I'm in love with every kick and movement of the life inside me.

I'm also feeling very heavy and uncomfortable while at work everyday. It's challenging for working moms like me yet I'm embracing every minute of my last trimester for BB #3.

What an incredible feeling to experience pregnancy for the 3rd time. And realize that if my love for my unborn child is already unconditional, what more God's love for us, His children.💙

On the most memorable moments of your life, you rarely have photos of it.

Just like me breastfeeding my 2 boys. I realized I only have a few photos showing my breastfeeding journey.
I guess it was uncomfortable for me for the world to see. Or ask someone to take my photo. Hehe. I felt like each moment of breastfeeding is my special / private bonding with my boys. And capturing it was the least priority.

I still get so passionate talking about breastfeeding because of its awesome wonders. It's amazing what mother's bodies can do. And that's simply not from us mothers. It is GOD'S GIFT to us and our children!

All by God's grace, I get to breastfeed my boys... until now even when I'm preggy.🙈 I'll only stop when my body says so.💙

(Yep! We have a hashtag 😄) went on a Friday night out at . We tried their Acoustic Weekend Grill.
Imagine dining outdoors by the pool, eating unlimited seafood like Oyster Rockefeller, scallops and Steak, while watching and listening to live acoustic music! It sounds so normal but after the pandemic, we appreciate this kind of family activity a lot!💙

One of the highlights of my entrepreneurial life is being part of Alibaba Business School. Juggling the business, motherhood and school was quite an adventure! There were days I wanted to quit and just focus on the business. Plus, the pandemic! Hay! What a journey!🙏

Anyway.
It was refreshing to finally talk and meet with my Alibaba colleagues in person late last year. Feels encouraging when you know you're not alone in your journey. And we all have similar problems in biz life! Haha!

Seb: Why are you not going to the office today?
Me: It's Christmas family time!
Seb: You're not going to the office?
Me: No we're going to the zoo!
Seb: WOW! I love Christmas!

Just some of our conversations over the holidays made me realize how vocal and expressive Seb is. He speaks his mind a lot and can basically comment about anything under the sun. Haha! He's also at the "WHY" stage and his curiosity about life amazes me!

Now that kids can't go out again saddens me we're limited to home activities again. Oh well, better to be safe than sorry. I'm just grateful we were able to meet some animals as a family. Counting this as a big blessing still!

May we all have a HAPPY & HEALTHY 2022!!!💙💙P.S. Excuse the bag of Cheetos 😂     #2022
