三姊弟的話

爸爸有一晚上告訴我們他在日間的見聞⋯⋯
爸:我今日行山時見到牛呀!
比:咁你有冇擠奶呀?
九唔搭八!爸爸見到嘅應該係黃牛而唔係乳牛呀!就算真係乳牛都唔會就地擠奶吧!

有天,阿妹在討論媽咪的名字(盈)⋯
莉:有兩個型字㗎!一個係好型個型,另一個係唔係好型個型⋯
我已經忍不住大笑起來!我知她的意思是說唔係「好型的型」,但驟耳聽來卻是「好型的型」跟「唔係好型的型」也不外乎是同一個「型」字吧!

同場加映貼心的細佬⋯一晚我們離開叔叔嬸嬸家,在電梯中⋯
力:你有冇攞電話呀?

(久違了的)鄭氏聖誕新年文告



2015 has been a magical year to our family, with the addition of Caleb as our youngest family member! He was a quiet and gentle natured 1.5 year old when we first met him, and soon turned to be a cheerful, sociable and talkative young guy who captured the hearts of many. His presence has brought to us much joy and surprises!

The family life with three children could be hectic and tiring at times, but Connie has been enjoying her full time mothering role. She has been learning and fascinated with the exciting side of having a boy at home. Her mornings are spent with sweet little Caleb, while the late afternoons and evenings are reserved for Abby and Elly (and their homework and studies). She could not accomplish what she could achieve without the unfailing support from her parents.

Abby is now a third grader and has been learning and excelling in her own way. She has grown a lot taller and her appetite has increased a great deal. Approaching her 10th birthday soon, we feel ready (and challenged!) to be with her as she enters the new era of teenage! We are proud also to see her enjoying her participation in her school choir and her regular hip hop class.

Elly has become our proud first grader in this past months. It has been a great adjustment for her but she has been trying her best. She is the same sweet and considerate girl and she has made a lot of good friends at school. As an energetic young girl, she has been enjoying her ballet class, baseball practices and school gymnastics training. We are proud to see her flourishing in various ways.

Philip has always been too busy juggling between work, family and ministry; while having no time in writing this. Period. He is hoping that 2016 will be a different year than this.
