Homegrown lion dance
One-man troupe! LOL!
Bought the yellow, green and red material from Kamdar....stitched
them onto an old pair of pants to complement the stripes on the
train of the lion head. Ethan had been asking for the pants for quite some time
now. Finally got it done and now he's totally in character :)

Be My Valentine!

Valentine tokens from Justin & Ethan :)

Justin's Valentine heart is on the left, Ethan's on the right.

Message on the back of Justin's 'heart'

Ethan's Valentine heart was crafted at school by his teacher and he helped to colour the heart and glue it on a stick.

Justin crafted his own heart design from recycled paper, coloured it and stuck it onto a wooden skewer just like Ethan's.

Allan & I were pleasantly surprised when we returned home to both Justin & Ethan standing at the gate waiting to present us their gifts. I was completely touched by Justin's gesture because at 11 years old I wasn't expecting something like this from him, since he's all 'grown up' and such :) His gesture was especially significant and heartwarming. 'It's the thought that counts'.... how true! :)

Thank you Justin & Ethan. Happy Valentine's!
