Do you know what is desperate!

Want to know how she feels and why she felt that way? Look up her blog at: http://jessalynn88.blogspot.com/

Why Did God Created Moms

Why Did God Created Moms?
"God created moms to cook most of the time and to water the chickens," says Jed, 8.

Well, Jed, either you have some strange chickens, or your mom needs more farm experience. As for the cooking, let's hope your mom's chicken casserole contains poultry that someone has fed and not just watered.

"God created moms because they could go shopping while me and my dad go hunting," says Jacob, 7.

As a guy who hates to shop, that makes perfect sense to me. And while the guys are hunting, Mom will "teach girls about makeup," says Kristin, 10.

"He also created moms for girls to tell about problems we can't tell dads. Thank you, God, for creating moms."
As Kathryn, 12, says, "It's nice to be able to talk about things. I know because I have a mom."

Listening is important, but "moms were made to have fun with their kids," says Alex, 10. "You might think your mom is old, but really inside, she is a kid just like you," adds Kristen, 9.

Yes, you might be amazed that your mom likes to have fun, but even more amazing is that moms will love you even when you're not so much fun. "Moms will love you even if you fight a lot," says Adrienne, 10. "They are probably here so they can take care of their kids. But, that's just my guess."
Good guess, says Mallory, 7: "I think moms were made to hug you. I think that God made moms to kiss you, too. I think moms were made to fix your hair."


Not only are moms good for hugs and hair, but also hassles, says Beth, 9: "God created moms because we need somebody to get onto us and say things like, 'Clean up your room now!'"

Beth, you might consider what your mom does for you. J.T., 7, believes that "God made moms to do stuff without getting mad." In fact, "Moms do most of the dirty work around the house," adds observant Andrew, 10.

All right, let's get down to basics, says Justin, 9: "God created moms to give birth to people so that the earth's population will grow."

Remember, Mom was there in the beginning. You were kicking, screaming and making a mess in your diaper. Part of Mom's job is to remind you of your humble entrance into this world, says Stephen, 10: "God made moms to embarrass you in front of your friends. Moms are made to be there for you always, and you'll always be their baby."

So why do moms put up with us? Erica, 7, has the answer: "The Lord loves me so he made a person of love and faith to tackle the job of me, and that is my mom. She loves me so much. I am her love of love."

Nick, 7, says it another way: "God made moms so they could be like God."

I am a Father! Doesn't AnyOne Care!

Do U sometimes feel like you are just a "paycheck" to your family, DAD!
I entered the house and heard the sounds of voices engaged in a friendly game of cards. My wife and kids were sprawled out on the floor of the family room, and they were oblivious to my arrival.

“Hi guys!” I yelled. There was no answer. “Hi there!” I tried again. “You can’t use that card!” I heard my daughter shriek.Then the thoughts started to come. “I’m invisible to them!” I told myself. “All the stuff I do around here, and does anybody notice it? I’m working my tail off again, and they’re in here playing!” As I went downstairs, I took along some heavy baggage with me.

Fathers go through periods when they feel “outside” of their family. They feel neglected, or they feel invisible. Or, they feel like they’re just a “paycheck” to their families. But what’s really happened is they’ve forgotten they’re not on this planet to “get” love from their family members.

Jeremy & Jessalynn & Joey doing Battle nOw!

The following 3 photo describe Jeremy b4 his SPM.



I got a shock when I came back home before Hari Raya time to see Jeremy in his new hairstyle. I was wondering if he could get to school after Hari Raya Holiday without being called in to office of the Principle. But Jeremy told me to relax as it was just for 1 week fun and he cut his hair before school resume to the next photo.


This is how Jeremy looks like while doing his SPM now. He just finished his BM, English and History. Please cover him in prayers ok. Thanks.


Next is Jessalynn. Finishing her last 2 paper this week and next Monday and she completes 1 semester.....


Her best way to concentrate...I wonder how your kids behave before major exams! I do not have Joey's photo taken b4 exam. But I was with him this last week while I was in Kota Kinabalu. For Joey, after a stressful preparation, he would suggest we go watch James Bond, which we did. That was his way of de-stressing. He told me he will de-stressed by causing himself to be fully "Distracted" by something else. So, much so that his mind actually forgets about his study stress and attracted to this something else. So, for a while, he is not even thinking of exams, studies, and after that he comes back more fresh and ready to continue. Joey finishes he exam by Nov 23. What method is that?

Borneo Highland Trip

We were in Borneo Highland next to the border of Sarawak and Kalimantan for a retreat recently. The photo was taken at 3200+ feet above sea level which we scaled. 3 of us behind the notice were standing on Kalimantan side where as the guy sitting on the fence and the other 2 standing next to the sign board are still in M'sia side.





This is surely almost like once a lifetime experienced as most Sarawakian who I talked to, have not been to this resort before. This is really a nice place for a refreshing retreat. Cool, clean, fresh air, fantastic view of a whole sea of cloud in the morning. All Green Organic food, no meat. No soft drink sold, only coffee and tea and best of all, lemon grass tea! Praise the Lord for such an opportunity to be at this glorious location.
