My precious elder brother always has a smile for everyone, even strangers and enemies. Some think he is stupid when in fact they are the real fools for not recognizing his magnanimity. How many of us will not lash back when insulted, scolded or beaten. My saint brother will just smile, say "omitofo, eat more tofu" and walk away. MM strongly believes in peaceful, non-retaliating act amid confrontations. Yes, we have a "Dalai Lama" in the family.
This is a tribute to my dearest brother, who has given me a new life and continues to encourage and inspire me to be a better person.
Given that today is also Academy Awards 2009, the Oscar goes to..... (drum rolls).......MM for the following awards:
The best brother award
The best brother-in-law award
The best uncle award
The best nephew award
The best husband award
The best father award
The best son-in-law
The best broker award

11.01 is a very special day for my family, because a stork delivered an angel to the Lee family some XX years ago. From that very day onwards, this lucky baby has brought our Papa and Mama lots of luck and continues to enrich everyone in the family with unconditional love, silly laughter and unwavering support even at her own expense. Yes, our precious BB has an enormous heart and a self-sacrificing nature.
BB is a filial daughter, the best any parent could wish for.
Heute hat die liebe Oma Geburtstag.
3 is the magic number today. Because today is the 3rd of November. Because Stephan and I tied the knot in Denmark 3 years ago. Because there are 3 Pigs in our sty.
The 3 Lil' Pigs celebrated the occasion at home over homemade Sprinkles-inspired cupcakes. Oink Oink oink.
We drove to Hamburg last weekend to meet our dear friend Dr. R from India. Dr. R was on a short business trip to Hamburg so we decided at the very last minute to head north. Stephan's younger brother, U, and his lovely pregnant wife, S, were very kind to put us up for a night in Germany's second largest city.
S & U, thanx again for your great hospitalily! We'll see u in a couple of weeks with your lovely bundle of joy!
