BB's hair cut


I have never brought BB to any salon to have her hair cut as I did it for her since her 4 months old. I don't know whether I did good work or not, but I think may be it is time for a professional to have a nice trim for her.


On the way we headed to the salon, she told me that she wanted to shave out all her hairs as the little boy did from her day care. I told her that she would cry if she found all her hairs had gone. When we arrived to the salon, I told my hairdresser about this. He was shocked. He said the same thing to my daughter.



She used to move a lot when I did the hair cut for her. Therefore, at the night before the hair cut I emphasized to her that she has to sit still when the uncle cuts her hair. In the salon, she behaved very well. I sensed that she was a bit nervous but she liked the process overall.

After the hair cut, I asked her whether she wanted me or the unlce to do it for her. She said that she liked uncle and mommy to do it for her. Great! I love her answer.











A surprised parcel


Last Monday I got a parcel from the mail. I was no cue who sent it to me. Guess what is it?







Ah Ah, it is a Penguin from the movie "Madagascar". I totally forgot that I mailed in a coupon to get a free penguin after we bought the Madagascar 2 with the bonus penguin disc. I thought that it would be a small plush toy but it is much bigger than what I expected. A surprise to us!

When BB saw it, she loved it so much. Certainly, she believed that it belongs to her. Well.., I told her it belongs to mom but mom is willing to give it to her if she likes it. She carries it to anywhere in the house all the time for the whole week. She doesn't allow her brother to sit with her but the penguin while she was writing or coloring...

Mother's day

On Mother's day, BB and I made cookies together as we wanted to give our hand-made cookies to her grandmas and her beloved "mothers". She was very excited as this was her first time making cookies. We spent almost a day to finish our production and delivery.

Happy Mother's day to all mothers.

P.S. we forgot to take pix with her grandma and her aunt (both from dad's side).

Some personal thoughts

After watching this link http://www.cultureu nplugged. com/play/ 1081/Chicken- a-la-Carte that was shared by a friend, I kept thinking the meaning of or the message behind this short video for over a week.
I encourage you to watch it first before reading the following message.


What do you feel after viewing the video?
What messages did the author intended to deliver to the audiences?
- Did the author think that it is a shame that we can't finish our dishes?
- Did the author think that it is a shame that we waste our food while some people have no food to eat?
- Did the author think we should order more food and leave the rest that we cannot consume in the restaurant in order for the poor to get more "delicious" food?
- Did the author think that the reason why the poor didn't have those food because we (the people who can afford to buy the food) ate their food?


For sure, it is a touching story. It reminds me that some people who live in our society have no foods to eat.

Yes, for us, we should say thanks to our God that we can choose what we like to eat and we can eat as much as we want. But we don't have to feel shame/guilty to have "good" foods to eat. For sure we shouldn't waste the foods. But then is it enough to help the poor? There're many ways to help them. E.g. giving healthy foods to the food bank (hey, don't give expired stuff), etc.

Something that was missing in this video is that how come the man had to collect "garbage foods" from the restaurant? Couldn't he even afford to buy some basic/ simple food for his family? I guess the whole story happened in the same country and even in the same local society. Otherwise, the man was not able to collect the "garbage food" from the restaurant and took them home. I know he had quite a few kids needed to be fed. But he still looked like a physically helathy man that he should able to work. If he got a job, he should able to buy some basic foods for the family that he didn't need to collect the "garbage foods". That's what I don't understand. That's something missing behind the scene.
If he got a job, but still couldn't afford the basic needs. Then, I guess the government/society should do something to help them. Like providing education or training to help him getting a better job... If he couldn't get a job because of helping his wife to take care of all the kids (actually he should think about it before planning for having kids. And it seemed that his wife was pregnant again. For many poor countries, the people don't have the birth control concept or they don't have the resources to do birth control ), the government or the community should also provide some helps that he could get back to the work force. I believe that helping the poor is not just to provide foods (it is only a short-term way to help) but to help them to become independent (it is a more long-term way to help them). In nursing, we always mention a word "Empower". To empower someone to become independent is a better way to solve the problem and also to re-build one's self-esteem.

