I am a sexy school girl

Wow! Sexy School Girl! So cute! 

Today, I enjoy playing pretend about going to school. It’s such fun! But, I don’t want to wake up so early and go to school every morning. I want to stay at home!

I cried again this morning.

Liz:”I don’t want to go to school.” *Woo…Woo……*

Mummy:”Oh, girl. Don’t cry anymore. You need to go to school everyday. That’s your work.”

Liz:”Today got no school, mummy.”

Mummy:”Oh, Liz. Quickly brush your teeth and get up to the car. You have been really naughty. I think you become Elizabeth lazy bone now.”

Liz:”I want to go walk walk.”

Mummy:”No more walk walk today. Cause you get up late and wasting all the time on crying and throwing tantrum. That’s it! Mummy won’t pampered you anymore. Mummy never really force you to do anything. But, schooling is the only thing you must do everyday. You already grown up. Stop crying. You must learn to follow certain rules and regulation now. Do things that you might not like, but you just need to do it willingly for your own good. ” *Mummy raised up my voice and starring at you at the same time*

Wow! She is truly angry this time. Better don’t challenge her. I kept very quiet and stopped crying. LOL!

You know that’s not safe, don’t you?

Recently, you always like to lie down on the sofa and watch TV. I think that’s the process of growing up. You just started to get lazy, isn’t it? LOL! Sit up, baby! Sit up!

Alright, mummy!Wow! you really sit up. Good girl. But after a while……

How about that? You will always have new idea, don’t you?

Mummy:”Is that so fun?”

Liz:”Yes. It’s very fun.”

Mummy:”But, you know that’s not safe, don’t you?”

Liz:”It’s ok, mum.”

That’s challenging! But, don’t do that please, baby. Also, lying down while watching TV is going to destroy your vision. Wearing glasses is nothing like wearing the safety glasses too. You just can’t take it out and put it aside after you have finished your job. Once you are shortsighted, the glasses will have to follow you for life unless you want to take the risk to go for laser treatment.  :(

I think you should say excuse me

We were at the pasar malam (night market) about 8pm just now. As we passed by a baby girl…

Liz:”Mummy! I think you knocked her. “

Mummy:”Did I? But, I didn’t feel it.”

Liz:”Ya! You knocked her. “

Mummy:”Ok. Sorry, baby.”

You get silent for a while, then…

Liz:”I think you should say excuse me to her.”

Mummy:” Oh! Ya. Mummy is kind of rude this time, right? When we knocked on someone, we should always say sorry or excuse me, right?”

 Liz:”Ya!”

Mummy:”I will remember this next time. I promised. Thanks for your advice, baby.”

Hahahahaha…… Cute aye? Very polite and very clever! I like it! Good girl.

However, the heavy rain just stopped. We were all wet as we tried to get into the car, which was few minutes walk away. Unbrella seems useless as the rain was too heavy. But, you still insist that you like raining. You said, you like to see the water flowing everywhere while raining. LOL!

Mummy is back

Mummy was resting in the room as I am sick and tired. So, I leave you to granny and kak Sue.

Then, you ran into the room……

Liz:” Mummy, I want to watch TV. And, don’t say not too long, ok?”

Mummy:”What?”

Immediately, you ran out of the room and out of my sight. Happy, aye?

It’s time to get back to your flash cards, cooking stuffs, drawing, tracing the alphabets and so on. Mummy is back. I have regain my energy. No more sitting in front of the TV whole day long.

I am sure you will still enjoy yourself walking around the house, hanging a bag on your shoulder, then pretend that you are shopping, paying and buying things. Sometimes, you will include calculator. And, the calculator is more like the cashier machine to you. Er… Looks like you have missed out the barcode scanner, baby! Hahahaha……

Come out!

Mummy:” We will wait until you are stronger then only we go to school, ok?”

Liz nod nod.

Mummy:” We also stop going to music class and right brain class. May be 2 to 3 weeks. So that you can have proper rest.”

Liz:” No! I want to go drawing and story and music class, ok?”

Mummy:” You mean you want to continue music and right brain class is it?”

Liz nod nod. Mummy smiles. Amazing! Mummy was so grateful as she showed her dedication to all the extra lessons. So what did she do everyday? Eat, sleep, play, read, paint, draw and watch DVDs or TV cartoons. Quite balance, aye?

Yeah… But, she practically chased a girl who is trying to play in the play house with her away. She was shouting at her. So loud! Extremely rude! But, that’s a public playground in Queensbay Mall, girl? Also, the “Jie Jie’s” daddy is just right there watching.

Liz:” Mummy! Mummy! Jie Jie come out! Come out! Come out!”

“Stop shouting! Stop crying! This is shopping mall, ok? You are not at home. Stop chasing Jie Jie away! This play house is not yours. Learn to make friends! Share share, ok?”

