Xia Suay

Nature is amazingly Resilient
Not sure how the original cactus dropped and was broken, it was left with two tiny leaves.
We put the leaves back into the soil, 3 weeks later, more leaves sprouted.

Abase = to disrespect or degrade oneself. 
In Hokkien, the word is "Xia Suay".....

This small pocket dictionary is really useful. There are many words that I had either forgotten or are new to me. Glad to learn together with the kids, although I'm the one pushing them to learn, of course.

Was a bit disappointed with that limited number of colours from the Viviva colour booklet.
But well, shall use it up.
