Today while I was helping Cass to shower, she suddenly remembered something that transpired in kindy in the morning during English lesson. Cass – mummy, do you know teacher A gave me a STAR and a “VERY GOOD” in my reading today!? Me – really? *with face all perked up though I was almost going…
Yesterday, our dearest long-time friend – K and her boyfriend brought Alycia and Sherilyn to watch Frozen at Mid Valley Megamall. After lunch at Little Penang Cafe, while the four of them spent 2 hours at the cinema, Cass and I had our one-to-one time together. From a far, Cass spotted a carousel and bugged…
On top of the daily therapy exercises on the fitball, trampoline, gripping exercise and pelvic floor exercise, Cass went for her first electromagnetic acupuncture session on Tuesday to treat her bladder issue. Though I have read that acupuncture and electromagnetic acupuncture can be effective in treating weak bladder issues, I am not sure if it…
As the final school term is fast drawing to an end, with just 2 more school days to go, the much awaited report cards came back for tiger mommy to review and sign! Sherilyn brought back her report card yesterday. She also helped to pick up Alycia’s report card from the teacher. Alycia has been…
Yesterday evening, Cass insisted on bringing her favorite ‘baby’ with her when I fetched Sherilyn back from the enrichment centre. Her ‘baby’ even shared her safety belt with her in the car. In another year’s time when Cass will be over 6 years old, I know Cass would have probably outgrown her babyish and childish…
Sherilyn 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…
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…
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…
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…
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…
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…
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…
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…
