Posted by tyan (Singapore, Singapore) on 15 September 2007 in Plant & Nature.
Hi guys!Sorry I am late today! It has been quite difficult coming to the PC because i have my hands full with the kids. I will see you at your p-blogs soon! thanks for coming!:)
There is this new Bougainvillea garden at East Coast BEach and we took some shots there. This plant thrives under lots of sunlight,just the right plant for a very hot place like Singapore:)

I've never seen flowers like this - they are awesome with two unique shapes and different shades of color.

Dear babe, this is another truly glorious sight!! :) These are such lovely flowers and I really like the way you've captured them here. The colours are so wonderful!! And all the more lovely for homesick eyes like mine - I haven't seen bougainvillea in ages, not even when we were last home in June (probably because we didn't keep our eyes peeled enough!!) Thanks so much for this, babe!! I love it!! :-)
Thanks so much too for your lovely birthday greetings for my Kor today and your wonderful comments. Babe, as said yesterday, I really think you're doing a brilliant job already, and my heart really goes out to you at your having to manage two young ones so much of the time on your own when they're both at such trying ages of their lives!! (Can really empathise both about the super-clingy ways and the toddler tempers!! How super-stressful it must be to have to handle both at the same time!!). I'm so glad to hear you and Law are discussing options like night off, aqua aerobics and such. Yes, I totally "sokong" (Malay word for "support" :) )! Must say I also really like the sound of Mandy's bubble bath suggestion!! That's a really good one. Must try it, ok babe? :o) (heh heh, probably best that you give some 'advance notice' to Law about it *-) ). God bless always, dear tyan. :)
