Angeline,
Hugs hugs… Think C is trying to get used to having a mei mei at home. Don’t worry too much… you must rest and confine well during this periods. Would it help if you could tell her that you will be angry with her whenever she throws tantrum? And when you are angry, you will ignore or punish her? I started verbalizing my anger to her when she was at the peak of her terrible two earlier on in the year. It works. These days, I would ask her if she wants me to be angry with her? She will says, ‘no, I dun want mummy to be angry with qiqi.’ Then I will asked her how must she behaved? She will reply, ‘Qiqi cannot cry, cannot throw tantrums, cannot be rude. Must share things, keep things and must be patient.’ Usually, I will have such session with her before I left the house and she does keeps to her promise. At times, I will just ask her what will happen if she breaks our promise. She will reply ‘qiqi stands at notti corner, mummy upset will ignore qiqi’. Think she knows the consequences and that’s why mellowed down a lot…
BTW, do call before you go down to see Dr. Lim. Tuesday, Thursday and Saturday (I think) will be in East Shore Hospital. Monday, Wednesday, Friday at Mt Alvernia but no more afternoon clinics liao.
MsPiggy,
Really happy news!! Happy for you! Jia you jia you!
Lyn,
She just recovered from stomach flu last week. Her mucus came back two days ago but noticed it is a milder version … Bringing her down for a flu jab tomorrow. Next appt is on 7 October then we will know what we have to do. Other than that, she is okay… getting very talkative now, going around discipline others, singing songs, making up own songs, forever making things and reading books and doing a lot of cleaning up the house for me! We are still trying to solve her moses codes though. She has been ranting like 8 4 12, 4 8 16… and some weird numerical combinations lately. Hubby said she could be doing sums at times but none of us teaches her… so it is a case of whatever will be will be for her. Noticed that is very fascinated on using opposites terms lately. I.e., ‘the purple bus is small, red bus is big … or the stem is short … the branch is long’
She is starting MIM in October… very happy that this is finally going ahead for her. I have been asking her lately if she wanted to pick up piano or violin. She replied violin on most occasions… so called up this pro musique school and they have agreed to hold a trial class to assess her cos most of their children are 3 years old… so will see if it works. KM coming to an end soon…
Peng,
I saw it in Kiddy Palace and Mothercare…
Happy chatting! Have to drive my bullet train now!
