The trainer who was so nice gave me a pair of skates for her to try out at home before I decide... Well she was clinging on to me and anything else for support but she seems to enjoy it... so I did sign her up!!!

New skills
Claudia is always so envious when she sees Evan skating around.... Mummy had signed Evan for a skate camp in Nov.... and seriously thinking of signing up for her too!!! Am I too adventurous? Afterall, she can't really ride a bike steadily yet....

Graduation Concert
Evan had his concert on 30 Oct... It was wonderful!!
My handsome boy!!!
Ang Ku Kweh!!
In order to get a good seat, kiasu Mummy actually went 1 hour earlier!!! hee hee... Claudia was waiting patiently for the concert to begin... My phone is such a good entertainment for her to pass time... haha
Will upload more photos when I receive the professionally taken photos from the school... Time to upgrade my camera!!!!
Evan turned 6!!
My baobei had turned 6!! Finally? or too fast?
As usual, we had a simple family celebration at my mum's place during his lunar birthday... He distributed the cake on his own, the 1st piece is for Claudia... Mummy was waiting for her share but the 2nd piece went to Ah Ma...
When I asked him why, he said he has to give out the cakes to the people he loved most first!!! Mmmm.... meaning Mummy ranked No 3?!?! Oh how sad am I... Luckily Daddy is not around, if not I am very sure I will rank No 4.... haha...
Daddy do not spend as much time with them but he just have that special place in Evan's heart...
On the actual day, he had a mini celebration in the school... Claudia had informed her teacher 1 day earlier that she is not attending school because she need to go for her brother's party... haha... what a smart gal..
Instead of ordering the normal cake, I decided to get cupcakes for him instead... Nice and yummy!!!

Mummy is Speechless
This is a post that I am very relunctant to write. But my heart hurts, why does my lovely Claudia have to suffer this kind of unfairly treatment time after time? She is such a lovable and innocent kid who does not deserve this... especially from someone elderly who should be showering her with love
Scenario 1 (Just happened this evening)
When I walked into the restaurant, I saw Evan seated in between his grandparents while Claudia sat alone on the opposite side. Fine, the seats on her left and right are left for her parents but she gives me such a lonely feeling. Never mind, it's just my feelings.
While we were waiting for our food to be served, they brought Evan away to shop for his birthday present. When Claudia realised that her brother had "disappeaared", she cried for him. Why can't she tag along for the shopping? Why can't she wait till we are done? Come on, the shops are not closing yet! In the end, Mummy forgo her dinner and brought Claudia shopping while Daddy had his dinner alone.
Scenario 2 (1 month ago)
Evan had a new toy and a specific instruction not to share it with his sister. When she was caught playing with the toy, she was told to put it down because the toy is only for Evan and not for her!! Why? All because she spilled a drink!!
Scenario 3 (Years ago)
I can't remember how many times have she waved her hands at a crying Claudia, asking her to leave her alone. Adding a statement "You think I want you? I only want your Gor" followed by a hug and kiss planted on Evan.
" Do not bring her here, bring her to her Ah Ma's place. Just bring Evan over" I heard this again and again, till Claudia stopped whining and crying so often then she is "allowed" to stay there with her brother.
Maybe she was just a 1-2 years old gal then but she can see, hear and feel. How can you blame her when she goes around telling people "N don't love me, she only wants Gor"... how can you blame her when she says she is happier when N is not around?

Heart Pain
Evan's swim lesson was extented to 1 hr 45 min today... how tiring is tat for a 6 year old to swim non stop...
Well he was not doing his strokes properly, He was doing free style with hands while doing breast stroke kicking.. how complicated.. how many people can do that coordination actually? Maybe he was so comfortable with breast stroke that's why he can't coordinate properly with the new style. The coach had to resort to tying his legs with a band while he swim...
I was hoping and hoping that the lesson will end FAST,... though this is not the first time he had punishment during lesson but I was really comtemplating to request coach to release him... His tears, his legs tied up and his tiredness makes my heart pain...

Sun Sand Sentosa
We were at Sentosa on Sunny Sunday!!! It started to rain in the morning and looks like it is going to destroy our outing to Sentosa... After lunch, we decided to take the chance and go ahead....
Ths SUN was there to welcome us!!! We have not been there for a long time.. the IR really bring in the crowd but luckily the beach was not crowded.... We did not stay long at the beach, we chose to walk around the island....
Mummy did not bring any sand toys so they make do with the slurpee cup and lid.... fun for kids can be so simple...

They make my day :)
One of the best things they can do to make my day is to complete their daily homework on their own without my help and nagging :)
Usually Evan only need my help with the Chinese work... He is a very competitive boy and he wants me to start practicing his spelling and ting xie earlier!! This makes me very proud of him...
Claudia's homework is usually colouring or tracing... It is very easy for her but the result of it depends on her mood... Sometimes it will be nicely done but sometimes it will be super messy...

Ready, get set, GO
We went for our 2nd run, POSB Run for Kids on 19 Sep... I think the 1st one was sometime earlier this year but that was just a 200m dash so can''t really remember it...
I am proud that both of them can complete the 1.2km run without much stopping!!! Mummy was all ready to carry Claudia halfway through the run but she was determined to finish it.... She even complained Mummy run too slow!!!! Great job kids!!!
Claudia's concert
Claudia's school had their year-end concert for Nursery on 25 Sept 10.... Oh she was super excited... Mummy was a little late and she cried when we arrived because all her friends were ready with their make-up... oops...
Luckily she was all settled down when it's time to perform!!!
I can't believe my gal is only 3.5 years old!!! She is tall and mature for her age....
