Goodbye our precious Sammie

Sammie was our precious hamster besides Hammie, her husband which passed away last year. She gave birth twice. Once in June last year and another in July in the same year. The first batch of babies didn't survive but her second one was great. All five babies are grown-ups now. 

Sammie passed away early this morning after midnight.
She had lived her life. 
I promised my girl that I would give her a burial.
Buried her just now right in front of our front gate
besides her beloved husband.


RIP Sammie..

    Always sad to lose a pet. You gave her dignity by giving a burial.

    Pet hamsters have short lives. My bro used to have few but all died. But at least Sammie lived a good life.

    RIP Sammie.

    Sammie must be happy that you gave it a burial. I hope you found a nice box to make her coffin with ribbon tied around it.

    RIP Sammie......huu hu hu hu

    It's sad to lose your pet. That's why I never ever have pets. Also mainly because I don't have the time to take care of them.

    RIP Sammie.. it's always sad to lose a pet, like what Lina said.. though just a small little hamster, but i guess you have built a relationship throughout these years feeding and watching it..

    Last time we had a pet hamster too and when it died, we buried it in the garden near our house (we don't have a garden ourself cos ours is a flat), it is sad to raise pets when they pass away, so nowadays we try not to have any pet. RIP Sammie!

Twin bananas

Today this cute little darling visited me. His grandparents brought him over for the very first time. He's so cute as he smiled readily. I was tempted to carry him and he was fine with that. Some babies don't like strangers.  I carried him and kissed his cheek several times..So adorable. Without hesitation, I gave him an ang pow. his granddad put him on the table and I took a shot of him.. When I went back home in the evening, I realized that the bunch of bananas at the altar has ripen. I brought the bunch to my shop and shared with my people. There was this particular twin bananas and my worker wanted them. She peeled them and I could see that they were adjoined all the way down. Well, old wives tale has it that those ladies who ate them would give birth to twins in future..