I know it may not apply to some very poor 3rd world countries like Africa. Many people were died of hunger in those areas every day. They certainly need immediate help which is "food and clean water", but it doesn't mean that we should stop our help after feeding them. The next step may be to help finding water sources, to teach them how to grow some plants according to their weather and the land condition, etc...


On one hand, it seems that it is a sad story. But on the other hand, we can see love, caring and feeling of satisfaction in this video. We can see how happy and satisfaction the poor kids were when they started eating the "garbage foods". Their happy smiling faces couldn't be pretended. At that moment, they didn't care what they didn't have, but to enjoy what they had (even though the things were just "garbage" from the view of many people). Same as in the man's family, the kids were excited to have those foods. The father won't feel shame to bring those foods to his family. He even smiled and said grace to God. Even though they were poor, they had love and happiness in their family.
When we say grace to our God every day, is it truly from our heart to say thanks to our God?
It's time to learn not to complain for what we don't have.
To enjoy the Grace that we have!

Yes, there're many ways for us to help the poor. The question is "am I willing to help and what could I contribute?" And one more thing is please respect and love them.

Time to think and also to take action!

My dear friend

My dear friend, I'm very sorry to know that you were facing a very struggling situation and I guess you were getting lost. I remembered that you told me your condition was getting better few months ago. Therefore, I was really shocked when I heard about your recent situation from your mom. I'm really really missing you and worring about you in these 2 days and I even cried for you. I kept praying for you from day to night. May God's mercy, grace and abundant love comfort you. I pray that you will have faith to go through this dark period and see the Light from God.

My dear friend, you are not alone. God, your family and we are with you. We all love you and care about you. Please don't give up yourself. I believe that God will send the angel like the one He sent to Elijah when he was tired and afraid. God will not blame you but to provide the things that you need to strengthen you. Yes, He is our provider. He loves you very very much. Yes, I know you know all about it, too.

My dear friend, I would like to share my favorite song with you. I know you are very familiar with this old song, too. But it is still good to listen to it again.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0hOjYR8UZT8

Take a rest like a baby in the arm of God and be strong again in His Love.
I miss you and love you. Let's face it together.

Sick again

剛剛先好番兩星期,兩寶寶又再病倒了。BB 只是輕微的流鼻水,但EB就如上次一樣發燒,嘔吐,咳咳及勁流鼻水。至慘佢最唔鍾意俾人攪塊面,所以要同佢clean up 鼻水口水時,簡直要同佢搏鬥一番。 佢一見我攞住張tissue,佢就立時"走路"避開,cry n cry,雙手勁推開我。咁啱佢發燒當日我買了一個新的 ear thermometer,估唔到即刻用得著。以往用普通thermometer,佢十分嘅唔喜歡,好難同佢量度體溫,所以便嘗試轉用 ear thermometer。起初佢亦都阻止我,但用多幾次後,佢終於乖乖的順服,總算無買錯嘢。這兩天與他有太多的搏鬥,又唔肯瞓,我應該話佢想瞓但又瞓得唔好,所以我同佢都很辛苦。

同時BB 又扭計。又話佢都病都要食葯,又哭著話細佬食哂佢啲葯。一個就勁鍾意食葯(BB);另一個就好討厭食葯(EB)。當然又要同BB解釋一番,佢仍然扭著要食葯。最後我同佢講,病了唔可以食朱古力,佢立時收了聲,不敢再嘈(事關那天晚上在她扭計之前,我剛給了她一粒朱古力哄她)。

這兩晚不單要經常起身去check 吓EB的體溫;另一方面BB 半夜又叫醒、哭醒,有時天未光,叫我幫佢蓋被(佢其實自己識做,但就鍾意叫人做)。蓋被後半個鐘,佢又話瞓醒了要起身(比平常起床時間足足早了一個鐘)。攪咩呀?攪到我無覺好瞓!有時我倦到不能理佢,便叫佢自己在房內睇書,有時佢睇睇吓又瞓番;有時佢又唱歌又講嘢。個baby monitor 全接收晒佢啲歌聲到我房內,真係人都顛啦!

