All About Your Child

Yesterday was school holiday because of Deepavali (a festival celebrated by Hindus). We were in the mood to celebrate too, for a different reason though.

So for the first time, we bought a kite which cost more than $1. *giggle* We have been buying kites that are of poor quality but still fly-able. Yesterday, we decided to invest in ‘Big Bird’ (kids’ choice).

Our spirit was as sunny as the weather, taking turns to wear Allan’s sunglasses, we tried to fly the kite….

It didn’t even lift off the ground for more than 5 seconds and the string broke.*faint*

In the end, the kids had more fun chasing each other with the kite….

We’ll be back again, for sure, with a better string…

Since, kite flying didn’t work out, the water play definitely did. As usual, the kids had splashing great fun at OUR favourite hangout Marina Barrage.

11th October:

As usual, it was in-laws’ day. This time it was more fun. As the end of the year is nearing, my BIL needed to start being a postman again. Delivering his flyers to  companies to solicit orders for his greeting cards, calendars, organisers and year-end Dinner & Dance door gifts.

Instead of staying in that ‘big‘ house, all of us went with him. So kids and adults went, except my FIL and my grouchy MIL. We thought it was just one of her mood swings.

Later, on our way back, did we realise her lunar calendar birthday was on15th! And this year, no one mentioned about celebrating for her!!! That explained the black face!

It was a last minute recall by my 1st SIL. *phew* So we bought a cake for her. Hey hey hey, she was an easy-to-please rooster, BIG SMILES came the minute she saw the cake box. *wink*

18th October:

“ShenShen (Auntie), I’d bought something for you. I saw this Little Twin Stars Colouring Book. I know you like Little Twin Stars very much. So when I saw it, I think of you and bought it for you.” said my 2nd niece, who is 24 years younger than me.

AAaaaawwwww……

If my poor memory didn’t fail me, this is her 3rd Little Twin Stars gift for me. First was stickers, then key chains and now a colouring book. YES! I’m a ‘Little Twin Stars’ collector. Loved it since I was 5 years old.

My eldest niece decided to have a colouring day yesterday. So I joined in the fun. But when I started to colour, they stopped! *Laugh* Maybe I should not have started at all.

The kids were STARING at My Colouring…

Well, they gave me 100 points for my colouring work *giggle*.

Thank you, Chidren… Thank you…

Allan said it looked as if it was printed. AAaaaawwww…. I take that as a complement. *Big Smile*

Would You Have Thought that It Was Printed too, If I Didn’t Tell You That I Coloured This???
