2nd Birthday Prayer for Kian my son - pf 21 May 2010

My Lord,

Thank you for your gift to our family..

Two years ago YOU sent  a little baby to us

A dearest son of mine.. 
Kian Christopher Benjamin Simanjuntak.......

With his 2 eyes, 2 hands, 2 legs, 2 ears.. 

Thank You.. it's a blessed.. while maybe others have less..

You gave us a complete bundle of love & joy... my son..

And now, he's turning 2, Lord...

How Grace Thou Art..!

He's growing bigger and more adorable to all of us..

If now I can't be a full time mom for him, and my kids..

I know that You are there with them.. day and night..

I hope they would understand later..

And I keep praying for my kids.. 
especially Kian.. on his bday..

THANK YOU LORD....

AMEN

Miss your saying: 'aku Kian akep' (I'm the handsome Kian), 
everytime I asked what's ur name :))

Miss your laugh & cry after playing with ur bro sist.... 
and ended with blaming ur bro or sist..

Miss u much, my cutey luvely-smeley babey

Mom loves you so much u ever think my dear...

Happy 2nd birthay, 21st May 2010

A hundred hearts would be too few
To carry all my love for you.

 -------------------

Listen to the Exhortation of the Dawn!
Look to this Day!
For it is Life, the very Life of Life.
In its brief course lie all the
Verities and Realities of your Existence.
The Bliss of Growth,
The Glory of Action,
The Splendor of Beauty;
For Yesterday is but a Dream,
And To-morrow is only a Vision;
But To-day well lived makes
Every Yesterday a Dream of Happiness,
And every Tomorrow a Vision of Hope.
Look well therefore to this Day!
Such is the Salutation of the Dawn!

Family Trip April 2010

Hai hai... finally, this is the story of our family trip to Central Java on April 2010...
We visited 2 major cities (Yogya & Solo) & some smaller towns (Magelang, Klaten, Wonogiri, Purwantoro..) ... so fun, with no assistants along, we can make the trip full of memory.. Main destination: visiting our nanny's wedding @ Wonogiri
Tips from mom:
1.don't make a long day trips, 3-4 days are more than enough for parents with no nanny...
2. find destination with a short time on flight... don't make the kids get bored up there.. :))

Here are the itinerary:

Day 1 Wed, 31 Mar:

• Jakarta - Jogja first flight.. wheww.. very early from home, kids still aslept :) It's Kian's first trip with flight.. yippie.... !
• Arrived in YK, directly heading to Borobudur Temple (magelang).. what a vacation !!
• After Magelang, we ran to Solo, because Mom booked the hotel in Solo, Novotel here we go..
• Hey.. we have dinner on the street (mom forgot the name, but close to Beteng market)

Day 2 Thu, 1 Apr:

• Swim @ the hotel early since we need to go to Wonogiri for the Wedding..
• We departed to Wonogiri @ 10 am... arrived after 2 hours driving & back to Novotel Solo already 9 pm!

Day 3 Fri, 2 Apr:

• Hah, it's our last day before returning Jakarta (afternoon flight).. we must get rush !!
• After a little bit shopping in PGS, and having story of the missing of Kian (hiks) we left the Pasar Grosir Solo, and heading back to Yogyakarta... 

Enjoy the pics....
