We had just welcomed the new calendar New Year in January. And again, we are going to celebrate the Lunar New Year in February! Regarded as the most important festivity in Chinese community, this is also the longest holidays enjoyed by Malaysian Chinese.

The coming new year welcomes the horoscope of Metal Rabbit. Too many, it is a good year to get married and do a lots of wonderful things.

Last year we were away from our extended family. This year, we are looking forward to reunite with them and closed relatives that we have not met for almost 2 years! To me, a special year for a couple reasons. It is going to be our first Chinese New Year with a ~4 month-old little one. How are we going to celebrate? Mmm...I have never given it a thought except from wishing him to be in great shape during the festival season. Chinese New Year is usually the hottest season in Malaysia so we have to prepare for the uncertainty!

The second significant reason is I am anxiously looking forward to meet someone new in my life! My first rendezvous with my first nephew. My sister's son is turning 7 months old by then. I just can't wait to see him and hug him in my arms. I had heard and read so much about him, yet get a chance for a face-to-face gathering.

Unlike years before, I got excited to bake cookies, getting new clothes, doing spring cleaning and visiting, this year I only have one focus. To take good care of my tiny man! As long as he is well and happy, I am happy too!

Thank you for reading and wishing you a Happy Chinese New Year. Gong Xi Fa Cai. May all of us be blessed with good health and happiness in abundance.
