Happy New Year!

6:00 am, Singapore

Three week school break is over and today is the first day back to school for the kids. Many of their expat classmates will have travelled home (as faraway as Canada) or gone on exotic trips to places like Myanmar and Thailand.
I promised I would take the kids ice skating...in Jurong.
This morning Eliot complained that she wouldn't have anything exciting to report to her class about the holidays because we hadn't gone ice skating. But we did make pancakes, I reminded her.
I really need to manage expectations better.