She just keep shouting :” Come Out! Come out!”

Gosh! Immediately, mummy was breathless! Speechless! And, deep in my thoughts: “Daddy! Help!” So, mummy called daddy. And, leave all the mess to daddy. Hehe……

Well, is this my girl? *This is so… Ridiculous!*

And, only school with lots of school and classmates can help. LOL!

By the way, this shameful scene happened on last Sunday.

Miracle happened on the 14th day

Unforgettable… Unforgettable……

hYou might ask what’s so unforgettable? It’s my girl’s first time in uniform!

And once she put on this magic uniform, she stop crying. I wondered how. But, it just happened. So unbelievable! May it because she was touched. As mummy try to look into her eyes and keep hugging her, showing 2 thumbs up last night, while trying to convince her to become a brave girl who will never cry in school? So, she finally decided to be as brave as Bumble Bee. Yes! She loves TRANSFORMER! Ha!

Or may it because the uniform makes her feels as the same group with her friends in school. Sense of belonging I mean. Or it just simply means ” I like the uniform”. Hehe…..

Anyway, mummy was so touched. Tears nearly burst out just because of this simple occasion. Cause it really means so big to mummy. May be all the while mummy appeared to be so cruel. Just keep sending her to school even though she sheds tears.

The truth is… mummy is not cruel at all. Not as tough as it seems too. Mummy actually feels so sorry and upset, each and every time sees her crying. So worried! But, I have to pretend nothing big and just be persistent. As that’s the only way to help little Elizabeth understands that there is always something we need to obey even though we don’t really like it. Also, she just have to learn to be independent.

And, you did it! You did it great! Mummy is so proud of you, darling! And, you really look great wearing the uniform. So pretty! Just keep up with that sweet smile. Love you!

Only some Movie Trailers

Since May, she was trained to live without TV. Of course, we will still watch a movie together once in a while. It’s just another family time.

Anyway, the training is quite success. She never ask for TV in the afternoon anymore. She will only spend less than an hour in front of the computer for some movie trailers and phonics programs. Yes! Movie trailers is a good choice to switch her from watching too much TV. As the trailers normally will last less than 3 minutes. Creative huh? Hahaha……

And, I realized there are also fantastic free learning programs for toddlers online. All of all, thanks to the internet. As we can buy books, food, fashion, almost everything, even ceiling fans online.

Also, thanks to your cooperation, baby! Mummy is so proud of you.

No more TV

“She has to stop watching TV. Once toddlers are addicted to TV, it’s very hard for them to concentrate in their studies after 6 years old.”

That’s the comment mummy get from most experienced early childhood specialist. Alright! Mummy is not taking the risk anymore. Busy cutting down her TV time. You will have more TV time after 6 years old. Mummy promised!

In this case, little Elizabeth has to go back to school in June. The timing should be right now. As this little girl is hunger for friends now. Most importantly, nursery has good preparation for everyday activities compared to your home sweet home. Also, it’s good join your peers and learn some team work.

Sorry, Daddy.

It’s Friday again. We used to visit the bookshop every Friday. But, that was months ago. Obviously, this home education plan has failed. Hahaha……

But, we can start it all over again. At least, we will do it today. And, mummy is going to make an inquiry about the programs for 2 years old in “Vital Years” too. In fact, sending her to school and all the other learning programs actually help in discipline her. Of course, at the same time she will learn useful new knowledge.

Mummy don’t mean to be strict. But, at least she must learn to be cooperative, independent, productive, responsive, patient, alert, friendly and polite. ( Wow! Is that too much for a baby? LOL!) Of course, something has to be done at home too. And, mummy was so glad to see her sincerely apologized to her daddy a few days ago.

She will always say thank you when we get something for her. And, there is no problem at all to hear her saying “sorry” when she drop something on the floor or did something wrong unintentionally. However, that was the first time she apologized for the fault which she purposely did it.

Mummy: “Liz, how can you hit your daddy so hard on the face? That’s hurt. And, very rude. Say sorry.”

Little Lizzy immediately show her long, grumpy face and roll her eyes on mummy.

Mummy: ” Say sorry!”

Liz: “No.”

Mummy:” Why not? You should say sorry cause you hurt daddy. Say sorry now. Mummy loves you.”

This little cheeky totally ignored it. Then, started to play with daddy and keep laughing.

Daddy: ” Say sorry.”

Waa……. immediately she cried out loud.

She stopped within minutes and start playing with daddy again.

Mummy: ” Liz, see… Daddy loves you so much. He always play with you and never get mad with you. Why don’t you say sorry for hurting him? Mummy will be proud of you, if you say sorry for what you did just now.”

Then, she sit still, thinking quietly for a while before she looked into her daddy’s eyes.