小記


我好喜歡睇我兩個寶寶瞓覺,有時睇見佢地瞓得咁好,真係好想攬住佢地,kiss 佢地。仲好想佢pinch 佢地的圓面面。不過我知道這樣做,便要承擔後果,所以都只是眼看手勿動,遠遠影張相算吧!


EB 時常想咬嘢,又見佢有咁多牙,所以便買啲baby食嘅餅同cheerios,俾佢試吓。佢啲反應真係好攪笑,又好sweet。

花開了

記得在去年寫下"種花記",現在已經開花了啦!去年九月Bear 與 BB 一起落種子,約在幾天前開花了,現在也已漫漫凋謝。所以趁時候要 BB 與花影張相留念。當日他們的努力,終於有成果,可惜開花的時間很短。不過能夠見到他們的成果,我也為他們感到高興。








今天我們不單止影這些花,我們也趁機影下我們屋苑裡每年一度的櫻花盛況。自從我們在這裡居住開始,我們每一年都影下這些美麗的櫻花。去年細B 還在我的肚裡,今年已經在我的懷抱內。神所創造的一切真的很奇妙。

Baking

Thanks for suggesting egg tarts! But we had made the banana bread yesterday right after the church's baptismal ceremony. This time I had a good helper. One of the reasons I chose to make the banana bread is that BB could participate. This was the first time we did cooking together. She really enjoyed it.

Japanese style cheesecake


I haven't baked any cake or dessert since EB was born. In the past few days I thought that I should bake something for fun. Yesterday I finally baked a simple Japanese style cheesecake. Yum Yum...I tried this recipe once long time ago. This time I tried to make them in small cupcake size rather than one big round shape. But there're only 6. Next time I should double the ingredients in order to make more.
What should I make next? Banana bread? Blueberries cupcakes? Cookies? Egg tarts?...

DVD


I remembered that I wrote something about a DVD called Classical baby in my blog long time ago. This time I would like to recommend another DVD which is from the series of Disney's Little Einsteins. We love it. Since we bought it about 2 weeks ago, BB watched it once everyday. Bear and I love it because it is something related to music, esp. classical music. Through the DVD, it taught about the basic music knowledge (learn to sing, to listen and to follow the beat) and introduced some classical songs. And it also taught you about different places where the 4 main characters travelled.

名字與友人

最近我的好友在 facebook 突然重提佢自己的一個久違了的英文名,還將佢自己在 facebook 的名字暫改回舊英文名,攪攪新意思。這樣弄到很多佢較近十年認識的朋友也不知道她是誰,真攪笑。幸好我還記得她的舊名字。不經不覺我已經認識了她有22年。嘩!咁耐啦!不禁地講一句大家都老了很多,轉變很多啦!她確實是我一位很要好的朋友,縱使我哋並不能時常通電傾訴,但係彼此間的關係是沒有人能取替。在 facebook 裡她問到我以前有冇其他的英文名。可想到在過去廿多年我沒有再改過任何英文名。

其實在小學時,我姑姐曾經幫我改過一個英文名。哈哈,這個名字很出名,到而家仍大有名氣,而且其品牌種類凡多之餘,價錢也不平。估到我個名嗎?就係"Kitty"。當時我姑姐話我咁喜歡 Hello Kitty ,不如就叫"Kitty"啦。當時還小,所以便是但用了"Kitty"作為我的英文名。後來另一個英文老師要求我們各人都要有英文名時,我心想還踮我都並不太鍾意用"Kitty"這名字,不如讓老師幫我改過一個新的名啦。於是她幫我改了 "Helen" (估唔到後來我在 Van 會識到一個好朋友,就是叫 Helen),可是我當時並不太喜歡用這名字,於是我仍用"Kitty"。後來我有幾個小學的好朋友決定一齊改名,於是我哋一齊改名為 "Dorothy"。哈哈,簡直是傻事。有咩理由大家叫同一個名。當然這個名字很快便被踢出局啦!

