I Am Fifty One Today



Praise God I am 51 today....and it seems like yesterday I was 23 when I first married David. God is good to have brought me thus far...and I am ever thankful to Him for my life , my husband David , my children Melissa & Andrew and my family and friends.

I was born on the 2nd day of July 1960 at Wee Leong Maternity Home in Kuala Lumpur at 11.30am...and I must have brought a lot of joy to my parents as I was born after they had 6 boys...yes I was their only princess...eventhough they tried for 2 later they turned out to be boys too. So I was the real rose among 8 thorns.  My childhood was full of pampering , presents , loads of new clothes and everything else sugar and spice. I never knew what hardship was as my parents always provided even if they were struggling they never made us feel it.  My late father was working with a tin mining firm not making much and my mum eventually went on to be a kindergarten teacher and supported all of us. I lost my parents at a young age..my dad when I was 19 and my mum when I was 29....and then I was already married and had my own family.

This is the lovely lady who gave me life...my mum.


Well I better get on...otherwise I will be boring you with my life story. On my birthday morning at about 11am ...that is today... my good family took me out for dim sum ...my favourite food...Sandra joined us as well...it was great...food was good and the company was fantastic.

For dinner we went to Chilli's in Bangsar Shopping Centre and Tharishini and Anantha joined us and it was so good....just having family with me on this beautiful day. Later we went home and I cut my cake...a gift from a Muslim friend and his family.

It has been a fabulous day and all I can say is I am truly blessed to have my loving family and good friends who have journeyed with me through this 51 years. Thank you Jesus for all the beautiful people in my life...and thank you people for making my life beautiful.
