A quiet and peaceful Xmas Eve...

The kids are asleep..
I am ready for bed but feeling wide awake.. with a tummy full of ham, turkey, yummy cake and all - thanks to Ah Kim's fabulous cooking and hospitality...
Listening to classical music and blogging..

With the snowy bear that arrived this evening to keep me company on this "silent" night..

Everything is peaceful, and I am glad that the torrential rain that has been going on for this whole day has stopped..

The after smell of rain is calming and nostalgic..
exactly like autumn...

Anxious Xuan?

This morning I drop the kids off at school for their Xmas party, and while I was chatting with teacher on Xuan's adjustment, I saw Xuan loitering behind, fingering with the buttons on his tee, as if he was feeling as bit anxious, looking at teacher and I as we conversed, as if knowing that teacher and I are discussing about him.

That is a lovely image in my mind.. this little boy looking insecure for the first time..
Teacher mentioned that he was doing fine, some days better than others but overall no issue with the concept of coming to school..

He really loves going to school. And since he started with the 3 hourly session,he has been talking alot more, much of which are still gibberish, but more single words are emerging, so that is progress I think..

Conneisseur En?

My mum related this highly interesing account for me earlier.
He said that En was watching the Little Nonya trailer on getting viewers to visit its webpage - the one which had Jeanette Aw, Joanne Peh and Qi Yi Wu.

My mum said that En told her that "She (Jeanette Aw) looked like mummy, so pretty."
:O

then my mum teased him and asked him about Joanne Peh when she appeared, whether she look like mummy, he said "No, not pretty"

Fwah.. he very discerning hor for his age. Still can say who is pretty..
Is that the Scorpio charm or what... Ho Ho Ho..
I think kids are so adorable when they are young and start to speak, they talk about the most amusing things lor! All these little anecdotes I must write down, and perhaps one day I can publish a little book of laughs!

MERRY XMAS TO ALL!! May Peace and Joy be With all!!
