Cute

Apparently we have a cute kid. For the past thirteen days he has been called cute so many times and by so many different people, I’ve lost count. But right now, I’d much rather he be healthy. Because every single one of those people who called him cute were there to care for him whilst …

One Year

My son has just had his first birthday, it wasn’t the celebrations we envisaged but the lockdown meant we had to stay at home. We received parcel after parcel, from all over the World, he was spoilt rotten. The day started with a mini photo shoot with all his presents, a few FaceTime calls followed …

Twenty Nineteen

No, I'm not here to talk about Manchester United's 20 league titles compared to Liverpool's soon to be 19; but it sure is looking that way... after winning their 6th European Cup, 4th UEFA Super Cup and playing for the Club World Cup later today, it has been a great year as a Liverpool supporter. …

Circle of Life

Almost three weeks ago my wife checked into hospital for induction of labour. On the very same day, we were told by the doctors that my grandma didn't have much time left. My grandma has been in and out of hospital for months, her body deteriorating from old age. She is currently in Hong Kong …

The pain and suffering experienced by my sister, and her husband, right now must be unbearable. I cannot even imagine what she is going through. My wife and sister have had very similar experiences during the past 12 months; blighted ovums, miscarriages and doing everything possible to conceive once again. Eventually both found themselves pregnant …

Paper

In two weeks time it will be our 1st wedding anniversary... I cannot believe it's been a year already. For months and months leading up to that day, it was all that was on our minds. Once it was over we felt such relief but time sure has flown. Quite a lot has happened this …

Chans

Never have I wrote two blog posts in such quick succession, never have I had so much to get off my chest in such a short space of time. But here I am... What was a 2 tough weeks has led to a third nightmare week. I accompanied my wife to the Early Pregnancy Unit …

Baby

The past couple of weeks have been tough, I mean really tough. Of course, a busy financial year end at work is a given. There’s no getting away from the deadlines at such an important time of the year. Having to deal with all the last minute decisions can be extremely stressful. However, Liverpool beating …

Uncle

Today is one of the saddest days of my life, as my uncle was laid to rest. This is the first time I have experienced the death of a close family member... close as in having spent time with them, growing close to them. I know that death is a part of the circle of …
