"Remember this, that very little is needed to make a happy life."
That is my philosophy in life and something I try to instill in my kids, which is why year after year, I insist on giving them only simple but unique gifts on this day to show my ❤. Yup, 妈妈对你们的爱其实很简单，却又无与伦比.
This year, we have been doing upcycling projects at home so I thought of doing these for them. All I used were recycled glass bottles, paper shreds to fill them up, satay sticks wrapped in washi tape, a printout of their photo and a customised message, along with many different mini origami folded using coloured paper.
Let's see, we have a heart, a bat, a penguin, a snail, a crane and a butterfly for each of them and they were really surprised and over the moon to receive them early this morning. They knew each origami was made with my love for them and that was all it mattered.
We then made our way out to have kuey chap for brunch where the kids scooted for 2.4km while I walked (that is how it is after the big girl took over my scooter and we are already blessed to have three) and we had an afternoon of fun exploring a couple of outdoor playgrounds. It may be a simple way to spend the day yet our hearts are full.
Hope everyone is enjoying the long weekend too! Happy Children's Day, everyone! May all the kids have a blast and may all of us stay young at heart no matter how we age. 祝周末愉快!
