We (Andrew, Shally & Elyse) left KL at 4:30pm and reached TI around 6:30pm. Erwyn did not join us though, he stayed with his grandma back in KL.
We dropped by at The Store, Daddy wanted to give Elyse a treat - children rides! After all, where else can you find RM0.50 per ride? Mummy took the opportunity to buy a school bag for Elyse. Her current one is a bit too small. Elyse chose Kung Fu Panda bag for herself at the price of RM20.

Then, we rushed to the Restaurant. Most of the TI folks were there. Elyse was a bit moody at first, soon she mingled around like a superstar, enjoying the limelight. She was particularly looking out for Uncle & Aunty Loh and Mr & Mrs Kerk.
The dinner began after the LCEC Chairman, Mr Kerk, gave thanks for the food. Everyone indulged in the persumptuous meal in delight. Then, the MC, Mr Chong Ho, invited Uncle Loh, the oldest member of the church, to present the farewell gift to Andrew. Jokingly, he told the crowd it was during the Annual Conference that he realised Andrew needed a GPS. "It is for his safety", Chong Ho said. He recalled Andrew flipping thru the pages of the map as he drove around KL.
The dinner ended with Shally presenting a song 'So You Would Come' under Mrs Kerk's request. We left around 9:45pm. Elyse felt asleep half way through the journey. However, when we reached KL Wesley, we found ourselves locked out! The gate was closed but thankfully the guard was alert. He assisted us gladly.
The one year stay in TI has enriched our lives so much.
Thank you Lord, for using us as your channel of blessing to TI folks. At the same time, we have been so blessed because of every single one of them.
