<font color="0000ff">JJmom,

Stepping on the giant ang ku kueh is a Hokkien practice, it symbolise the child will be stepping on a smooth and great life ahead.

[vanilla_pod_2]

hi mousebb - have u given ur older boy supplements? there are some which i think rather good...to build his immune system esp since he started school? haha boys lah...everytime also want bao bao... my son last night crawled to me t bao bao, i carry him, he wanted down, put him down want bao bao...this went on like 5 times...i ask him - aiyo what u want..bao or down?

 

[bigflamingo]

XY,

hehehe..i find your post kinda funny. Lucky you did baby dance before hubby went fishing not after. He might have smelt too fishy...haha

 

[vanilla_pod_2]

hi buffy - hope cate will recover soon...

hi blur - sayang ur little girl too...

 

[matsu]

<font color="119911">bluey,

Yeah! Thanks dear!

I guess something along tat line too but want to b more sure then it's more meaningful to follow the tradition practice mah

Ha! &amp; I m right! It's a hokkien practice (easy guess since it's ang ku kueh) &amp; to think my fil's a hokkien, serve my mil right for saying such nasty thing abt others' practices, even though she &amp; i r both cantonese =P</font>

 

[pig_pig]

<font color="aa00aa">Jjmom
Not bcos I have improved but I have already mentally prepared myself on that day. The boy needs to learn and overcome this on his own. Altho he is my baobei but he cannot always be my boy. He must grow up! After 1mth in school, he still cry when I send him to school every morning. He made me so heartache when he kept calling "mama mama" when he see I leave with meimei. But then once I leave liao, he would immediately stopped crying and mix around with his group. He only wants attention lah.</font>

 

[forest]

whitepaper,
kekekekekek.... u never know!! *wink wink*

mousebb,
aiyo.. hope wx will be alright!!

vanilla,
my boy is just like yrs... cant decide if he wants up or down! and sometimes, if he sees my dad, he'll want my dad to carry, but he'll turn his head and when he sees me, wants me to carry again... n it can continue again n again!! *faint*

bigflamingo,
WAH!! ur back must be aching!!

blur,
hope ur gal recovers soon too!!

 

[lilbluey]

<font color="aa00aa">vanilla
How to give my boy supplement when i already having problems when giving him medicine? Each time when he takes the medicine, I need to put the medicine in the HL strawberry milk otherwise he wont drink. I dont want him to have too much fresh milk cos I scared he would have stomach upset. How? Any suggestion? His school is giving the kids fish oil in the morning and he refused to take that!</font>
