Recently, YH has taken to going to office with me on her no-school days. Yesterday was her third visit. So what does she do for the few hours that she’s there? Nothing much really... she reads her book and doodle on our used paper, but most of the time she’s playing games on my iPhone. On one of her earlier visits, one of the bosses actually offered her the spare laptop on seeing her playing on my iPhone. It seems quite boring to me being stuck in the office doing nothing much, so I asked her why does she like to follow me to office? In her words “I get to play iPhone whole day, eat Happy Meal and potatoes chips.” Yeah, games and junk food always work for kids. We have a mini pantry that is stocked with packs of potatoes chips and cheezels which she helps herself to, picking out her favorite flavour.

If you have not brought your little one, there’s still time to make a trip down. Art Garden ends on 1 September 2013.

After being cooped up at home for two days due to hazardous haze level, we took the chance to venture outdoor when the haze level went down to acceptable level last night.

We made a trip to nearby Downtown East for dinner and had planned to catch a movie. Unfortunately, the good seats are taken. Then my girl, YH, spied the Mega Bounce and wanted to have a go. This is the first time that she’s on a bouncer, did she enjoy it? Here’s what she said:

Me: “Did you have fun?”
YH: “Yes!”
Me: “Why didn’t you jump very high?”
YH: “Because it is very scary, can I do it AGAIn??”

The conversation reminds me once again her love for adventure. When she was about 3 yrs old, we brought the kids to Universal Studios as a special treat for her brother’s 5th birthday. We went up the Junior Roller Coaster Ride, first time for both kids. After the ride, her brother was on the verge of tears and mummy dearest was feeling woozy, but she’s all charged up and ready for another ride up on the coaster. Thereafter, she practically wanted to try every single rides in the themed park.

My little Daredevil......

You know your little boy is not so little anymore when you said "I think I should hit the gym while waiting for your swim class to end. I can get some muscles." And he goes "Nooooo, then you'll be all muscles and no boobs, like my PE teacher." "How do you know that she has no boobs?" "It's all flat what. Bet she has 6 pacs underneath." 

"............" 

Ok, girls out there, watch out....