最後,在某一年的 Summer, 同我由小玩大的朋友仔,她幫我改了一個英文名。當時我並不太喜歡,因為有另一個英文名同這個名字非常接近,卻有很多不好聽的花名。我當然唔想俾人聯想起更多的花名,所以有些婉拒她的好意。不過她堅持這個名字很適合我,又給我解釋。。。我已經唔記得那些的解釋,不過我卻是接受了這名字並用到今時今日,我亦相信這名字會是我往後一生的英文名。最後我點解會用這名字,原因只得一個:這是因為"她"幫我改的名。當時我很重視這一個朋友。她是我的鄰居,她只大我兩個月,我唔記得我哋 exactly 幾多歲開始一齊玩,但肯定我哋幾歲大已經一齊玩,情同姊妹一樣。後來我跟父母搬走了,但每年的夏天,我仍會回去我祖母家放暑假,我哋又會見足整個假期。就在那年的夏天,她為我改了這個名字。不過讀上中學之後,我祖母住的地方要清拆,加上我與她住的地區相隔太遠,所以我們只有靠通信或偶然一個電話來維持我們的關係。早幾年我回港時,也有相約她見面,真的很開心。

講番這個名字,在讀中學時真的有人改花名(不過我都預左)。不過有一次我的英文老師在全班同學面前讚我的英文名,覺得很適合我,還講出名字出處等,當時我十分高興。呀,不禁要讚我的好朋友一句:她真係有遠見啦!隨著日子的過去,現在有時我的病人也讚我這個名字。每次他們欣賞我的名字時,令我又諗起我這位好朋友。唔知在遠方的她,有沒有想起我這個傻朋友呢?

感謝神賜給我這兩個多年的好朋友!其實神又豈只給我兩個朋友咁少,若要數也數不完!

後果嚴重--有感而發

每逄一些朋友尤其是一些長輩級的人,見到我的仔時,就會講同一番的說話:"做咩食奶咀",繼而做同一個行動:"拎走奶咀"。以前對我嘅女係咁,而家對我嘅仔都係咁。
其實我都唔想俾個奶咀佢地,我都唔想佢地咬住奶咀咁醜怪,我都唔想俾人話我唔識做人媽咪,但係若果唔俾奶咀佢地,後果就更嚴重。

可以話細B 食奶咀係我地一手做成的。起初細B 一見奶咀就推走,當我地勉強塞入去,佢就會吐出來。經過很多的嘗試,才能成功使佢食奶咀。點解要這樣做?原因係佢喜歡食手指。要戒除食手指的惡習比起戒除奶咀更難,而且牙醫話食手指會傷害牙齒,所以我地寧願他食奶咀。更大的問題係細B 除了鍾意食手指外,更喜歡將任何見到摸到的東西放進咀裡。每當細B 的奶咀離口,佢所抓住的東西(不論是他腳上的鞋,或是我的手臂,鋪地的mat)不用數秒便到咀裡去,無一幸免。就算我有幾想去保持佢身邊的東西清潔,根本也是不可能。除非天父賜給我多幾對手,隨時預備工具清潔。所以唯有俾奶咀,才可減少他亂放嘢入咀的機會。
大家請見諒吓人地為人父母的苦心啦!唔好見到唔順你眼嘅嘢,就要別人作出犧牲,就要別人遷就你對眼,遷就你的睇法,請先了解事情的真相。記住用奶咀並不是罪!

以下這兩張相片是幾星期前,當細B 的奶咀離口後,這本書的四角即被咬爛(要知道這是一本新的書,開封才過幾天),所以後果嚴重!

