Work tended to be slower in the earlier part of 2009 as Mummy is basically working in the capital markets where all IPOs died when the crisis hit. That was why Daddy and Mummy decided it was time to give me a little sister this year. And so we had Shannon added to our family in August. She is so adorable and I simply love her. Mummy is definitely glad when friends and family commented that Shannon looks more like Mummy (especially after having dealt with all comments about me being a photocopy image of Daddy...)
Daddy and Mummy also had their long awaited annual vacation to New Zealand with little Shannon in Mummy's tummy. It was a place that they had wanted to visit for a long time. And finally, they had the opportunity to do it in April. It was definitely a trip worthwhile as they enjoyed the beautiful scenery at a lower cost due to the depreciating NZD.
Since little Shannon arrived, Mummy's always had her hands full, either busy with me or Shannon. It's been really tough especially since Daddy recently took on a new project role at work that requires him to be travelling and away from home for more than 50% of the time. So it has been rock-and-roll every night as Shannon and I bunked in with Mummy on her king-sized bed... As the capital markets recover in the latter part of the year, Mummy has also taken on another US IPO and that has definitely kept her really busy since she returned to work in mid November.
So as we look forward to a better 2010 (as all the economists have predicted), we continue to ask God to watch over our lives.
