Christmas Party

Host Susanne at Living to Tell the Story describes Friday’s Fave Five as “time to take a look over our week, recall blessings great and small and pick our five favorites to share.”

So much is going on for me right now! I am holding my heart. It is leaping to my throat. Guess these faves will help calm things down a bit.

i. Afternoon tea. It was a lovely girl time out with a great friend.  We had atlantic cod and salmon at Ootoya, ticktocked to Whittard of Chelsea for moroccan mint and praline, and watched Narnia.

ii. Christmas card from the post office.  I want to share a part of what’s written inside: “I hope I will be with you rather than you open this card on your own…” I say it is okay.

iii. Technoblessing. Mama is a texting expert, but never chats online.  Yesterday that changed. “Mommy, Mommy, I am eating peanuts,”  CJ proudly spoke on cam. He swayed his glossy hair and left the bedroom to play with cousins. Then I got the surprise of the year – Mama took over the keyboard! Finally, it looks like I am getting a break from costly overseas calls.

iv. A fabulous company party. Many of us were almost unrecognizable what with all those costumes. Poon became a geisha, Tanya turned into a black debutante, Champ was Superman, Lak a Korean first lady…. The music, the food, the camaraderie were all major fun. It was only an hour ago. I am still savoring the excitement.

v. Christmas eve at Suvarnabhumi. It is 6.52 PM, December 24th Bangkok time. A friend is flying home at midnight to attend her sister’s renewal of vows ceremony on Sunday. I am headed to the airport to send her off. We are celebrating noche buena amidst the roar of aircrafts.

MERRY CHRISTMAS EVERYONE!

Mommy Moments is where Moms muse about motherhood and show off their kids. Joys, worries, disappointments, hopes, challenges and successes are shared. Chris hosts this meme every Friday at The Mommy Journey.

With the way things are going for me I know I will not be celebrating Christmas normally. This year though I got a wonderful surprise. People at home did something they rarely do and I was ecstatic! Cj did not face the camera long enough but it was okay. A boy’s got to go play I know, I know 🙂
“I am eating mani (peanut),” Cj stressed when I asked him what was he doing. He swayed his glossy hair muttering quietly ‘Mommy, Mommy…’before he went out of the bedroom to play with cousins. My mother then took over the keyboard. Blimey! my 69-year old mother finally chatting with me online? Do I really get a rest now from expensive overseas calls? I hope Cj’s computer gets a rest too from the dust or cobweb.

 

Technology does a perfect job of bringing us closer to loved ones. I appreciate it more than ever.
