Dramatic Sports Day 2011 Keatkeat is my drama-sports-man today.
So dramatic till I cannot find a word to describe his race. *laugh* I guess, its better to let the video do the talking…
This was how the telematch started off… His first team mate raced off (2nd from the right)…
sprained his left pinky
sprained his right ankle
abrasion on his right knee
Mummy: “How do you feel after the race?” Keatkeat: “I am a little mad with myself, because I fell down and my team mates scolded me.”
Mummy: “What did they say?” Keatkeat: “Zac Loh, why didn’t you run faster?”
Mummy: “Did they scold you for dropping the ball?” Keatkeat: “No, they didn’t scold me, they scolded the one who threw the ball to me and not passing the ball properly.”
Mummy: “So you are a little mad with yourself , anything else?” Keatkeat: “I am sad too because I waited for one year to get a gold medal. Last year, I got a silver medal and I told myself that I must get a gold medal in Primary 2. But now I didn’t get 1st, I feel very sad. Luckily the medal is still gold colour, so weird because when I get 3rd, the medal is still gold.”
Mummy: *laugh* “So your dream came true! You wanted a gold medal and you’ve GOT your GOLD MEDAL!” *laugh* Keatkeat: *small laugh* “Yeah Yeah yeah yeah…”
Mummy: “Keatkeat, you finished the race, you did not give up. You fell down and you picked yourself up and continued… that’s the most important thing…” and I gave him an enormous bear hug!
Keatkeat’s 8th birthday was great in every way, his many wishes came true this year. Though his birthday is on 2nd of November every year, the celebration actually starts on 1st November. This year, his birthday celebration was even extended to 6th November. *smile*
1st November lunch at Pizza Hut: Keatkeat loves the Hawaiian Pizza at Pizza Hut, but Allan and I are not Pizza Hut fans, so because of that my boys hardly get to eat at Pizza Hut. But because it was his pre-birthday celebration, we went but only the boys ate. Oh well, our purpose is to make him happy, but it does not mean we need to ‘sacrifice‘ (don’t get me wrong. There is nothing wrong with Pizza Hut, just that we prefer to go elsewhere for our pizzas). Allan and I still get to eat a hearty noodles meal at the hawker center. *smile* So everyone was happy. *thumbs up*
1st November dinner at Tony Romas: IT WAS MAGICAL!!! Keatkeat has seen magicians performed in the past, but for the first time, Keatkeat PARTICIPATED in it. It felt like as if we had hired a personal Magician for Keatkeat’s birthday celebration. *Super Grin*
And the birthday boy gets to keep the ‘magical poker card‘ as a birthday gift. *smile*
12 Midnight Cake Cutting: He missed his choo-choo train cake. So we ordered it again. The previous time he had that choo-choo train cake was on his 5th Birthday. He said: “This time, I want a different design, but the toy train must be on my cake.”
Then it was unwrapping presents time after gobbling down his cake….

He is going Crazy over 'Gogos', so I bought him the Album to start his collection.

Keatkeat has always wanted a gun for his birthday ever since his bro had one. So his dream came true this year. Thank you Yi-Bak and Yi-Bak-Leong
2nd November: A day in Malaysia Well, it was his dream to celebrate his birthday overseas. To him, Malaysia is good enough. After school, we went straight to our neighbour-country, a day of shopping fun and ended it at his latest favourite Seafood Restaurant: “Tian Lai Seafood Restaurant in Johor Bahru”
If you remember the picture of the note above, Keatkeat’s future uncle-in-law would be giving him an ice-cream workshop as a birthday gift on 6th November. Thus will do a separate post on that later….
Happy 8th Birthday Keatkeat!
***Sincere apologies for the blurry photos. I am still struggling playing with Photobucket.
Today, my eldest niece turns 11, yet she is not able to enjoy herself to the fullest on this day because of her final year examination.
In fact, she could not enjoy her birthday to the fullest for a few years now, ever since she started Primary School. So word of caution to those who wants to conceive, do your calculations right, so that your child’s birth date will not fall on exam period. *wink*
Celebration happened last Saturday with this invitation:

I nearly missed doing this blog post just like what happened last year. There wasn’t any ‘Happy 3rd Blogoversary’ post at all, because I have totally forgotten. *laugh* Was trying to keep up with a new time schedule last year, when Keatkeat started his Primary School life for the first time.
Yes, it was a mess last year!
This year, what’s my excuses? *laugh*
I am sick. The symptoms reminded me of my 13days of hospitalisation. Read here.
Today, feeling a little better, I decided to do a short post just to congratulate this humble little corner of mine ‘All About Your Child‘ a
Happy 4th Blogoversary!
It almost could not make it this far because of server issue with the service provider… but all is well now, so no point talking about the negative things. Always looking forward and staying happy is my motto!
