Soon.....

As I will for the hands on the clock to move slower, it seems to do just the opposite. In a matter of hours, I'll be sending my sister off to the airport where she will return home to Singapore. Had she been here for 2.5 weeks? It certainly didn't feel like it. We spent so much time talking and sharing tales of our lives. To put it simply, catching up with the time lost. Of course not forgetting the intensive retail therapy we both enjoyed.

Before she came, I was very apprehensive about the timing of her trip. But I'm very glad she did as she helped to take the edge off an otherwise a very stressful time of my life. We closed one eye on checks of our movements, braved the bitter cold and crowd to hit the shops and took the girls to London. It had been one of the best X'mas and New Year I've ever had.

Dearest Sis,

Thank you for visiting us in UK. We had thoroughly enjoyed your company and hope you had a great time too!

Thank you for all the gifts you had brought and bought.

Thank you for helping to look after the girls when I was busy.

Thank you for listening when I needed someone to talk to.

Thank you for all the advice you'd given me.

Thank you for being my sis (well, actually you didn't have a choice, did you? :p).

Love,
