Up, Up And Away!

:) Not me, though!

Finally, the waiting is over! Tonight is the night my younger son, Darren and his wife will be flying to Sofitel Fiji Resort and Spa, Fiji Island for an all expenses paid-for holiday (nine days in total) which includes 4 days/3 nights on the Blue Lagoon Cruise. Wow!!! I'm sooo.. happy for them! A dream comes true! A hope fulfilled! God’s blessings to them, indeed!

This awesome award was announced to Darren in early February when he was presented with the President Prize for Year 2005 as best sales consultant in Malaysia of the Asia- Pacific region by his company, Synthes (a company dealing with surgical instruments and implants).

I’m so proud of him and his achievements, especially that he joined this company about 3 years ago and it’s totally alien to his previous jobs. Imagine being in the operation theatre assisting the orthopedic surgeons with the implants and related tools during their operations and seeing blood ‘everywhere’ – eeyak!! I’ll faint right away!

Two whole months of waiting eagerly for this day to unfold passed so very slowly for him and his wife because they were so stressed with anxiety of how to break this news of their impending departure to Dylea their 4¾ years old daughter who has never been separated from them before. But they were pleasantly surprised last week when she accepted their news without any tantrums or fuss and in fact, she’s looking forward to stay with her maternal aunt so that she can play with her cousin 3 years her junior. I think, ;) she’s happy to be absent from pre-school for a week, too!

Godspeed my darlings and pray that The Lord guide, protect and bring you safely home. Enjoy and take care!
