OUR BOY HAS GROWN

Two days ago, we received this.




















It's so obvious that our little boy has grown up.  For every boy in Singapore who turns 13 will get a notification from the Ministry of Defence that we have to apply for exit permits if Jonathan was travelling overseas.

Jonathan will be 13 come February next year.  How time flies.  How fast he has grown.  How we have come so far with him.  How we have seen his progress from a quiet toddler to a boy who now babbles non-stop.

Last night while he was waiting to go to bed, he started babbling and laughing.  I went to his room asked what he was doing.  He said "praying in tongues".  He's grown, has told me he prays for his own healing.  He told the Lord he wants to speak words and start walking.  I'm thankful to the Lord for his maturity.

Since he's grown taller too, his muscles are stronger.  The mat that he's been using has started to peel under his powerful feet kicking and dragging.  First it was a bubble under the cover layer of the mat.  Then, it started tearing.  And so the tear became bigger and Jonathan's hands was always caught under the cover layer.  We decided to peel and cut off along the lines as you can see the cutting knife in the picture below.


















 Now the mat looks like this.  But because of Jonathan's constant moving and pushing, the tear has now become gone beyond the white patch haha.  Soon it will be totally white!

My friend will be giving me her mat because her daughter is not using it anymore.  So the time is just right.


Hope everyone had a wonderful Christmas.  MERRY CHRISTMAS TO ALL AND GOD BLESS YOU ABUNDANTLY!
