The celebration of the (mis)adventures, the mundane, and the magical moments of my family. Join us as we gypsy around the world. It gets manic sometimes but we figure we can't go wrong as long as we stay close together and embrace every moment of every day ... Relax, take it easy!

School days
Sera returned to school last Thursday and she was really looking forward to it. I mean, really. She's having a great time at school and the teacher has reported that she 'participates' and 'plays very well with the other kids'. I'm glad, really. And I even sigh with relief because I was (and till today, still vividly remember) quite a terror in school, in nursery and kindergarten to be exact. Ask my mama, she'll tell you. At such a tender age, I was unable to conform to a typical class routine, and had refused to play with the girls in the class. I gravitated to the boys in the class, not because I liked them particularly but I was simply more comfortable with them. Blame it on the fact that I only played with my uncles when I was young. Yes, I was an absolute tom-boy and remember ganging up with the boys to bully the little girls in the class. Ok, it's not such a 'ha ha' matter but it did seem funny at that time. Anyway, that is why I'm more than relieved to learn from her teacher that she is a 'joy to have in the class'. Phew!
Sera in her sailor dress, a gift from Mei and Ben. It was a hit! She's having an after-school snack of little Goldfishies
And here she's with Gaston, sitting outside our patio unperturbed by the 40-degree heat ...
