外孫褚賢希 Matthias 百日在二月二十六日,為何選在十一日之後舉行宴會?是巧合還是故
意安排呢?
我沒問女兒 Nicole。如不是巧合,則很有心思。那天剛好是慶祝世界上所有勞苦功高,相
夫、教子、工作的婦女的婦女節,亦正好是孫仔出生後 111 天,多美好一個數仔啊 !
宴會在中環四季酒店 Four Seasons 中午舉行,親朋好友濟濟一堂,好熱鬧 !

主家席花擺設

用餐前女兒 Nicole 抱著孫仔,女婿 Victor 致詞多謝親朋好友到賀及多謝妻子辛勞。
及後女兒亦致詞。
到女婿再致詞時說到妻子這些天的努力和互証愛的誓言時,女兒忍了很久的淚,終於滴下
來了。孫仔看來有點累了。
到褚爺爺致詞了。爺爺是基督教神學院院長,但今次並未用聖經上的引言,而用了麥克亞瑟
將軍給兒子的禱詞:
Build me a son, O Lord, who will be strong enough to know when he is weak; and brave enough to face himself when he is afraid; one who will be pround and unbending in honest defeat and humble and gentle in victory.
Build me a son whose wishes will not take the place of deeds; a son who will know Thee -- and that to know himself is the foundation stone of knowledge.
Lead him, I pray, not in the path of ease... and comfort, but under the stress and spur of difficulties and challenge. Here let him learn to stand up in the storm; here let him learn compassion for those who fail.
Build me a son whose heart will be clear, whose goal will be high, a son who will master himself before he seeks to master other men, one who will reach into the future, yet never forget the past.
And after all these things are his, add, I pray, enough of a sense of humor, so that he may always be serious, yet never take himself too seriously. Give him humility, so that he may always remember the simplicity of true greatness, the open mind of true wisdom, and the meekness of true strength.
Then I, his father, will dare to whisper, "I have not lived in vain!"

好可愛的蛋糕 !!!
孫仔,在想什麼呀?
扮切蛋糕,搏影相,哈哈 !
女兒抱著孫仔與來賀親友影相,右一是孫仔外婆。
這幅是胡楓 (修哥) 親妹的全家福,前排右二就是修哥親妹,像不像?看看那胡氏家族鼻就
知。竟然在我女兒及她媽身上亦有此特徵 !
這是上列人的大媳婦,亦是我女兒契媽,親上加親 !
至此禮成,多謝大家收睇 ! P.S. 有沒有發現少了誰?
