Yayness!!!

It has been a fabulous start to the weekend! Yesterday morning my cousins texted me to say that we have a new baby niece. We all plan to meet tomorrow for yum cha first and then visit her and her ecstatic mummy and daddy at the hospital. That is not the only good news I received. After a year of waiting... John got his PR yesterday !!! We are very happy and relieved. We are also feeling very blessed because we were not sure whether John would get it because the Aussie government has halved the skilled migrant intake due to the economy. We are very very relieved. The news gets even better. One of the conditions is that John has to make a trip to Australia before a certain date... which means we get to see each other again sooner than expected! How wonderful! We are indeed very blessed. *beam*

I went for a walk this morning and decided to take a different route. I love morning walks on still winter days just as the sun is rising. It drizzled just for a little while and just as I was thinking that it was a slightly crummy way to end a nice walk, the drizzle stopped and I saw a rainbow in the distance. :) Ah weekends... what's not to love?

Oh! And here is proof that my gardening skills are all right. Meet my potato plant. Unlike the weed that remotely resembled a potato plant, this is the real McCoy.



And meet my shallots! They are looking healthy, no? :)



Wheee~! Have a fantastic weekend everyone!
