5 years old

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...

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.
