make your own eye wrinkle cream from a coconut oil. You just need to massage the coconut oil around your eyes before you go to sleep and voila! It would help prevent premature aging of the skin. I wonder if this would work for me because I have an oily skin. It would make my skin oily, I guess.

Anyways... we have more movies lining up. But then again, I think we won't have time to watch movies tomorrow because we're planning to go to Masjid India after church.

Yesterday was Malaysia's Merdeka Day (52nd Independence Day). So the kids' break was extended for one more day. The weather was nice. Cloudy, but not rainy... so we took the kids to Sunway Club. It has been awhile since we didn't use our club facilities.

The kids had fun in the pool. We had lunch there as well, at Pahm's Restaurant. Then I took my mom to a steam bath. Sunway Club changed it into steam sauna. Last time was dry sauna. I think I prefer steam sauna better. It doesn't really burn the skin. But of course, I liked the dry sauna as well.

I took with me a big bottle of soon-to-be-expired yoghurt. I splashed it all over my body and hair, too. So now, a day later, I still smell like yoghurt. Delicious smell though.

I have heard that saunas can burn fats as well. So I'm planning to go to the club once a week just to do a steam bath. That's of course aside from the colon cleaning I'm doing now. It would be good to burn fats from the outside. I have started taking detox tea by the way. I wanna get rid of the toxins in my body.

Mom enjoyed the sauna too. I am glad.

Here they are, relaxing after swimming.

It has been a long time since we didn't go to the kids' Sunday School in church. It's either because we're traveling or Hubby has a speaking engagement somewhere. Last Sunday was Samantha's first day in her next level class. She was promoted to a 3-year old class last month but since we're not around, yesterday was her first day in her class. She didn't want to let go of me so I decided to stay.

The teachers told me that because it's her first day, I was allowed to stay inside. The next time though, I won't be allowed to stay with her.

So I was at the back sitting there. Samantha would once in a while turn back and check whether I was still around or not. I didn't want to break her trust. I told her I would stay and I did.

At one point, one of the teachers was telling about a story of this naughty boy. He was doing a lot oa naughty things that nobody liked him anymore. But, the teacher said, there's one person that truly truly truly loves Him. So the teachers asked the students who that person was.

Other children: Jesus!!!

Samantha: looking back at me, smiling, and with a twinkle in her eyes, said softly: "Mommy."

Hehehe.

I think I need to teach her more about Jesus' Love. LOL. On the other hand, I was glad that she knows of my love for her. It truly warmed my heart.

Schenker, on the other hand, since he started counting up to 100, he would say "Mommy, I love you 100 much!" LOL.

Last night was a night I would always cherish. Schenker came to me out of nowhere, hugged me and said, Mommy, you are the best today.

I asked: Today only?

He said: No no! Everyday!

I asked: The best of what?

He said: The best mother in the whooooole world.

A priceless reward.

I sighed with contentment.

My prayer is that they could also feel the love of God, that unconditional love that whatever they do, wherever they are, they might be away from their parents, but God will always be with them. And that God loves them more than we love them.

Anyways, I need to post our pictures I took when we were at Petrosains KLCC. We had so much fun and towards the end, we took photos of ourselves at the photo booth and printed them out. They didn't have receipt printer though. But what amazed me was we did all those for free.

We also did some art works that after we did them we could e-mail them straight away. I tried. I was amazed to get their result in my email when we got back home. Will show it some other time.

The image above was taken by Schenker - my little photographer

Today, our previous house owner came with his daughter. His daughter is just slightly older than Schenker. My kids were excited to see her. They showed her around the house and watched Samantha's favorite show, Barbie As Rapunzel. I was just so amused to listen to their conversations... especially when Samantha was trying to have a conversation with her.

Anyways, they are moving in only next month. They are staying in a hotel now. They're just waiting for the cargo to arrive in Malaysia where they send their furniture and stuff from Holland. They will probably use a truck with truck accessories to move their stuff from the cargo. Not really sure how it works.

Here, in Malaysia, they use the term lorry instead of truck. So when you want to move your house stuff, you call a lorry. I think truck is an American term.

Anyways, I am glad that there is a girl next door which Samantha could be-friend. Schenker's friend, Sanjay, always come to the house and Samantha would play with them too. I am worried that she would only know the boys' stuff. Now that Alyssa is around, she can have a girl-friend too.

I'm a night owl. I think better at night. So I do my blogging at night, usually because then I can think clearly. But it's unhealthy because I have to wake up early to prepare my kids to school.

So now, my aim for this week is to sleep early, to make up for sleeping later than usual last week. Last week was really terrible. I know. I was reading a book again. And I'm the type that if I read something interesting, I wouldn't stop until I finish it.

So yes, that would be my goal. To sleep early... at least this week. I did last night. Having enough sleep can be the most natural acne treatment one can have.

Anyways, I have finished reading that book already. So I have no reason to stay up late. I hope.