Memorize AWANA bible verses

小玩意


上星期五 BB 不用去 AWANA,於是又同她一齊做了一些新的小玩意 "shrink art"。我自己也玩得很開心,尤其是睇見啲圖案一個個在 oven 裡變形及縮細時,真的很得意。

奇想

上星期四又係得我一個看住兩個小朋友(每逢星期四 Bear 都要返choir),所以又要諗活動來打發BB 嘅時間,於是我哋又一齊砌圖。砌了好幾幅圖之後,我突發奇想,要求BB 一齊將所有 盒裝嘅puzzles砌完,然後影相留念。雖然相中只有十幅圖,但實情那晚我哋一齊砌了大概十三、四幅圖。原因係在我有這奇想之前,我哋已經完成了好幾幅圖,然後又拆了,所以又要重新砌過才可影相。那些圖其實對我哋已經沒有甚麼難度,因為已經砌了無數次,但估唔到經過一輪搏命地蹲在地上的砌呀砌,我們都弄得非常的疲倦。而且攪到 BB 遲了瞓覺。下次去為突發嘅奇想勞力時,也要考慮吓時間。。。

Puzzle time


在三月二日,終於開了一盒一百塊的砌圖給BB砌(副puzzle買了好耐)。首先我同佢一齊砌了第一次。第二次她便自己砌,我從旁作小小的引導,她就大概用了 30 分鐘完成了這幅 Hello Kitty 砌圖。之後這幾天她每日也砌一次。
















Stand up

Two days ago, EB stood up by himself by grabbing the bedside rails. Thanks God that we just adjusted the bed from the top down to medium height level in the early of this week. Otherwise, he might fall down.

Read the map



每晚我哋同BB瞓時,都會講Bible Story。自從細B出世後,大部份時候都由Bear講故仔。最幾日當我同BB講故仔時,佢揀了Bible裡的一幅地圖。我同佢講媽媽唔識講地圖,佢堅持話要講。但我都未開口,佢就將那些地方讀了一次給我聽。全部啱哂!
我:你好叻呀!媽媽都唔識。
BB:我識小小啦,daddy 教我啫。
我:你點樣認得嗰D地方?你認字或是認圖晝或是認位置?
BB望住我,唔識答。我諗我問嘅問題太深了。

之後我問Bear教了她多久。他話只講過幾次啫。我心諗只講幾次就識,唔係咁叻呀!我讀了Bible 也不少次,睇Bible嘅地圖也很多,但我也從不能認出以色列地圖上那些地方所在。都唔知係自己蠢,定係佢叻!我諗都係自己蠢啦!
諗番自己讀書時,其實地理係自己最唔鍾意嘅科目之一,但偏偏我又選修了地理,幸而在會考時無肥佬啫。

EB was sitting and playing by himself

細B 在剛過了七個月大便可以自己坐响度玩,睇見佢一日一日的長大,真的很開心。Thank you, God!

痛在我心


前日下午當我抱起細B 準備出門時,他突然嘔奶。在心急的情形下,我將他放在自己的床上,然後衝入洗手間攞毛巾。誰不知只是數秒不夠的時間,"呯"的一聲巨響。細B 大字形的瞓在地上,然後隨來強大悽涼的哭泣聲。嘩好痛好痛呀!簡直是痛在佢身,痛在我心。全是媽媽的錯,實在太魯莽了。即時同佢做檢查,看清楚他有冇傷,同有冇變傻,心裡諗使唔使同佢去照腦,睇吓有冇問題。感謝主,他應該沒有大礙!

我好鍾意你

噚晚我也如常在臨瞓前去睇吓BB,幫她蓋被。她也如常的"par"轉瞓,我相信這是她最鍾意的瞓覺姿勢。當我幫她反轉過來時,她合上眼笑咪咪,然後發開口夢笑住話:"我好鍾意你。"
我心裡諗唔知發夢夢見邊嗰呢?於是我便諗住整鬼佢,我問她:"你鍾意邊嗰呀?"
她便回答:"我鍾意 daddy 媽咪。"當我再同她講嘢時,她就再無應我勒,她已再進入夢鄉。而我的心很甜了。

Driving a boat



We had a trip to Sunshine Coast over the weekend. Thanks God that we had a safe trip back. The road condition wasn't that good due to the heavy snow. During this trip, we visited my dad's client whose family owned a fish farm in one of a small private islands located in Egmont, Sunshine Coast. The only way to get to the client's home is by boat. Therefore, they had to pick up all of us by using 2 boats. On the way back after visiting them, the client's father allowed BB to drive the boat on his lap. BB was very exicted.

