Where’s The Tooth Fairy?

Posted on December 2, 2012 by Shireen

It’s been 5 days since Sherilyn shed one of her baby teeth. She had placed her tooth inside a pill plastic bag and left the bag inside the bedroom but day after day, there was no sign of the tooth fairy. She asked me why the tooth fairy hasn’t come to place a dollar under…

Health Freak Girls

Posted on October 31, 2012 by Shireen

A health freak mom will raise health freak kids, naturally. See how rascal #2 prepared her sandwich… She slathered a thick layer of homemade pandan kaya on a slice of homemade wholemeal bread and decorated it with 1/2 slice of cheese and tossed in some organic pumpkin seeds and organic walnut…. unroasted and unsalted nuts…

Little Fashionista

Posted on October 16, 2012October 16, 2012 by Shireen

The little fashionista in her new girly GAP denim jacket from my online store. Stylo moe? She’s such a vain pot, changing cardigans and jackets every 2 days! Sometimes I disallow her as those thick jackets take days to dry after each wash in the machine but she will secretly sneak it into her bag!…

Savings For The Kids’ Tertiary Education

Posted on July 2, 2012July 2, 2012 by Shireen

Sherilyn is now into Grade 2 of the Royal Academy of Dance for ballet. When she first attended ballet lessons, we paid only about RM70 for a once weekly lesson. Then, a few months before the exam, the teacher increased the lessons to twice weekly and the fees was doubled too. Now that she is…

Quirky Kids

Posted on June 26, 2012June 26, 2012 by Shireen

I’ll bet no one has ever thought of drinking soup and the gooey essence inside the pig’s bone marrow with a straw! I’ll just suck it out with my mouth but my artsy fartsy rascal #2 had a better idea! Have I told you before that this rascal also enjoys eating porridge through a straw…

My Little Social Butterfly’s Saturday

Posted on May 19, 2012May 19, 2012 by Shireen

As I am typing this, the clock shows 5 minutes to 10pm and my 7-YO daughter is still out having fun without her daddy and mummy. In fact, this girl has been out the whole afternoon and evening. She went for ballet class in the afternoon and now she is having a whale of a…

Hectic Life For A 7-Year Old

Posted on April 12, 2012April 12, 2012 by Shireen

Wednesdays are always very hectic for Sherilyn. By the time she reaches home from school, it is already way past 2pm. After lunch, shower and lots of dilly dallying (with non-stop naggings from my mil and me for her to hurry up), it is already 4pm. By 5:30pm, she must eat something light for dinner…

Out Of Her Dilly Dallying Habit Now!

Posted on March 30, 2012March 30, 2012 by Shireen

For the past 1 week, rascal #2 has been getting herself ready for school pretty early. Her daily morning daydreaming and dilly dallying have been reduced significantly and I do not need to help wash her up, dress her up or to comb her hair every morning anymore!! And the source of what motivates her…

Of Water Color Painting

Posted on March 28, 2012March 28, 2012 by Shireen

Sherilyn has been struggling to do her Art homework, especially with water color painting ever since she entered P1. According to Sherilyn and Alycia, the Art teacher did not show them the proper way of doing water color painting, i.e. how much paint to use, how much water is needed to dilute the paint, how…

Sherilyn’s Grade 1 Ballet Exam – 2nd Trial

Posted on March 25, 2012 by Shireen

We dedicated half our Saturday yesterday to Sherilyn and accompanied her to the ballet studio for the 2nd trial of her Grade 1 ballet exam. The studio was pretty far from where we stay and the journey itself clocked up to almost an hour, both ways. My childhood friend SF and her daughter Mel car…

My 7-YO Ballerina

Posted on February 26, 2012March 30, 2012 by Shireen

After close to 2 years in baby ballet class, my princess wannabe is finally ready to sit for Grade 1 of the Royal Academy Of Dancing Exam. The first trial ballet exam was held today. One more trial exam and the actual exam will be held in May or June this year. From a weekly…

English For Standard 1

Posted on February 14, 2012March 30, 2012 by Shireen

I got a shock when I saw Sherilyn’s English homework from the Chinese primary school that she goes to. What has happened to the standard of English? How can it be so simple? I could not believe what I had seen. She had done all these when she was in her first two years of…

Never-ending List of Worries

Posted on February 9, 2012February 9, 2012 by Shireen

Yesterday was the first day that Alycia had to stay back after school for compulsory extra curricular activities. Ever since the incident last year where the van driver left her out in school and told me that she did not know where she was upon reaching our condo (GOSH, I almost fainted!!), I have this…

The ‘Dilly Dalliest’ Girl Ever!

Posted on January 12, 2012January 12, 2012 by Shireen

And the award has to go to my #2. I thought she would turn over a new leaf once she starts P1 this year but NO NO NO! On day 1 – 4 Jan 2012 she was fast. She jumped out from bed and finished everything quickly and was ready by 6:30am. After a few…

Bento Set For A Princess Wannabe

Posted on October 14, 2011October 14, 2011 by Shireen

Simple meals can be made to look really appetizing and enticing if you do some ‘touch up’ or ‘make up’ to it, like placing the food in nice bowls, plates and decorating the food. My princess wannabe is one such aesthetic fella. She likes food decorated tastefully and presented to her, like it was fit…

Lunch Box For My Princess Wannabe

Posted on October 12, 2011October 12, 2011 by Shireen

My princess wannabe was in a mega good mood when I let her bring this Hello Kitty lunch box which comes with a matching lunch bag to school. Inside the lunch box was fried rice, home cooked. When she came home, she told me that she walloped every grain of rice there was in the…
