Mervyn Hoe: My Daily Happenings

  On 2nd November 2014, I just had my first fun run after so many years! I think the latest one was when I was in the Army Half Marathon, back when I was in Army. I want to thank Tuck Leng for organising this event! And it's really a great get-together for the 4 of us and I feel that we will be participating more fun runs together!     Picture of Siyang, Tuck Leng, me and Lionel  The weather was fine and it's really great feeling to jog for a great cause - To give to Community Chest.  We signed up for the 5km fun run. And we did it! Sprinting at the last 100m, as the loser will treat everyone breakfast. Tuck Leng and I tied at first place, followed by Lionel and Siyang came in last! Boohoo. I have never dashed so fast in my life ever!    There are many hydrating points and we had Pocari Drinks too.   So many getting themselves hydrated even before the run   Look! There are so many people attending! The fun run started at 8am

Children are amazing - They have unlimited strength, will power and great learning attitude to learn new things everyday! I'm just so amazed that every single day, my children are growing mentally and physically! So proud of them. Their display made me feel that we, adults must be even stronger than them! I have learnt about Persistence, Courage and Strong Will from them! 1. Persistence  Josh with the bicycle in August 2014 Recently, Josh managed to cycle on his own! Two months ago, we bought a bicycle, with additional 2 small back wheels, and he was cycling very fine with it. It was only a month back that Eve decided to remove the back wheels as we feel that he is ready with just the original bicycle. He was quite taken aback of the removal of the small wheels, and we supported him at the back a few times at the park. He is a cautious boy and he will always make sure that we are holding on to his bicycle when he is cycling.