Out of the sudden, we heard the word: “Sorry, daddy.”  came out of her mouth.

That was amazing! Mummy and daddy were clapping. Frankly, we were so touched. Well done, Elizabeth!

Mimi, playground

For the past 2 weeks, daddy and mummy were busy shopping. Well, Elizabeth will get even more excited when she saw the playground or kiddie rides in the mall. Frankly, playground is her heaven now.

Whenever we started the car, this little playful will asked: “Where are we going?”

No matter what mummy’s answer is, she will replied: “Mimi, playground”. Hahaha……

So, she had a wonderful time in Queensbay mall last week.

However, she got such a bad experience at Tesco tonight. There were big bullies all over the playground. She was pushed, blocked, and quarantined by other kids. Poor daddy got so angry. But, this little princess just don’t mind. She was kicking, struggling and crying when daddy carried her away from the playground. What can mummy say?

Liz really behaved so well among the little ones. Mummy and daddy is so proud of her. But, she can be quite fierce among the family members. She will shout at her granny, scratch her daddy and slap her great granny, when she get mad. Oh….looks like you still need a little improvement, my dear. Hehe……

I got Punished

My fever is only around 38 degree yesterday. Save mom from lots of worries, I knew. Thus, she even went to the market to buy vegetables. And, spend time in settling the auto insurance quotes. Then, drive straight away to the post office to claim the goverment reimbursement for petrol.

But, she insisted that I need swapping when she was back. I cried! I shouted! I kicked and struggled! Immediately, I got punished from being tantrum. Mom put me at one corner in the room. Then, just keep swapping wihtout concerning my terrible temper.

Innitially, I cried louder. And, keep shouting for “kakak”. Slowly, I cried softer. Finally, I stopped. And, I surrendered to the swapping.

The good news is… I have no more fever now. And, I am going to Tesco later. Let’s shopping! Hehe…

Mommy will never beat Elizabeth. As I think that’s torturing and hurtful. But, she definitely needs some minor punishment like this, setting her up at a corner and just let her cry. At least she can learn that she had did something wrong.

Daddy! Please don’t get mad with mommy, ok? LOL!

Terribly Tantrum

Oh! My new hair style. Mummy did it. With this hair style, I look exactly like daddy. Either like daddy or mummy, I am still pretty. That’s what mummy said.

“But, stop shouting and crying, Elizabeth! Enough!”

“I will start shouting loud and crying if you don’t obey!” That’s little Elizabeth command.

Since this morning, she has been crying and shouting, about every 20 to 30 minutes once. Besides, one moment she is stacking these wooden dolls happily, lining them up too. The next moment, she is throwing them just because she can’t put them back together!

Mummy stopped her, immediately “Waaaa……”. She is crying and shouting loud again! How am I going to discipline her? Out of a sudden, she got such bad temper. It all begins this week. What am I going to do?

By the way, she cried for daddy. She shouted: ” D! D!” and even pick up mummy’s mobile phone and called: “D! D! ” Don’t expect daddy to “save” you!

Oh… how about daddy taking care of Elizabeth in this Raya Holiday and Mummy just pack my luggage, buy ticket, travel insurance and leave for a vacation? Oh Gosh! Mummy really need to escape if you continue your kicking, struggling, shouting, crying, rolling on the floor, and pulling kakak’s hair!

Anyone? Some advises on how to discipline this tantrum baby?

Elizabeth wants coins

My girl is interested with coins more than paper money. May be it’s more visible. Daddy always place the coins on mummy’s dressing table whenever he is at home. And, Elizabeth will try her best to reach them.

She will ask mummy to get her onto the bed. As the dressing table is placing side by side to the bed, she will lean on the table side as she climb up the bed. Then, she start looking for coins.

She knows that she is not allowed to pick up the coins. As mummy insists that coins are dirty. Still, she will stretch her hand out to reach the coins if she sees them. Toddlers just won’t follow instruction, don’t they?

May be daddy should put his remaining coins in some other places. Hide it. As she won’t look for it, if it is not seen. Mummy just want to make sure that she won’t fall from the bed again because of a few pennies.

Mummy is interested in coins too. But, not these pennies. I like US Mint Coins. That’s precious! Valuable!

Stop Roaring

Elizabeth is getting very fierce since last week. She will “roar” like tiger or lion when she gets mad. Mummy hates that! That’s irritating.

Obviously, mummy can see that she is a hot tempered type. Mummy is worried. But, what can mummy do to “tame” her? Anyone has any good suggestion?

Somehow, mummy must first stop “kakak” from roaring at her. Didn’t she understand that roaring back to Elizabeth whenever she did it first will make things worst? That will make Elizabeth think that it’s ok to roar like this. LOL!

Both “kakak” and Elizabeth! Stop roaring!

