Book Review: Thank You God for Blessing Me by Max Lucado
I got this little ebook and I find it’s suitable to be read to babies and toddlers. This is a story of Hermie the Caterpillar going about his daily life but always remembering to thank God.

I love how he said the best way to thank God is not just saying it but to be kind and to obey. That is one important aspect I want my toddler to learn, that being…

Our new Media Player, Asus O!Player Air
So this is something that I’ve wanted for a long time coz I just have so many videos and I’m tired of burning DVDs. Then there is the odd case when ISO files are so large, they can’t get into a normal DVD-R but needs a double layer, which is pricey. So finally we got this player, a Taiwan make. It’s a little sleek black box that fits nicely into our Home entertainment sets without looking out of place. Finally it came with a HDMI cable as I heard earlier versions didn’t include it. So we got it plugged in, and the only thing that needs setting up is the…
