Feeling down

Feeling very down this morning after reading Charmaine's blog. Confirmed HAMA positive. Don't know who I can talk to, feel so depressed the whole journey in the train. Even think I should stop reading Charmaine's blog as it really affects my emotion. My day will go very happy whenever I read she is doing well with her treatment. My heart sank when I know she is suffering.

My mind just keep on rolling with all these nonsense. Start thinking what if this happened to my own kid?? Why should I bring my kid to this world and let them suffer?? I know I was not thinking right...

Dear Lord, I know life is full of obstacles and YOU are testing on us. While YOU are testing on us, please also give us strengths to fight. She is just a little girl who still has long journey to explore in her life. I am sure YOUR love will make things smoother eventually. Love you, Lord.

And now when I am writing, I know I can't stop reading Charmaine's blog. I won't have a peaceful mind each day without knowing how is she. She is just a stranger to me, but my heart goes to her. I guess this is so called 母性的天质吧!

p/s: I also need strength in daily life, still not doing well as a wife and mother. Feel so lousy :(

Daddy over mommy!

Usually daddy will leave home early in morning for work, but this week daddy is on course. So this was what happened this morning....

6:55am: Mommy woke Jazzel up. Princess still 赖床 (as usual)

7:00am: Jazzel saw daddy still at home. Without calling mommy first, she said "Daddy!!!"(can tell she was surprised to see daddy at home)

7:03am: Mommy picked Jazzel up from babycot
Mommy: Good morning Jazzel, can you give mommy a kiss?
Instead of usual morning kiss to mommy, she leaned forward to kiss daddy! (okie, fine!)

7:05am: Mommy changed diaper for Jazzel, but daddy took over (cut queue!)

7:10am: Mommy going to comb Jazzel's hair, but she ran away and want daddy to comb for her (Fine!)

While waiting for nanny to pick her up, she asked daddy and mommy to play with her. This was the ONLY time in this morning that she prefers both of us at the same time.

Conclusion: Daddy is over mommy today! (for the first time)

p/s: of coz when mommy scolding Jazzel, daddy is definitely over mommy at that moment. Am always the 黑脸 :(

Jazzel's vocab

Many people around has been asking me "When you going to send Jazzel to playgroup?". To me, I just want her to enjoy her childhood instead of stressed her so much. Looking at current education system in Singapore, I am more firm with my decision. Although playground is just to spend 2-3 hours, mainly playing and mix with other kids. But I am not keen still.

As the nanny has 2 kids at home, so I am not worried that Jazzel cannot mix around with others. Her character is quite friendly with other neighbours' kids as well. Come to the learning part, the nanny has been teaching her many things. This is something I really feel so greatful. Jazzel is also picking up new things very fast.

Her vocab:

1. Family Members:
Mama (mainly refer to the nanny), daddy, mommy, ah ma, gor gor, jie jie, 大姨, 姨丈,
爷爷(cantonese), 嬷嬷(cantonese), 姑姑, auntie, uncle.

2. Greetings:
- 安 (when i said Good Morning or Good Night to her, this is what she replied)
- Hi
- Bye
- Love you and 爱你
- Hello (when answer to phone)
- Ok

3. Body Parts:
Eyes, Ears, Nose, mouth, hair, hands, legs (English version learn from H5, Chinese version from the song 泥娃娃 & taught by nanny)

4. Others:
Milk, biscuit, sweet, Drink (she refers to water), bird, dog, ball, shoes, house, car, hat, flower, tree, etc.

5. Alphabets:
A, B, C, D, ...P, S, T,.. she will sing along when I play the song ABC

6. Numbers:
1 - 10 (either left out some numbers or not in sequence)

My prayers to the God is to make Jazzel a healthy and cheerful person. A healthy and cheerful person then can persue all the things she wants in her life. Thanks be to God.

HappyBee & HappyPrawn's Birthday Party!!!!

Awesome! I had a great idea this year for my birthday. Told dd am going to throw a birthday party for myself and sis. Brilliant! DD is 100% agreed and started with our shopping for the party. We got very "stylo" hats which really made me excited. Told dd must have lots and lots of balloon. On the day, dd really "blow" up 50 balloon and deco around the house. Feel so touched and excited like a small kid who is having birthday party.

We have everything being set up, what about food?

Another great idea! Told sis we must have Crab Feast for the party. Thanks to dearest brother-in-laws, we had famous chilli crabs, blackpepper crabs, satays and also the 爱心sesame oil fried bee hoon from mom. What about desserts? Dearest BIL has brought us the durian which is much better than 猫山王。Although everyone is 100% full, but still find some space to stuck this in. So when everyone is 150% full, we have only 5% allowance for birthday cake :S

This is the best birthday party I ever had since the one I had when I was 9. A small little party with 心爱的家人 which make everyone happy. But got scolded from mom coz I sent her invitation card by addressing her as "Madam Yap". I told her coz she is my VIP mah...hahhaaaa

Party is not over without birthday present.
Thanks sis for the Esprit bag and designer watch.
Thanks dd for Longchamp bags.

爷爷Birthday

Birthday celebration can be just simple, not necessary to have dinner at high class restaurant. It's the thoughts from all children or even grandchildren to spend time together as one big family. I feels this is what father-in-law was thinking on his birthday.
