Tristan's Flash Cards

I am so proud of my son! This is Tristan's progress in school. Maybe I am biased, but I think he's a friggin GENIUS! :P

Nex

We headed to Nex during the weekend. They had a huge water play area for kids.. bb had so much fun getting WET!

Tristan goes to School!

I am one of those kiasu mom who can't wait for their son to go to school.. hee hee. Finally, today is the 1st day of school for him. We are doing it for a trial period of 2 weeks to see if he is fully ready. But between both of us, i am the more excited one.

We've got alot of support too from both po po n yi yi. Popo bought his frog school bag n yi yi bought us a 'big boy' water bottle and we are set for school! Thank you Po po n Yi yi!!

The 1st day was good. Brought him to school n stayed with him for a while. After he got warmed up with the teachers, i told him that i was leaving and quickly exited the classroom. Of course he protested and cried a little but as soon as they started the circle time with singing and dancing, he settled down, Phew! Throughout the day, he didn't cry at all but i must say the teachers played a big part by carrying n comforting him. :)

政耀

Bb loves water, I'll try to bring him for a swim once a week but if i can't, we'll have water play outside when it's a good day.

After going for mandarin class for half a year, bb can recognise his mandarin name 政耀 :P. Today, during snack time, when 老师 ask if he wants biscuit, he said 要, 谢谢.
There are simple moments like this where i feel a sense of pride seeing him
progressing so well. Good job son!

Farewell My Dogs...

Today, Kim and Emily passed away..
Good bye & thank you for being such good doggies..

谢谢

Most of the time i jus wouldn't know if bb is taking in anything i say to him until one day when he ask for shui (water) and when i handed his water bottle to him, i hear the golden words: "谢谢"... It just brighten my day. Although right now, he doesn't know the meaning of the words but it's really nice to know that he's copying the correct stuff instead of the occasional or accidental Sh** that i blurt out, forgetting he's there. opps... ha ha ha

Cheeky Monkey

Yi yi bought us a new set of PJs for CNY.. Thanks Yi...

My cheeky monkey threw a wooden block at his cousin today and she got a big bak lu ku plus a cut on her forehead.. Haiz :( I was worried and felt very sorry for her. But at the same time, i felt very helpless as this is the stage where he doesn't really understand anything even if i discipline him..
So in the end, all i could do was to say countless sorrys to her and her parents.. :(

What really upset me was not so much the injury but instead hearing someone say:" This boy.. haiz.. is terrible, someone should really disciplined him.. he's really terrible!!" My heart really ache hearing someone say my son is terrible.. I wanted to ask him.. how could he be terrible when he's only 16 mths old? It was an accident. I'm not trying to find excuse for what my son did but at this age, playing together could cause accident right? I guess, as a mother, hearing someone say my child is terrible, really hurt.. So for me now is to watch my son well and make sure accidents like this does not happen again..
