這個聖誕節，
天父送了一份非常珍貴的禮物給我們。
孩子們還未知道所以然，
我和老公則十分感謝和期待。

親愛的家人和朋友，
如果你看得懂我們收到的禮物，
又有話要對我們說，
懇請說正面的、令人愉快的話，
否則請保持緘默。


We receive a very precious gift from our Heavenly Father this Christmas.
Jason and I felt so graceful and we are looking forward to it.
(It's too early to let the kids know the news at this moment.)

Dear all our friends from US,
since my mom and my other family members will get mad about the news,
you are the only source I will get family's greetings and blessings from.
Please share the happiness with us.
May God bless you and Happy New Year.

還有三天，其實蠻期待的……
Three more days to go, and I am quite looking forward to it....

真是一個值得紀念的日子！再過不久我就不用餵飯了！
What a day! I don't need to busy feeding baby at dinner time pretty soon!

這就是孩子們今年畫的賀卡。各位只要點選上面的圖畫進入Flickr網頁，
把滑鼠放在圖畫上移動，就可以看到他們所畫部份的說明。

This is the card they drew for the Year of Cow.

and you will see the part they drew.

每年年三十晚都會到上水太婆家附近吃團年飯。
所以甚麼辦年貨、買年花等等，都要在年廿九前辦妥。
往年我都是一個人帶著孩子們去逼花墟，
今年爸爸為我放了一天假，陪我準備過年的禮物，
還帶了我們一家去逛花墟，使我輕鬆了不少。
We go to Great Grandma's home for feast every lunar new year's eve.
I have to finish all the holiday preparation one day earlier --
the red pocket, fresh flowers, gifts... etc. Last few years,
I took the kids squeezed into the over-crowed
Flower Market by myself.
This year, Jason took a day off to help with the gifts
and also took all of us to the Flower Market.
That's help a lot.

今年我們買了桃花。花店裡還附有小小的賀年揮春賣，
用來掛在桃枝上，十分別緻。
We choose peach blossom this year.
There are little spring charms sold in the shop for the flower decoration
and it is very pretty.

在觀塘年霄市場，哥哥、二哥、雪雪和我都找到心頭好。

小妹終於肯自己看電視，可以找到時間教哥哥做飯！
Janet is watching TV by herself.
It spares me sometime for the brothers cooking lesson.



二哥負責雞蛋，
Mandi takes care of the eggs,



大哥負責蕃茄。
Nolan in charge of tomatoes.



哥哥們一輪努力後，今天晚餐有蕃茄煮蛋吃。
The boys work so hard and we have yummy dinner tonight.

根據這次經驗，哥哥們可以每個月學會一款菜式－－
這也意味著，我可以寄望半年後，
哥哥們可以每個星期主理一次晚餐，
我也有機會在旁晚時間躲懶躲懶了。
My plan is let the boys learn one dishes every month.
They may able to take care of the dinner once a week coming summer --
and I might have chance to take a good break during evening time!
