With their little hands



On one of the afternoons, just as some of the children were practicing their typing on the laptops, there I was at the same big table, trying to craft out a letter amidst my supervision duty (Haha! yes, supervising over the laptop situation at the big table). While waiting for their go at the laptops, Suchart and Chi took interest in the papers and markers placed before me. They asked if they could each have one of the fancy papers. Yes, sure

Chi remembered the spelling of my name whereas Suchart took a peek at Chi's paper and penned it down too.  

Apart from the sweet writings of "Bella love Suchart" and "Suchart love Bella", Suchart penned down compliments in Thai and gave a little tick beside each as though confirming that those positive attributes were present in me. Can't get any cuter than this! Haha! 

Chi drew two little beings - of himself and I when we were ice-skating. Last September, the children went ice-skating for the first time. Elysia and I were there too and we had a blast! Slipping, tumbling, and laughing at one another. They were so gung-ho! Speeding and falling... and repeating this cycle.

Receiving these drawings/writings from my 10 year old and 11 year old boys made things extra special because somehow I've always thought that writing letters was more of a girl thing. Haha! I kept the little notes and letters that the children gave me last September. Precious like treasures     

Exactly who we are is just enough, 
Bella
