FollowLately Alycia has been talking gibberish whenever she’s angry with me for forbidding her to do certain things or when her whimps are not met. It’s scary to hear her talk this way. Her thoughts would then seem incoherent as she rambles on and on. Some words are incomprehensible and some of the things she…

Alycia’s Milestone
Alycia can now do letter tracing pretty well. Her strokes and lines are straight and she can write quite fast too. The only thing that she needs improvement in is the order of her strokes. Sometimes she can be quite pigheaded as she doesn’t like to be corrected. When I correct her, she would make…
Really Spooky
She Sure Knows How To Subdue An Angry Heart
I’ve posted before that Sherilyn is really good at subduing an angry soul. Whenever she has incensed me, she will surely make me laugh again with her antics. Her latest tactic is saying out loud “mummy I LOVE YOU” or “mummy I WANT YOU” whenever I scold her, without fail. Tell me, would you still…
Alycia Has Mastered The Mouse
I’ve been reading to the gals from the computer almost everyday for the past 2 weeks. Both the gals have shown great interest in mastering the skill of manoeuvering the mouse and pressing on the keyboard. Whilst Sherilyn has learnt to press the Page Down key to change pages, Alycia has mastered the skill of…
My Maid
Who do you think sculptured these balloons for the gals? It’s my maid! Not only can she perform her housework satisfactorily, she has also mastered some simple plumbing skills, she can perform simple house improvements, she can draw quite well, she can build really cool robots and helicopters from Lego blocks and now she has…
Alycia’s Snacksbox
This is Alycia’s snacksbox. Though her pre-school provides food during snacks time but I don’t like the idea of her feeding on colored cakes, biscuits with cream and color, jellies loaded with sugar and other junks. So I’m willing to sacrifice 15 minutes of my time each morning to make her sandwiches. Yesterday I made…
Offers Again
One of my favorite advertisers finally released some offers early this morning. After about a week of not hearing from them, they finally released some offers. Was so happy to see the offers appearing one after another though I had to wait for 20 minutes for the offers to appear at 5-10 minute intervals. The…
Maid’s Birthday
We celebrated our maid’s 27th birthday last week with a Strawberry Tiramasu cake, complimentary from Shangri-La Hotel. Both my mil and I gave her an ang pow each. As I don’t really fancy cakes, I just ate a tiny slice of the cake whilst Alycia and Sherilyn relished every single bite of the cake, especially…
Quality Time
With Alycia attending pre-school in the morning now, I have more quality time spent with Sherilyn. After Alycia leaves the house, I sometimes have a short morning stroll with Sherilyn before having breakfast together. Instead of my maid feeding her, I now feed her breakfast myself. After breakfast, Sherilyn will demand to be read to.…
Alycia Is A Meat Lover
Alycia my discerning eater loves food. From young, she has always been an easy feeder and has no problem or fuss whenever we fed her porridge. The one food that she hated was cereal (which is the exact opposite of her sister), otherwise, she eats almost everything and has a distinct love for meat of…
Now You See It…. Then It’s Gone
Every Tuesday is 3P’s $1k opp day. Yesterday, I’d seen more than 10 USD50 opps and one USD500 opp but as usual, they were perpetually shaded grey. At around 11pm yesterday, I saw a couple of USD50 opps in white. Woohoo…. I was really excited and quickly clicked on the reserve tab and typed in…
Stewed Chicken
This is another simple yet very tasty chicken dish which requires no frying, another of my mil’s recipe. Even Miss Spity Spat Sherilyn who hates meat loved the chicken! My mil doesn’t have any fixed measurement for the ingredients, she just estimates the ingredients and tastes the sauce as she cooks them. Ingredients : Chicken…
Sherilyn’s Milestone
Sherilyn can now hold a pencil fairly well and today, she wrote the letters ‘E’ and ‘F’ without much difficulties. I was really surprised this morning that she could still remember the order of the strokes, though she had only practised writing the letter ‘E’ once a few days ago. Today is the second time…

Lost Water Tumbler
Yesterday for the first time, Alycia left her water tumbler behind in school. When she got home, I checked her bag and asked her where her tumbler is. Alycia then said “in my bag.” But when she checked the school bag herself and couldn’t find her tumbler, she burst out crying. She was very upset…
