We had a party for you at da gu's condo on your birthday & we invited Lydia & her family, Ern Hui & her family, Siow Ling & her mother, Mag & ah yi. Mommy ordered a mickey and mini theme cake from Baby Sweet Cakes. However, I think this is going to be the last time I order from her as I notice she's getting abit sloppy with the alphabets. It cost mommy RM200 & I had to pick it up from the lady as it was really a last minute decision to have a party. Initially our party suppose to be on the 20th & we're planning to invite your favourite cousin-ni ni jie jie. However, mommy cancelled it as daddy had to attend a wedding dinner and Ni Ni jie jie couldn't come as her mom has to attend some other function. The most important reason was that mommy is actually feeling abit down and hasn't have mood to arrange proper cooked food for our relatives due to several reason. First being the fact that granny has shifted to Ah Yi's house and you have to go to daycare (except Monday & Thursday) after morning class at BB because we need to send didi to da gu's condo. Mommy felt very sad because you don't really like sleeping at the day care. If you don't sleep, you'll feel very tired for the afternoon classes & even more tired to spend extra time with mommy at night. Granny shifted because she wasn't feeling well and ah yi has more time to take care of granny compared to mommy. Mommy has to take care of you and didi.
Today, I went to MA for the parents-teacher meeting. You score 84%. Teacher said you are a dreamer & dislike drawing nor colouring & dislike playing with the toys there. You prefer to pick up a book to read. However, teacher said that you score well and it's fine if you're a dreamer as every child has their own special ability. A dreamer comes with other special ability that non-dreamer don't possess. Mommy felt relieve to hear that. I'm proud of you. You have full mark for listening. That's really amazing for a little dreamer like you. :) Although mommy was there, but you sat at your place and concentrate with your work while mommy talk to the teacher.
Also, I just want to let you know 1 more thing.. you have been grinding your teeth since somewhere around Sept 2011 i.e. last year. I don't know what's the reason. But I'm still trying to figure it out.
You're so caring too. The other day I carried you down from the car to go for Heguru class. You just fell asleep not along ago but then you woke up and immediately told me you can walk by yourself. I asked why & you said you didn't want me to feel tired.
I love you so much...
...this is a diary of special moments that happened in Zhi Ying's life since she was born..

First time drawing your thoughts
Mommy was so happy to see you draw out your thoughts for the first time. You used to say you can't draw and you feel sad. But last night, you drew a girl standing on a stool washing her left hand at the basin. First, you coloured the stool blue. I wasn't sure what they were so I asked you to tell me the story of your drawing. You didn't immediately tell me what was the drawing about. I've guessed that suppose to be our blue colour stool but I wasn't sure and didn't want to say the wrong thing and cause you to loose confidence in drawing. So I persuaded you to tell me. At last, you told me that's you standing on the blue stool washing your hands. I couldn't tell that's the basin and the water tap because they were very tiny. The basin looked like a plate. So I couldn't actually figure out the tap. Anyway, you drew a hole in it later to improvise the picture so that it look more like a basin. Then you wrote there "ZY is washing her hand". I'm not sure whether it was our drawing practices which gain your confidence back or was it Morris Allen's classes drawing session. Anyway, I thought I should jot this down to let you know how happy I am to finally see you draw your thoughts on the paper and colour them.

4 years old & 10 months
Lately, mommy changed your breakfast diet to protein/grain diet or low glecemic index diet as you seemed tired on most of the morning. Mommy searched online found that probably you need a protein diet rather than a vege diet. You've actually been on vege & rice for breakfast for sometime. Mommy called up Bao Bei to check on you & was told that you didn't complain about feeling tired for the past few weeks. This proves that the protein/grain diet works better for you. I also notice that you bring back Bao Bei cards more after changing your diet. I'm glad I found out this mistake earlier and helped you to feel better in class.
