a constant reminder to myself..

most would know i am not christian, despite attending sunday school when i was growing up. i think the lure for me to go church in the past was the pretty precious moments bible i had. now, it’s not that i don’t believe in him.. but it’s just too long an explanation to even try to explain.

anyway, last year, i made something meaningful.. i thought it would be a nice gift for her. this year, i am not that free anymore and despite cooking up plans to make something special for my friends, i seriously spent all the time mending my heart and learning to be happy.

mich msged me the other day the message that was on the cross stitch that i made her.. the serenity prayer. everytime i feel like im hitting rock bottom, i read it out loud in my mind to psych myself up, so i just want to share this here, especially for friends whom are like me, trying to stay strong..

God grant me the serenity to accept the things i cannot change, the courage to change the things i can, and the wisdom to know the difference.

there is this other phrase that i used to tell him loads as well..

Perservere – when the going get tough, the tough(that’s me now!) gets going.

Hi there! Thanks for popping by. I'm Cherie, a ftwm (full-time working mum) to 3 lovely kids (2 boys & a princess) and my motto in life is to BE HAPPY. Sure, life isn't all that smooth but it's the mentality that counts, no? This blog documents my life. Or rather, snippets of my life that has passed me by. I love capturing life memories in the blog and being able to read back and laugh at myself (or anyone). I love to eat (A LOT), travel and paint my own nails so the blog is mostly about that. Is that considered lifestyle? Of cos, the family is also very much an integral part of me so there would be loads of memories about the husband and my kids - Jerry (9yo), Jerome (7yo) and Leia (2.5yo) and everyone else that's close to me. I like documenting the kids' milestones, their growing up years, their achievements (and sometimes, mine), and my struggles and battles with motherhood. It sure ain't easy. I love seeking out good food and travelling, is trigger-happy, love new gadgets, love exploring new places and strives to live life to the fullest. I aspire to travel the world as much as I can, to soak in the different sights across the various continents and visit all the Disneylands in the world (almost there!). Have fun reading and do drop me a comment to say hi! Love, Cherie Lim Find me on Instagram.
