Echoes of Silence

My Sis and family came home from Singapore to celebrate her son's (my nephew's) birthday and stayed for the whole of last week.

Reason why I didn't post this earlier was because I wanted to post up pictures of them, but alas, I haven't got round to it yet. So I'll post this first while I get round to it.

Anyway, it had been a great week. Got to see my neice and nephew. The yells and screams when they demanded attention. Late night chit chats and dream sharing with my sister. Played tons of Scrabble with my Sis and girlfriend.

What I don't understand about my Sis is how she can keep scoring an average of 15 points a round and how she can keep scoring 30+ points using just 2 letters. Her skill at infuriating me astounds me.

Anyways, I got back at her when we played Boggle with her and everyone else (everyone else being: Dad, Mum, Brother-in-Law, and friend. Girlfriend slept after Scrabble).

Yesterday, my parents sent them home to Singapore via the North South Highway. Now the house is devoid of the sounds of the little ones and a sister. I'm missing them very much. Perhaps I shall make my way down to Singapore soon.
