A Sweet Gift From A Sweet Teacher from Church

After visiting Alexis’ church for a month or so, I longed to go back to my previous church (sunday school) and kept pestering my parents and stating my preference. And indeed, I enjoyed myself very much today when I went back. As I was slightly late, worship has already begun. Teacher C was leading the worship and when she saw me stepping in, she called my name immediately and beckon me to come to the front to join in the worship. My, this act of hers makes me feel so welcomed and belonged. =) After that, we had our usual story telling and activity. And Teacher C gave all the kids a CNY gift (see picture above).

Upon opening up, it contained little goodies that a kid loves: raisins, sweets, chocolates etc. Teacher C is really so sweet. Thank God for teachers like her.

p/s: Alas, I’m turning 4 years old this year so i’ll be in another class after the cny. Pray that i’ll enjoy it as much as the present one.

A Gift for Je t’aime

Happy 5 Month Old Je t’aime on the 4th of Feb 2020.

When shopping with mummy and Je t’aime, I saw this caterpillar toy that my friend Asher had and I told mummy that I want to buy that as a gift to Je t’aime. Mummy suggested that she share with me as it costs $39.90. My reply to mummy was it’s okay and even told mummy to buy another toy from ELC for Je t’aime. Told you before that I love Je t’aime. =)

27th Jan 2010

Mummy was trying hard to open Je t’aime’s mouth wide enough to take a picture.

Recently Je t’aime likes to put things into her mouth (unlike me when I was young) and she would suck her fingers and play with saliva etc.

Aha!! On the 27th of Jan 2010, mummy discovered  Je t’aime’s 1st tooth popping out. How exciting!! She has grown from a newborn to almost 5 months old. A few days later, Je t’aime’s 2nd tooth was spotted by mummy again. =) Time to brush your teeth, Je t’aime.

Prayers

21 jan 2010

When having my shower before bedtime, I told mummy that I want to give my $ to everyone in the world.

After my bedtime routines, during bedtime prayer, my prayer is ,”God, thank you for my cute soft toys, daddy, mummy and Je t’aime. I pray that the children in Haiti will have new mummy and daddy. In Jesus’ Name I pray Amen.”

Note: I learnt about Haiti from the day the devastating earthquake happened. Mummy read me the news and taught me a little bit about earthquake during our home-school sessions. Daddy shown me the newspaper article and told me the plight of the victims especially those of the children who had lost both their parents. Thus that was what prompted me to pray innocently to God to give the children new daddy and mummy.

What surprised mummy was that I remembered to pray for Haiti after stopping for around a week since I last prayed for them.

Honey Stars

On the 22th of Jan 2010, there’s no bread for breakfast (due to mummy’s neglience) thus she gave me yogurt with fruits and a cup of honey stars. As that was the last cup of yogurt and honey stars cereal, mummy had to go hungry. When she casually mentioned to me that she had no breakfast, I had already finished my yogurt with fruits and what was left were the few honey stars cereal (shown above). Without hesitation, I gave mummy the cup and told her it’s for her. Mummy was surprised. To check my heart, she asked me was it because I’m full. I replied, “No, it’s for you. Because you have nothing to eat for breakfast.” =)

Hollywood Dinos

 

Alexis and I love dinosaurs! So we got together to go for the Hollywood Dinosaurs and with us came Je t’aime and Ambrose. =)

Reaching out to touch Triceratops’ horns.

We were so blessed. Standard Chartered was having an event (I think) and they had goodies bag for their staff. When we stepped foot inside the hollywood dinos, the staff approached us and handed us their last 3 goodies bags that were extras. Wow… can you believe it!!! The above pic shows what’s in the goodies bag and you multiply that by 3 and that’s what we received from them.

I love to touch the dinosaurs. They are bigger than my toys at home. What a great hands-on ‘experience’. lol. I know Theizinosaurus by its name because I have the toy at home.  

This is the famous T-Rex that almost everyone knows about. =p

Je t’aime and Ambrose are so brave. They didn’t show any signs of fear even in this scary cave that is dark and with sound effects.

This is not a flying dinosaur nor is it a bird. It is a pterosaur and its name is Quetzalcoatlus.

Styracosaurus looks like Triceratops but it’s not.

Mummy lifted me onto this Euoplocephalus. It’s so cool but ouch… my butt is ‘burning’. It’s hot under the sun.

Taking a picture with Je t’aime near Ceratosaurus.

Feeding Giganotosaurus with my orea biscuit.

Though very tired, Je t’aime still managed a smile for the camera. She must be thinking what’s all those big creatures. Haha!!

Ended our trip watching the black swan at the entrance of the Bird Park. A very fulfilling day as I can see so many of my beloved dinosaurs. I even told mummy that I want to go to the Natural Museums overseas to look at those dinosaurs fossils. That’s how fascinated I am with dinosaurs. =)

J&J

Time flies! Sweet Je t’aime is already 4 months old and she is able to sit on the Bumbo seat without any aid.

Now that she can sit, there’s a whole new ‘world’ and toys for her to play and explore instead of just lying on her back. =)

After my ‘home-school’, I proceeded to join  Je t’aime and teach her how to play while mummy prepared lunch. I am mummy’s good little helper! =)

Hopscotch

Mummy finally carried out this physical activity cum game – Hopscotch at home though it had been lingering in her mind to do it since weeks ago.

Fun yet strenuous activity coz both mummy and I were prespiring after the game. lol. Hmm… mummy’s note to herself: Need more excercise. Haha!

Schooling for Jireh

It was only late last year that mummy called up Kindergartens to enquire about vacancies for me (N2) because I have been saying that I want to go to school. As it’s such a last minute attempt, I was placed on waiting list. Lo and behold, in mid -dec, 2 kindergartens called up mummy and said that they had vacancies for me. When mummy asked me again about school, I said ‘No’ to my parents’ surprise. Both kindergartens are quite good and relatively near my new house but after considering all factors, my parents rejected both offers. Mainly coz they respect my decision and feels that there’s no need to rush me to school as I’m still young (turning 4 end June 2010).

Thus, the decision to ‘home-school’ me at the start of 2010! We have been progressing well, doing writing, Maths, Chinese, Spanish, practising on the keyboard almost daily and not forgetting doing devotions. Mummy believes that knowing the Word of God is more important than abc and 123.

This ‘home-school’ idea is a good one for mummy & me as it keeps me occupied (doing work assigned by mummy) while she is busy with Je t’aime (be it feeding, bathing or changing her diaper).

Is Je t’aime A Whale?

4 month old Je t’aime likes to ’spout’ saliva whenever she has something to ’say’. Eg, when she’s tired and wants to sleep or when she has motion in diaper and wants us to change her diaper for her. Very cute little girl!! =)