Don’t forget your cigarretes

Elizabeth learn so fast these days. She is kind of quick sometimes. Show her once, she might not perform immediately. But, it’s in her mind. Usually, she will give mummy, daddy or granny a big surprise. She will do it when we are not expecting it.

After all, you will never expect your 1 year old girl to bring your pack of cigarettes together with the lighter for you when you are about to walk out of the main door, don’t you? That’s what Elizabeth did to daddy.

Daddy is a smoker. And, he is trying so hard to avoid smoking in front of our little princess. But still, she knows that daddy will bring along his cigarettes and lighter everywhere he goes.

In this case, mummy is worried that she might learn how to smoke in the future. May be it’s time for daddy to consider drug rehabilitation!

Just draw

Elizabeth loves pen these days. She can hold a pen nicely. Once the pen is on her hand, he will start drawing. Thus, mummy taught her to draw on papers or books. Otherwise, she will draw on other things.

I got a pen and paper now. Where should I settle down to write?

Don’t disturb me, mummy! I am busy writing! LOL!

Standing too long. A bit tired! Er… May be I can rest against the pole and keep writing. Oh! That’s so comfortable. Keep working. Don’t stop! Just like mummy and daddy!

Luckily, she still don’t know how to operate this “mechanical pen”. And, mummy never show her too. So, everything in the house is still save. She still draw nothing on the paper. And, she can neither draw anything on mummy’s bed.

Oh! Poor girl! Forgive me, darling! But, it’s better to be this way. There are still many things you need to learn. Just forget about pen operation first, ok?

In the car

I can hardly sit still in the car. I will demand to sit in the front seat with mummy and I will try my best to drive together with daddy too. Somehow, I will stay with “kakak” or granny at the back seats if I can’t go to the front.

In this case, I will take down the sunshades. It blocks my vision. I enjoy the views outside the car. There are so many things to see! hahaha…

Now, I learn to open the window. It’s easy cause I just pressed on one of the button on the armrest, then it will scroll down automatically. However, daddy never allow me to do that.

Oh, Dad! Please… Once the window is open, I can feel the air or touch the rain with both of my hands out, touch the ventshades, leave my head out and have a clearer look of everything out there.

“No way! Just sit down and stop touching all the buttons including those that control the sound system!” *Daddy Shouting with the both eyes rolling up*

Lovely Bugs

I have bought a few “gold bug” pocket watches from Hong Kong as I like it so much. I think it’s striking and cute. I am thinking Elizabeth will like it too. And, it’s suitable for other kids as well.

Since young I like bugs so much. I called them “lady birds”. I wonder if my girl will like them too just like me?

Anyway, hopefully she is satisfied with “this bug”.

Just imagine if she ask for this Chopard lady’s LADY BUG happy sport limited edition in the future, I guess I will ask her to buy herself. Or else she will have to go to her daddy.

Somehow, nowadays most parents will try their best to provide the best to their kids if they can afford. Me and hubby have the same opinion too. But at the same time, we will discipline Elizabeth in terms of spending in the future. We don’t want her to be spoiled. At least she has to be smart enough to balance her spendings and earnings.

I am too fat

Now mummy thinks I am too fat. Mummy is busy finding out what’s wrong with my diet. Am I eating too much? Anyway, I don’t even start taking meat. I am only taking soup or porridge that cook with meat. So, may be it’s Bonmil.

Anyway, it’s a bit difficult for baby Elizabeth to slim down as she is just a toddler. If we adults gain weight, we may have many options to slim down including taking diet pills. However, it is not suitable for toddler. And, It ain’t easy to train her to exercise everyday either.

In fact, she walks in the house all the long. I think she is having adequate exercise. So, it’s pretty obvious that she has over ate.

Do we really need the rod?

I guess caning kids had never been the culture of my family. Even as early as my grandfather, he never cane my mum. And, of course, my mum never cane me as well. However, we still have cane in the house. But, that doesn’t mean we have to really cane our kids. In fact, the cane is mostly used to frighten the dog.

I will give you a good example why we shouldn’t cane our children. My hubby has been cane by her mum when he was a boy. And, he practically tell me every now and then that he will never do that to his girl. And, as for me, I feel proud of my mum every time when people told me they’ve been cane by their parents during their young days.

Just ask yourself a simple question before you use the cane, if you believe canning can solve the problem.

” Do you like people to cane you?”

“If your answer is no. Then, do you still expect your kids to forgive you for canning them?”

I believe there are so many other ways to discipline our kids. It is not necessary to use cane. I still strongly believe that our kids will appreciate it so much as they grow up, if you never cane them. At least, I did.

I guess that’s it. That’s what I want to share here. Thanks to Judy Chow and shoppingmum.

So, let’s see what these mummies have got to say?
