2 more days at Bishan

This morning, Salvation army's coming to view some furnitures to be donated. We're saying goodbye to our dining table, tv, tv console, our very comfy bed, though it gave us many bruises and knocks on the knees, our study table and shelves, all for 7 yrs!

I'll be biding goodbye to my childhood in one sense, I grew up in bishan since i was 12 when we moved from TPY to Bishan st 11, then to st 23 for the past 7 yrs. I have developed some sentimental values to this place - Bishan, and the beautiful park. I believe I would not say farewell at all, cos welove the library, and the park, we'll prob be visiting or driving through many times from sengkang.

Our house would look strangely tonight without the bed and dining table or the tv. I told Nathan that he would be having his last treat of a show this morning, cos we're expecting people to come and take it away. He looked shocked. But i've prepared him about the move every single day, that he'll be having his own room...I don't know ho much is enough.

Now, gazing at my blue cabinets, I have another surge of emotions rising up, my beloved corner of the house, where I spent a large part of my time, standing there, preparing meals, and cooking up goodies ...

And at our large bedroom, where both nathan and hannah were conceived. We are certainly going to miss this room, and this house!

A house is a house with walls on every side, but it's the people who live in it that makes it a home, the home you want it to be, filled with laughters and memories - hugs, fights, quarrels, and many loving moments too.

We thankGod for many blessed days we have had with each other, and now with our two children, and praying for more blessed days to come, as we watch our children grow up in our new seng kang flat.
