this christmas.. i made a special present for a colleague of mine. thought it would be a sweet gift while she is basking in the joys of being newly wed.. and something that she could display in her new nest.
silly me forgot to take a picture of the end product after it is being framed and hastily wrapped it up for her in the office yesterday while she is still out for lunch. so this is what it looks like raw.
really hope that she likes it. i had to rush this out amidst my travelling plans and tedious work load in nov and dec. 🙂
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

i can make you one on ur next anniversary. it didn’t occur to me to make cos i haven’t been touching my cross-stitch stuff for a long time.. and it just so that i was packing my room the other day and came across it..
so there’s an urge to make one for someone. 🙂
