Grateful

Toys cleared. *partially at least*

Dinner prep done. 

Chinatown checked. 

Yesterday. 12 Jan. 

We brought the kids to Chinatown despite the rain and the crowd. Something we thought was near impossible in the past with only 2 girls or only one then. 

But we did. 

It was short and swift.

We headed for lunch once we reached. That was a good move. Once everybody tummy were satisfied, the sky cleared too. And it was a good time to start walking. 

And we did walk though the crowd. Oh my! How I miss this.

I used to go Chinatown during Chinese New Year with friends. Love to mingle in the crowd and soak in all the festive spirt. CNY is easily my favorite festive! But it had been a long time. 

With the hub holding on to the girls, baby A in sarong, we managed a short walk looking at various CNY goodies and decorations. 

The hub was good. The girls has fun choosing new year goodies to buy. And we also tried several biscuits that were on sale. The girls were happiest when they got to chose their own candy. And Baby A was so tired, he fell asleep in the sarong. Haha... 

Then the sky darkens. And it was time to make a move back. 

Although the trip was pretty short, I'm still grateful we made it. It was awesome bringing the kids around, and doing what we thought was almost impossible in the past.
