ginger steps.

recalled this article that i read on Sumiko Tan's column many years back.

she wasn't married yet back then, let alone have her own child. but she had a niece whom she doted on. one day she asked her niece, why do you love aunty?

the 5-year-old girl pondered and pondered and could not give an answer. Sumiko thought to herself, i can easily come up with a list of 10 reasons why you should love me. i buy you toys, i get you pretty dresses, i pay for your ballet classes, ..

and then her niece finally replied, because aunty plays with me.

time. is the best gift that you can give someone. don't you agree.