EB turned himself over



EB finally turned himself over on his tummy on the 2nd day of his 6 months old at Sunshine Coast.

EB's first try the baby cereal



EB tried the baby cereal on his 6 months old. EB ate well on his first try. BB stayed beside him to watch and help. She was a good helper.

Swiper, no swiping


有一晚我們返教會參加聯團聚會,由於無兒童節目的安排,所以我們便要與BB及細B一同去樓上的nursery room 聚會。在聚會開始到一半時,BB與另一個小朋友都相處得十分好,behaved好好,所以我便可以安心聚會。但後來來了兩姊妹,她們都是大個BB好幾年。她們雖然已超過玩 baby toys的歲數,但她們仍對每一個baby toys有興趣,所以玩個不停,而且越玩越大聲,後來她倆圍在一處組成自己的天地,她們甚至將一些的玩具納入她們的小天地裡,總之越攞越多,當其他人透明。於是BB笑著望住我,指住她們同我講:"Swiper.."。她然後又繼續講:"Swiper, no swipping"。隨後她又再話 : "兩個Swipers,兩個嘅"。我實在也笑了出來。若果大家熟悉 Dora the explorer 系列的影片或書籍,便一定知道這一句說話。

我唔知道她倆有否聽到BB所講的說話,不過我實在覺得BB很有趣,她很清楚發生梗甚麼事情,她的腦筋轉得很快,她知道她們做得不當。希望她講得出,便不要學她們所做的事情啦。

Our new iRobot vacuum cleaner

We finally bought a iRobot vacuum cleaner "Roomba" on last Friday. In fact, it is not a new product to the market as the one that we bought is already the 5th generation. Our friends showed us this kind of vacuum cleaner at least 2 years ago.
In the past I always thought that it was too expensive and we had no excuse to buy it as we had another vacuum cleaner. But recently, I realized that I didn't have time to vacuum the carpet. I think we need this Roomba to help. Therefore, we decided to buy one. Bear reminded me that now we have 5 different sizes vacuum cleaners at home. haha..
After we bought it home, we were very excited to try it.

小孩子的打擊

近兩個月先後都參加了朋友的仔女的生日派對,BB與我們的朋友的仔女都很熟絡,她很喜歡與他們玩,尤其很喜歡與 J哥哥玩,簡直當他是偶像;對C妹妹也很照顧。在參加 J哥哥生日的那一天,BB便很心急,時常問幾時去party,因為她很想與他玩。怎料BB去到party時,J哥哥只是與她講聲hi ,便走開了。因他正要與他年齡相約的另一對姊弟玩game。BB想與他們一起玩,可是她沒有機會,而且她也不懂得玩那些 game。於是BB只有自己找節目,找玩具玩。見到她本滿有喜樂、滿有期待的面容便收起來了。幸而一些Aunties非常好,去陪她玩了一會。之後不知因甚麼事,J哥哥大哭起來(好似是在與那對小姊弟玩時,不小心碰撞到)。BB立即走去吻了他一吓,以安慰他。眼見BB對人的憐愛,我心裡實在很感動,我讚賞她。
那天晚上在床上時,我問她:你今天開心嗎?
BB:開心,我很鍾意J哥哥。不過佢今日無同我玩。那些姊姊,哥哥(她指那對姊弟)又唔同我玩。
我:係喎,他無同你玩,你開心嗎?你仲係鍾意佢咩?
BB:係呀,我好鍾意佢呀!
我:你真係good girl, 對佢咁好。。。。

