Make a slideshow - it's easy!

Second slideshow posted and more to come ... it's so fun. Can see myself gaining weight over the 3 years ... N I realised that I did not take that many photos with u ... got to work harder than this :)

Mummy learns ...

This is a day worth remembering, a harsh lesson for me. 2 things happen today which really left me in a very depressed mood. It has always been a hard time disciplining u especially when u r at grandma's house. This time, it got really bad. I bring u to bed for ur nap, u refused to sleep, u asked 4 a story, I said "later". N u started wailing! U refused to stop. I waited very patiently n I nearly lose control. U finally stopped when ur grandma tells u to cos u r disturbing baby from her sleep. It was very bad. Later on at night, while preventing u from fighting over a toy, u actually lashed out at me, u hit me continuously. Of course, I was furious. U did what u always do, wail. When I was trying to punish u, ur grandpa bring u to his room and u were pacified immediately... We went home n u knew u were in hot soup. U were ignored. u dare not make too much noise, u did what u were told to do...

So, what's my lesson learnt? I reflected, I really did.. where on earth did I go wrong? At 4, u can argue very well. If I dont get to the root of the problem, it is going to be a very huge problem.

U or rather I have not been spending time with u. That's probably the root cause. N I mishandled u in a rough manner thrice already. I remember. I did not learn. It's my mistake.

Sand ...

Make a slideshow - it's easy!

We finally made it to the beach, only to find a sandpit... All's not lost yet. Well, u were actually very mindful of the sand for the first few minutes but after that, u were sitting down on the sand,, scooping, digging, burying, throwing, running ..... etc .... the next destination? A real beach!

Wow wow.. u r good!

This is one of the things that u learn effortlessly, it;s like u just know how to do this:) The flying turtle was given to us by Papa's colleague but it was broken. Think will be getting u a new one! We'll see...

Who is mummy's favourite boy?

u respond very well to this question. U began picking up writing skills. To date, you know how to write and spell "JEROME" and "NIN"(Kakak's name). Pretty proud of you,dear... I also realise that you are really always testing pepole's patient. You would be an extremely nice boy when we are patient wiht you. But when we lose the patient, you would "act up" This I hope of course is yet but another phase of your life. U r fully toilet trained by now, it happen magically. Have I ever mentioned that u can do colouring very well? Papa started u on "Little Notes" lessons @ Yamaha. U were selective on whether to follow the class or not... To tell the truth, mum is worried. U r not enjoying song and dance like other children ur age. Perhaps u r not too interested? Aren't sure yet. We will keep trying!
