FollowSherilyn and I attended Cass’ kindy concert yesterday morning. The hubs had to be at his kitchen to prepare for a client’s function and Alycia had to stay home for Mandarin tuition. I had put on make-up for Cass at home. At the hall, her teacher painted her face. Cass and her classmates donned on…

Onions Don’t Make Me Cry, They Make Me Laugh LOL!
Yesterday I was peeling and slicing big onions in the kitchen. Cass came into the kitchen to read her story book to me. She’s displayed a great interest in reading lately and has shown a promising improvement 🙂 I told her not to stand too near the chopping board and I said “ONIONS WILL MAKE…
Hair Accessories Galore
With over 1 year of constant nagging and drumming into her head to get ready her school uniform and to lay out her bunch of hair accessories every night, rascal #2 has finally made this a nightly routine. She used to dawdle every morning, by dragging her feet to the cupboard to hunt for her…

Cassandra’s First Written Journal
Monkey see monkey do. Alycia and Sherilyn are required to write a daily journal. This is part of my efforts to help them to improve their writing skill, both in BM and English. Every evening at around 7ish pm, reminders of “Have you written your daily journal?” resonates in the house, without fail. Alycia has…
Little Devil
This little devil gave me yet another heart-stopping moment today, plus two yesterday! Yesterday, she ran out from the kitchen, slipped on the slightly wet floor and almost hit her chin hard on the marble table. She scared the sh*t out of the mil and me! Minutes later, she rolled off the chair and fell…
Cass’ First Foot Massage
The MIL made an appointment for the foot reflexologist to come to our place for a 2-hour foot massage session today and this little rascal was given a free half hour trial session of foot massage! We had imagined that she would run away but to our surprise, she sat still throughout the session without…
Science Subject For 5 Year Old Pre-schoolers
Cass came home from kindy last week telling me that her teacher had instructed the kids from her 5YO class to practise playing around with Microsoft Paint on the computer! This is what pre-schoolers are taught in this high technology day and age. Now, what did we learn in kindy as 5 year olds back…
Exam Season Yet Again
Little Helper
She may be a rascal giving me plenty of hair-pulling moments everyday but when she is good, she can be such a saint who tugs at my heartstrings. Her latest new found skill since last Friday is choosing fruits and veggies. At the night market last Friday, she did a very good job helping me…
4th Anniversary of Cassandra’s Uretheral Reimplantation Surgery
Today marks an important day in the history of Malaysia. It is our country’s 13th General Election, a day where many people cast their votes. I am not going to talk about politics here. I’ve had enough of stuffing myself sick with news on politics for the past one month. Today is the 4th anniversary…
Our Tuesday – 9 April 2013
Today after my ‘refresher driving lesson’ with hubs, I told him that we should avoid having another fattening breakfast. I’ve had enough of pastries and sausages from Ficelle for the past one week and I certainly did not want to eat noodles, rice or any carbs. So after dropping off Cass in school, we stopped…

We have gone through loads of ups and especially downs together and every birthday that she gets to celebrate healthily is an occasion that we ought to rejoice. She already has a birthday celebration plan in her head. Yesterday, this was what she told…

Life Is Never A Bore When You Have Mischievous Kids
I mentioned in my earlier post that in my motherhood journey, I encounter and grapple with problems related to my kids everyday. Almost everyday, I face a new ‘juicy’ issue to jolt me up from the jadedness of being a WFHM. Today, when I picked Cass up from school, I just had a hunch that…