在C妹妹的生日派對那天,BB又很期待的參加,她想見C妹妹,又想同J哥哥玩。今次當我們去到時J哥哥正與那對小姊弟在樓上玩,並沒有與BB打招呼,之後也沒有與BB玩。BB也只好自己睇書,悶悶似的。有些時候我便諗住去陪她睇書,她話她自己睇,於是我便走開。Party差不多完之前,她不見了。之後在回家之前我帶了她去washroom, 她對我說小朋友驚左她,唔同她玩。我問真啲才知她原來上了樓上去找J哥哥及其他小朋友玩,不過他們拒絕與她玩。我回應她:佢地唔係驚左你,只不過佢地大過你,佢地玩嘅活動你唔識玩,第日等你大個啲就可以同佢地一齊玩。誰知當我們在washroom出嚟時,他們下來找BB,然後指著BB大叫一聲甚麼"turkey attack",便急忙的走。於是BB很唔開心的同他們講 "I'm not a turkey",其後我們也回家了。
在床上,我又問她今天怎樣呀。
BB:唔開心。佢地驚左我,我唔係turkey。
我(攬住她):我知你唔係,佢地只不過玩吓。(然後我給她解釋一番。)
BB:我要打電話俾J哥哥,話俾佢知我唔係turkey。
我:你唔開心,你下次仲去唔去佢屋企呀?
BB:我去。。。
還有一些對話,我已唔記得。

身為父母,睇見自己嘅女在短期內,有這兩次的"小打擊",心裡也感到有點hurt。不過我也相信這是藉得讓她去面對及經歷。若果做父母的只會去保護小孩子,幫他們避開所有 "小打擊",在溫室下長大的小孩,只會變得更脆弱,將來面對更多更大的挑戰時,便很容易崩潰。相信我的角色是要誘導她,在她遇上打擊/傷害/挑戰時,去安慰及鼓勵她正面的向前行,從旁幫她去面對。求主賜我智慧做一個稱職,合神心意的母親。

My smart and sweet BB



Thanks God that BB has grown up a lot!

Tonight I found out that she could count the numbers from 1-100 in English without making any mistake. I don't think I could do it at her age.

And tonite she helped her baby brother to do the prayer before sleep.

Once a while when EB cried, she would tell EB not to be afraid as our Heavenly Father is with us. Yes, she is very sweet.

She loves to go to AWANA now and she enjoys memorize all the bible verses every week.

Recently, she did some good drawings on the magnetic board.

心急、無奈

我個人做事時,尤其是一些事情會影響到其他人,我總是很心急希望所要處理的事要完善又要盡快完工,我最怕事事攪到 last minute。所以有時也很怕與人合作,尤其是那些與自己做事嘅beat不同的人合作(哈哈,神也很有趣,祂賜給我的老公正與我做事嘅beat有些出入,或許是神給我一生的磨練與提醒,heehee..)。我唔想給別人壓力,又唔想不停催促別人,更唔想因為啲事情被拖慢而激心。所以有時寧願自己做多一點功夫,跟緊一點。不過有時真的不是在自己能力控制範圍之內。

就好似今次要處理的 "project"所牽涉的人較多,原本以為也可以放心,因為總算控制到可接納的時間內,可以take action,但今晚收到一個電郵後,心情即刻改變,我的stress level 立即上升。怎麼攪,還未可以take action,無時間啦,又拖多一個星期,deadline 就到啦,點算呀?!有冇諗過除了我哋之外,還有其他人要時間預備架?我雖然還未清楚了解為何會有這樣的發展(為何會收到那個電郵的始末),但我真的感到 有點嘅 frustration!

Walking??



Is he walking? Certainly, he is not.

BB entertained her brother



本來BB只是亂跳亂叫一通,誰知細B會因此大笑一番,所以BB便很高興,更加亂跳亂叫,務求令細佬不停的笑。終於我們也忍不住拍了video。可惜最精彩的部份,我們錯過了,只有留在記憶中。

睇 flier

今晚BB 睇flier,原來係睇 Toysrus 嘅 flier。佢一邊睇一邊就話:"嘩,我鍾意依嗰呢!我又要依嗰果嗰..."
我:果啲玩具唔係俾妳玩架,係大姐姐哥哥玩架!
BB:我鍾意玩具,我鍾意有好多好多嘅玩具。
我:媽媽無錢買咁多嘅玩具喎!
她沒有回應我,只係繼續的話鍾意依嗰果嗰。基本上差不多每一張圖片上的玩具,佢都話鍾意。我也懶得理她,就由她繼續看佢嘅flier。