On most morning, your breakfast consist of few of the below:
Oat - 2 table spoon
Orange juice (sometimes)
Egg -half/hard boil ( used to be everyday but now occasionally)
Pear - 1/2 (small)
Apple - 1/2 (small)
Seaweed -3-6 pieces (those rectangular shape)
Cheese (you always request for cheese)
Banana - half (montel banana) - occasionally
Kiwi - 1 (most of the mornings)
Granola bar from Kellogs - 1 (occasionally as it's abit heaty & too sweet)
Yogurt (occasionally)
Milk powder (occasionally)
Mommy is always in a hurry every morning to make sure you have a good breakfast so that you won't feel tired at Bao Bei, hence, better concentration & might get more cards which would make you feel very happy in the end. Then mommy will rushed to work without make-up but well dressed. Mommy only puts on make up in the car when the traffic light turns red.
Every morning, mommy carries didi & we go downstairs together. Mommy puts didi on the baby high chair and you'd help to watch & play with him.Whenever he stands up, you shout for mommy to take didi. With your help, mommy can make breakfast for you & didi. Kakak usually is still in the bathroom.
You're very good at reading now and you love to read. You're also good at eating your supplements when mommy tells you to. You are a brave girl, even when the supplement tastes bitter. You are also able to brush your teeth by yourself & shower yourself. After doing your big business in the toilet, you are able to wipe yourself clean. You're a fast learner. Last night mommy told you daddy's phone number & slowly helped you to memorise it. You are able to memorise the number in 5 minutes. That's amazing. You can also write chinese character without looking at it after writting the same character just like 5-10 times. You are a picky eater but you will eat alot if you like a particular food. For example, you love to go Sushi King or you call it SK. You can eat 4 unagi slice sushis, 1 chawan mushi(steam egg), half bowl of noodle, half plate of green peas.
At night, mommy accompanies you to sleep. We talk & play. You usually wants to read first before you sleep. Not just 1 book, but about 4-8 books most of the time, or more. Sometimes we play memory games, sometimes mandala, sometimes, just guessing image in my mind, sometimes telling stories. You always take a long time before you can go to sleep. But mommy understands that you miss mommy.
You are very good at iPhone games. Those fast games which mommy couldn't handle, you can played it so well. Your reflex is amazing.
You have scalp problem since couple of months before and only lately daddy took you to the doctor. I believe it's due to insufficient amount of shampoo at grandparents place since you only wash your hair once a day. Why once a day? It's because it's cold in the morning & cold at night. You might catch a cold so mommy just wipe your face & body after and before bed. So mommy took you to the saloon for the first time to cut your hair really short. You look extremely cute with your short hair seem wrapping up your cheek.
You know, couple of times, you were bitten by Sue Lynn. There was a time, she bit you on your cheek. A really big bite. It happened when she was hugging you all over and out of a sudden she decided to bite you on your cheek, Sue Lynn's kakak said. Mommy's was at work. Anyway, luckily there's no scare. Then the second day, she scratched you on your face when kakak tried to get her away from you. She's just 2.5 months old. But you know what, you said although Sue Lynn is so naughty, you still love her very much. You're such an angel. Since young, you never hit other children. Even when you have 2 pieces of your favourite food left, you'd share with other children. Mommy always tells you that when Sue Lynn grows up, she'll be a wonderful girl too, just like you & she'll say sorry for bitting jie jie when she was little cos she didn't know that's wrong. She just loves jie jie too much. She thought that's call playing with jie jie. She'll take good care of jie jie just like how you take care of her.
At Bao Bei, teacher said you're very talkative, your concentration is average but has very good character. Teacher said you can take good care of other younger children. When you don't get to take cards home when Sue Yin can, you stay positive and comfort yourself by saying that because Sue Yin is mei mei, you let her take the card first.
You're still attending Heguru classes with Magdelene. For the mandala session, you always draw the big outer picture and Mag usually draws the details in the picture. If we put both together, it's a perfect picture. Although the shapes aren't quite right, but it's about the same as the picture so it's good enough.
You're still going to Vital Years with Sue Yin now just that the classes now are only on Tuesday & Thursday night. As for Bao Bei, it's every morning 1.5 hours. You just started Enopi & Art class last 2 months. Classes are on Saturday & Sunday. Fees incurred every month as below:
Bao Bei - RM410
Vital Years - RM300
Enopi - RM160
Art Class -RM100
Heguru -RM450
Total - RM1420
Nowadays, you are better at conveying to me what happened during the day. I love these updates rather than your normal favourite answer "I don't know".
