Summer holiday has officially started, a year has come to an end. For some New Year’s Eve may be the end of the year but for me, last day of school always evokes the same feelings with one more chapter closing. At the beginning of the school year I shared about the challenges our son was facing. How the transition from middle school to secondary school had been quite a shock. His vulnerability at math class in particular. At the time, so many of you responded with so much kindness and encouragement. I don’t think I ever shared that I read your words of empathy to him but they made such a difference. It was the same for our daughter having a challenging time these past months at the end of middle school. Without having to go into detail, many of you knew exactly what I was saying, immediately offering warm words of understanding. I’m relieved to share our son did well. Math may not be his favorite subject (for now) but his grade has been sufficient enough to pass the school year. I can’t tell you how proud I am. As for our daughter, she is excited to look ahead. Although sometimes scared for the next fase because of what happened, she keeps the faith in meeting new friends at secondary school. Often times, you have thanked me for the flowers but I have been equally thankful for the solace, care and kindness from so many of you in vulnerable times. ‘Celebrating Abundance’, one of my favorite summer arrangements (with complete step by step instruction) from my book, A Sweet Floral Life. Happy Sunday and a wonderful new week from my home and family to yours. #summerlove #asweetflorallife #endofyear #sothankful #currentmood
