Sorry I've been out of the loop again! I meant to write a thanksgiving blog post, but time just flew by.
Thank you for your support, if you've been shopping over at my shop during the sale period. I am especially grateful for all the sale that came in.
I just celebrated my birthday last week, and it was a quiet affair. I was especially thankful that my friend from Seattle stayed to spend the day with me and Mom. I cooked, but also bought some food.
My mom has a habit of giving me a red packet each year. I keep almost all the red packets. This year, I noticed that my mom has more difficulty with her writing. Because I keep all the red packets, I could tell the difference from year to year.
Still, despite her difficult condition, she writes. I cherish all the red packets and her handwriting.
Today, I'm teaching a class. I'll go prepare now!

Often birthdays are quiet for a good reason Pei Li but what a great blessing that you have your mother's traditional gift to enjoy for this birthday too.
ReplyDeleteI wish I'd had the fore-sight like you, to keep more of what my mother wrote to me through-out the years but I congratulate you for doing so.
Wishing you a belated Happy Birthday Pei Li and may the year ahead be BETTER in every way- for both you and for your mother! :)
