In the past few weeks before her departure

Wen-ning wished for the following :

1) To be able to plant a papaya tree...and see it grow

2) To draw her favourite idol

3) To have a new pencil case

4) To have her own blog

5) To have her own laptop

6) To have a new and bigger bicycle

7) To play a game of draught and badminton

8) To walk with her best friend to secondary school

9) To score 7 As .....and go to university

10) To visit all the places she used to go in her younger days

11) To celebrate her 11th birthday on August 10

Wen-ning has gone .....





it is too late to fulfill her wishes now






And we can only regret




that we did not listened to her




....nor pay more attention to her







and gave her




the time and space




plus the little things




that she had wished for .....







If you have enjoyed reading this blog




.... and have made a connection to her







or perhaps




been moved by the contents




.... and have shed a tear or two








finding some similarities




in what this blog evokes




with your own life




..... and the lives of your kids





as well as




the lives of your loved ones .......








then please remember





to post your final comment





....and say a thoughtful prayer







to dear little Wen-ning ....







She may be gone




but the wonderful memories





and her lingering legacy




shall live on ......
