Both kids were happy to see me. Arden actually screamed. Later, Arden told me “Mumi, I am so happy to see you.”

anZel actually started telling us story tonight. He was able to retell several pages of Curious George goes to a custome party. It took a bit of an effort to encourage him. Once he got a hang of it, he really liked and wouldn’t stop. Some day, perhaps he can retell the story in his own words. At the moment, he is memorizing the story word by word.

Upon seeing the three little bears sitting on chairs..

Arden said “Me, big brother and little bro.”
Mum: Where is your little brother?
Arden pointing at the three little bears…”Me, big brother and little bro.”

p.s. NO expansion in the family…

Arden: No. Grandma Helen will take me to the park!

~~~~~~
anZel came to our bed in the crack of dawn and said to me “Mummy, I was lonely last night. And I thought of you.”

~~~~~~
Arden firmly told me that she was heart-broken the other day because I didn’t let her get her way.

~~~~~~
Arden was coughing badly in the evening and eventually went to sleep. When I went into the bedroom to check both children, anZel said “Arden was coughing. Could you check to see if she threw up?”

~~~~~~
On our way to school, anZel saw someone riding his bike with training wheels on the road and quickly pointed it out to me.
anZel: MUM! Look at that guy. He has no training wheels on.
mum: That’s right. When you grow up, you won’t need them either. When I was little, I had to use them as well. Then I learned how to ride without them.
anZel (getting very animated): When I grow up and I can ride without training wheels on, I will take Arden to school. Then I will ride to school.

When I told her that it was wet and should be worn…
mum: Arden, your tights are wet. You can’t wear them.
Arden (crying her eyes out): I want
mum: But it’s soaking wet…
Arden: I want to wear it.
mum: It’s not going to be comfortable and you might catch a cold.
Arden: I want
mum: Do you want to try to put on the wet tights? (feeling absolutely sure that she would say no…)
Arden: Yes…(nodding with tears bursting out of her eyes)
mum: Are you sure?
Arden: Yes
Putting on the wet tights…she wore it for a good 5 minutes and I had to take it off. Then She threw herself on the floor like a wet noodle.

The bunny in the book appears to have only one hand.
Arden: Where is the bunny’s hand? Maybe it’s hiding it.

Arden: Why is brother sleeping?
