had a good time today. :) got our printer, and got to visit baby rhema and her family.

and lunch was viet food at Footscray with housemates and Logan. dinner was home-cooked food by Eric's mum. it was really a nice time having some fellowship together over dinner, and watching baby rhema.

seeing Atom feeding Rhema has probably pricked some maternal instincts in everyone. babies are really wonderful gifts from God to the household. :)

and was quite nice to hear about the meaning of Rhema's chinese name from her grandma. unique. "Cong Mi". it means wisdom and joy. :)

really enjoyed the day. makes me feel so back at home. the journey back home was rather nice too. saw a big moon admist the fast moving clouds. not quite sure if it's full moon. but nevertheless, nice. :)

thank the Lord for always sending people, things, or even nature to be blessings.

tmr's cg is sports at La Trobe. :) look forward!

anw, was listening to the christian FM 89.9 yesterday in the library, and heard this song. and today, the song rang in my head, and i thought i may get to hear it again, so i plugged in my earphones, and true enough, it played this christian pop while i was on the bus to city. pretty moved by the story in the song. the lyrics are really kind of sweet, and meaningful. :)

Walking Her Home- Mark Schultz
Looking back
He sees it all
It was her first date
the night he came to call

Her dad said,
"Son, have her home on time.
And promise me
you'll never leave her side."

He took her to a show in town
And he was ten feet off the ground

He was walking her home
holding her hand
Oh the way she smiled
it stole the breath right out of him

Down that old road
with the stars up above
He remembers where he was
the night he fell in love
He was walking her home

Ten more years and a waiting room
and half past one
and the doctor said
"Come in, and meet your son."

His knees went weak,
when he saw his wife
She was smiling as she said
"He's got your eyes."

As she slept he held her tight
His mind went back to that first night

He was walking her home
holding her hand
Oh the way she smiled
it stole the breath right out of him

Down that old road
with the stars up above
He remembers where he was
the night he fell in love
He was walking her home..

He walked her through
the best days of her life
Sixty years together
and he never left her side

A nursing home
At eighty five
And the doctor said
"It could be her last night."

And the nurse said
"Oh, should we tell him now
Or should he wait until
the morning to find out?"

But when they checked
her room that night
He was laying by her side

He was walking her home
holding her hand
Oh the way she smiled
when he said "This is not the end."

Just for a while
They were eighteen
And she was still more beautiful
to him than anything
He was walking her home

He was walking her home

Looking back
He sees it all
It was her first date
the night he came to call...
