Sherilyn Can Finally Cycle
Sherilyn can finally reach the pedals of her tricycle. She’s been trying in vain for the last one year or so to reach the pedals but her legs were not long enough. Lase week, I was so surprised to see that she could finally reach the pedals and cycle on her own without being pushed. She’s so…
Cute Quotes
Sherilyn’s speech is improving everyday. She is now very expressive and loves parroting what we say. She even knows how to scold Alycia when Alycia whines and cries for no reason. Sometimes when Alycia is being naughty and gets scoldings from me, Sherilyn will say this to Alycia “you stubborn girl, stop crying. No reason…
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…
Sherilyn Can Write
This morning, I gave Sherilyn a letter tracing workbook and taught her to write. At first, she just squiggled and kept scribbling the letter ‘O’ on the pages. I held her hand and guided her to write a few letters but she didn’t want me to help her. She wanted to show off her independence…

Educational Toy
Sherilyn is good with this toy. During breakfast yesterday, she fixed the shapes puzzle in under 5 minutes without referring to the map. It looks easy to fix but can be quite tricky. Now, I’ve got a new toy to keep Sherilyn occupied whilst I work on my computer as she can spend close to…
Expert In Swallowing Medicine
Sherilyn is now an expert in swallowing her medicine. She used to puke at the sight of medicine whenever she was ill but now, she drinks them like drinking water…. easy peasy, no hassle, no fussing, no crying, no puking (but sometimes she still does puke) BUT there must be at least a slice of…
