Hello Son
Our school project is ready.
The video made by the children.
If We Hold On Together.
How we got all the videos is another story altogether.
Amazing things can happen when you believe.
Show the videos to Jesus and Mama Mary, k?
Hugs,
Mom
VIDEO
When Mom first decided to do the video ... it was just a small, tiny idea.
Small ... because your mother has never done anything like this before ... and she does not have the experience to think bigger than the small idea she initially had ... which was :
A video for the 6 year olds graduating students.
And tiny ... because it didn't look possible for Mom to produce this virtual video as she knows completely next to nothing about the know how or how to.
Nope, not a single clue.
Mom discussed it with Aunty D, and told Aunty D to search for a tutorial video for us to try to make this virtual video.
After a few days, Aunty D said she went through some videos, but they were all hard to understand. It's not a straightforward thing, she said.
It's difficult.
Your mother's small, tiny idea was fast becoming um, microscopic ... when she happened to mention to one of her teachers, who was in our home that day (because of online classes), that we were thinking of trying to do a virtual video ... and Teacher A casually replied that she knows how to do.
Pause.
What?
Really?
You know how to do this video?? Mom asked her repeatedly.
The one that has many children put together in one video - you know how to do that?
Teacher A was laughing when she confirmed it.
Oh boy ... how wonderful.
So Mom prepared a simple tutorial video with Teacher A and Teacher E for the children to follow and practise at home. We also had several practise rounds during Music & Movement session online ... which was not easy to do, but we tried our best to do as much as we can.
We received the videos from the 6 year old parents by our due date 14th November.
All of our 15 graduates sent in their videos.
It was amazing.
Then, Aunty D happened to record Baby Ryan (3 years old) doing the routine when big brother Dylan (6 years old) was practising his movements at home.
See the 2nd video above. :D
That made Mom think ... hey, the little ones can do it too.
So, Mom decided to have all the children in the school to to their own video.
Your mother started to send her tutorial video (the video beside Ryan dancing) to all the other children.
Due date for them was 21st November.
It was soon apparent that the younger children did not find this project as doable as the 6 year old graduates. By the 21st, there were about 10 parents who gave frustrated feedback that they were not able to get their child to make the video.
Mom shared Ryan's video with them.
Pause.
Fingers crossed.
One by one, the parents sent in their child's video.
Perhaps it is easier for a child to imitate another child.
Oh, that video of Ryan certainly helped.
Thinking back, You must have whispered to Baby Ryan to do his little dance moves, and Aunty D to record that. Imagine Aunty D even recorded right to the end ... where Ryan jumps up and down shouting "I DID IT! I DID IT!"
How cute was that!!
Later on Aunty D would say that she's thankful she recorded the whole video ... because the song is about 5 minutes long. Normally she would only record a minute or 2 to share with the family.
So anyways ... to cut a long story short ... the video was done on the 3rd of December ... which happened to be Teacher A's birthday. Yeah, we planned it that way so that we could go out to celebrate on Thursday 3rd.
Mom and Dad took Teacher A out to Bangsar to have lunch. We were so happy that day, having made the video ... which was quite impossible to do in the beginning.
That night at home, Mom went to the fridge to take 2 small tubs of yogurt.
She gave one to Dad.
Your parents were enjoying the yogurt before the telly.
Half-way through, for some reason only You would know because You had something to do with that, but Mom stopped to flip over the cover of the yogurt tub.
She wanted to see the Best Before date.
Mom has never done that before -- check the Best Before date halfway through her yogurt -- your parents only check the Best Before date when buying at the grocers.
Anyway ...
Mom saw this.
GASP!
OMG!!!
OMG!!!
ZAP!!! ZAP!!! ZAP!!!
What are the chances???
Mom yelled out to Dad, "OMG, see my date ... it's
21/1/21
January 21 is your anniversary.
You left us to live with Jesus and Mama Mary on
21st January, 2010.
OMG! Would You just take a look at those numbers.
Do You not see : 21/1/21 ???
Mom could only stare at her yogurt cover to hold on to that precious ZAP moment.
Check out the numbers 01:43.
Is that some kind of time? She didn't care because she saw another message from her Son.
01:43
OMG ... is that not 44???
Your angel code number.
Mom was so happy.
"I knew Daniel was behind this, I knew it. He was definitely helping us out with the video. It was too amazing how everything just fell into place so nicely. We just finished it today ... and we are about to upload. I have to see this date on my yogurt tub. He has just whispered to me, I know it. Since when do I ever check the date half-way through my yogurt???? Never ever! It's miraculous how this video could have been made. We had an angel's help alright!! That's so so confirmed."
Thanks so much, Son.
You truly are so helpful ... even though You are so far away. You really do know how to make your presence felt ... at all times, Daniel. Mom is so grateful to Jesus for that.
The bond between a Mother and her child can never be severed.
It's so true.
Never.
Ever.
Mom asked Dad excitedly, "See your date quick!"
Dad turned his yogurt cover over and said, "Mine is 23 ..."
Pause ...
What?
OMG!
23???
That's 1994.
Your birth year!
ZAP!!! ZAP!!! ZAP!!!
It's YOU. All YOU!
Mom grabbed Dad's yogurt tub to check the numbers for herself.
23/12/20 stared back at her.
23 - your birth year 1994
2 times 21
Not only that but the numbers 22:22 was a further confirmation.
Why, that's a clear 44.
You ... all YOU.
All You, Daniel.
Mom knew it was You all along ... otherwise things would not have been so smooth ... still, it's so much nicer to get solid confirmation all the way from Heaven.
That's just awesome!
Message received and understood.
Over to You, Son.
Love You,
Mom
