Praises to Almighty for all the blessings that have been bestowed upon us. Ever since I got back for the Semester break, life has not been a dull moment. Catching up with family members and friends, the flow of food has not stopped and opportunities for family to mingle been aplenty.

I was out at Shahbandar early today for the morning hike and Bunny was looking for me to inform that the family are coming over to the house. As usual food galore!! Everyone contributed and brought food along to micasa. Thank you very much to family members that brought along.. satay, mee rebus, Tiddies roasted two legs of lamb, drinks and Bunny.. as usual in charge of desserts..hehehee

But the best thing was some sports activities that didn't happen during the last family gathering, took event today. This time the kids wanna do a tug-of-war competition. Acquiring a thick rope from a local supplies shop, everyone was hyped in taking part in the event.

It was great to see faces of children smiling, hearing their laughter and see happiness in their faces. From these pictures, I sincerely can cherish these moments when parents and children mingle..having fun. I always wonder what when wrong when you read or hear stories of children being abused physically or otherwise? It made us think that every child has his or her own right to embrace life and get education. As a father, I guess we all believe in giving the best to our children so that they have a satisfying life, full of education, love and laughter. This lot as you can see.. are full of love, joy and laughter in their lives.!

Waiting for their turn to pull

Thank you to the Umpires for making the event, a success!!!
