The Ancient City

We went to the Ancient City today. The Ancient City is a huge park that is shaped like Thailand. It has 320 acres of land with copies of the ancient buildings from all around Thailand. There are over 116 buildings to explore! I liked the King's Palace the best, because it's pretty!

We ate popcorn and other snacks for lunch. The Ancient City has all kinds of trails, and we rode bikes around the park. We rented bikes for the whole day for only 50 THB (1.50 USD)! Some of the trails are hidden, and I had fun exploring these. We raced with our bikes and I won.

It was so fun I would like to go back again.
Questions for my blog readers:

1. What's the most interesting park you've gone to?
2. Why do you like it?

My Chore Chart

I have a chore chart so I can help around the house. I learn how to do things. Some of my chores are taking out the trash, cleaning my room, and many others.


The chore that I dislike the most is taking out the compost. Because it smells bad and I have to walk through the tall grass.

I really have a good time doing my other chores. When I’m done with one chore, I check it off on my chore chart.

Questions:
1. Do you have a chore chart at home?
2. How do you help around the house?

Happy Mother’s Day

It is funny that there are no advertising, no highlights on the calendar, or any kind of reminder about Mother's Day here in Thailand. There are no Hallmark stores to lure me to “show my mom how much I love her by buying the perfect card”. In Thailand, Mother’s Day is celebrated on the Queen’s birthday, August 13.

I suppose that I shouldn't need a reminder to tell my mom how much I love her and appreciate all her love, care, sacrifice, advice, and nurturing over the past 42 years. Any day can be the perfect day to tell someone how much you love and appreciate them. So don’t wait until a day that is designated by our calendar and culture, share your words and actions of love freely and often to those you love!

So Mom, please know that this Mother’s Day message comes from my heart without any media promptings. As it well should, for you never needed a reminder to shower your children with love. Like God's love which flows freely from His heart. I love you mom!

My Dear Little Christmas Kitten

Today I found a little kitten. It was orange. He had a deep cut around his left front leg. He was attacked and I found him at the end of our yard. He was covered with yucky stuff. His ears were covered in black mud. His shoulder was a big open sore covered with dirt and dried blood. He said, “Meow” to me. And he had a very loud purr. I though he was going to die, so I had compassion on him.

The kitten is a very playful kitten too. He’s about four months old. We call it our Christmas kitten. And in another blog I told you about my two big girl cats. Tesco & Lotus aren’t very friendly to our new guest.

Guess WHAT? He will eat your food if you leave the table! He will jump up and start gobbling up mouthful of your food! Isn’t that cute? But my Dad says, “Scat cat!”

Questions for my blog readers:

1. Have you ever found a stranded human being hurt and covered in mud?
2. Tell me a story about how you helped a hurting person
3. Tell me a story about how you helped a hurting animal
4. How do you show compassion to others?
