Chinese New Year for MaMa at her senior center :3

On Saturday a bunch of the family went out into New Territories to visit with MaMa at her senior center New Years celebration. As she is getting on in years (I think she is 89 this year), she has been showing her age more and more.
I made that hat! Super excited when I saw the picture on Whatsap from the family :D
MaMa has trouble remembering lots of things now, and needs constant care. The senior center has been helping the family with engaging MaMa to make crafts, and sing songs, and generally give Ah Di and Tom a rest.

Uncle Eddy met up with us at Admiralty MTR so we could take a bus together out to the center. We chose our timing a bit poorly, as it was in the middle of rush hour, so took us almost 2 hours to arrive.

The center took a photo once everyone gathered, then it was time to sit down and listen to music, eat buffet, and watch the slide show of pictures.

The helpers passed out tambourines to play along with the traditional new year songs. Little Bear got totally into it.


Photo cards were put together from the picture taken earlier, and given to MaMa. The card was lovely, and the pop up 2016 inside was neat.



Happy Chinese New Year!
