2007 was the most difficult year of my life.
Growing up in a poor family, I have always dreamt of having financial freedom, and for the last 3 years I really thought I finally made it; I made enough money to buy a new house, invest in land, and buy brand-new cars. The run was so good, I though it would never end. And then the economy started to slow down. I loss almost everything in this down market.
I realized that the most painful thing in life is not being poor, but to have succeeded and then lose it all.
But then again 2007 was also the best year of my life. Because this year we welcomed Regina (the youngest addition to the Ku family). With her beautiful smile, she catches everyone's heart and attention. And by loving and caring for her, everyone else showed me the greatest sense love and forgiveness. This was the year I learned how to love and cherish again. This was the year I cerebrated life. This was the year I rediscovered that the real value in life is the support and kindness that we give and receive from each other.
This was the year that I appreciate the most.
I am so thankful for Amy and how she gives all her love to Regina. I owe her my life.

And Eric, you are the best. At the restaurant you are the best employee and at school you are a great student and for Regina you are the perfect big brother and for a father, you are the best son that any could have.
For John Sun for helping me open our new business.
For Nino and Jackie's family, we are not just business partners but friends for life.
Everyone that holds and kisses Regina with us, I thank all of you from the botom of my heart that you help make our baby feel so special and loved. It will take me a lot of work to get out of this one, and with all the love and support that I get from everyone around me I know I can make it .
