Sometimes we wonder how old we would live till.. whether we would be fortunate to see our little ones grow up, whether we would be fortunate enough to see our grandchildren? Or even great grandchildren?
Well my granny sure is blessed. 86 year old ‘ah ma’ whom mommy thinks is really fortunate and blessed to be able to enjoy her 86th birthday with the family – with her children, grandchildren AND great grandchildren! And most importantly, ah ma is still very healthy.. being able to live on her own, take care of herself and even drive around crazy BP town in her old-and-manual-and-almost-conked-out red car. At this age, ah ma always says that she is already very happy being able to see all of us grandkids grow up.. and now even having our own kids. That to her is happiness.
So while we know ah ma is not getting any younger, we try to visit her a little more often and mommy is glad this year, we have managed to visit her 3 times already in half a year. That’s not bad. =) And she was especially delighted with our last visit as it was to celebrate her 86th birthday.
Mommy is glad Wayne has a chance to know his ‘ah chor’, a feat not many has a chance to. 84 years apart – that’s 7 cycles of the Chinese horoscope between them. Yeps, they are both born in the year of the Ox. And yeah, they are both pretty stubborn people too.
Happy 86th birthday, ah ma!

This shot was funny, Wayne wanted to stand beside all of us, just like one of us adults.
