Family. A Sense of Identity.
The fact that we live in Singapore while our other family members live in Indonesia and everywhere else around the world means that we (sadly) don’t get to enjoy family gatherings that often.
Last month was a great month for both Anya and Vai though, as my parents AND Wilson’s parents took turns in visiting us here in Singapore for a few days *thanks to the traditionally long Hari Raya holiday break in Indonesia*
Personally, I think it’s important that our kids get to spend (more) time with other family members as well.
Grandparents. Aunts. Uncles. Cousins.
Because as they spend time with each other, these little ones get to see themselves as being an important part of a much bigger picture.
And THAT I believe, will sure help in the development of a stronger sense of identity in them too.
