Rules for Staying Sane
1. Relax (it's ok if ur kids are noisy and messy)
2. No one is perfect
3. Know what you are good at (eg, some parents are good with physical games, others with reading, so know your strengths)
4. Almost any rule can be broken occasionally (don't sweat the small stuff)
5. Don't try to do everything (ie don't send the kid to every class)
6. You don't hv to follow every piece of advice you get (inclu this one)
7. It's normal to want to escape
8.You're allowed to hide from your kids (literally go and hide)
9.Parents are people too (hv ur own hobbies, we need a life separate from the kids)
10.Don't ignore your relationship with your partner

Leave - forced leave - so boh hua leh... unless ppl go on vacation...

Hi Hong,
Her wound fully heal but the scars see liao very "gek sim"
Hi Chris and Stylo,
Ally has her first loose tooth, it is the bottom front tooth. I think take few weeks or few months to fall out..
We are quite suprised she will be hitting that milestone so early lor.
It kind of makes me sad because she has the most beautiful smile with all straight teeth... LOL!!
Anyway, she is so anxious for the tooth fairy to come.."pengsan"

Chris,
Yalor, i think too early also...
I googled and found out that last time kids has their loose teeth between 7-9 but nowaday kids has loose teeth betweeen 4-7...
Think something to do with the foods they eat nowaday..
Hong,
Dont think the scar will goes off, to me damn obvious now.
Luckily below her chin, as long as she didnt head up wont see it...
I didnt see any new tooth erupting, mother in law suspected cause by the 2 accidents. But Ally didnt complaint during the accidents lor..

Morning.
Stylobb,
Cape No 7 was not too bad. Oni thing is the plot is not focused, there are a few other sub-plots going on at the same time. Will be good if you understand Hokkien though, cos a lot of the script are in Hokkien.
Noif,
CY's teeth still intact too.

Hb was showing me the book, in smaller print it says 'building an affair-proof marriage'... he said he didn't notice the print...haha...we were both laughing... but I said I guess the principles are the same to protect a marriage.
noif
Whether the milestone is reached early, I feel you shud bring her to dentist... cos jesse's one ever told me it's not good if milk teeth falls out now, it may become abyss.. wl be major problem cos the gap is there.
jesse bottom left tooth had decayed, if we had left it any longer, he wud lose it, in the end the specialist put a silver crown over it to save it.
trans
I will be on leave. High tea is fine, I was actually about to suggest. It's jesse's and charlene's b/day..hehe but I don't think I'm doing anything in the daytime...
chris
Root canal is major problem leh....
Not sure about cloud9, there are 1-2 maternity shops at Paragon....
hong
Just watched SATC on DVD last nite... not too bad.
Actually I feel it's best to hv braces to set the teeth well, once teeth are straight and ok, there will be v little problem so long one brushes regularly.
Imagine the horrible nurses and dentists used to laugh at my crooked teeth. Only my present one is v nice. Eversince I had my teeth done, always go check-up and no problem.

Attitude Rules
11. Love is not enough (balance with other aspects: discipline, values, healthy lifestyle, etc)
12. Every recipe needs different ingredients (each child is different)
13. Look pleased to see them
14. Treat your child with respect (teach them by example.. respect them)
15. Enjoy their company
16. Being tidy isn't as important as you think
17. Good parenting is calculated risk taking (they have to learn from their lessons. See how high the stake is.)
18. Keep your worries to yourself (reassure them and give them confidence. I like this one: if ur child is going out to play or to somewhere, say "Have a good time!" not "Be careful..." )
19. See things from their point of view (we always think we know what is best for them, but stimes we don't.)
20. Parenting is not a competitive sport (it does not matter if your friend's kid walked faster, or spoke earlier, or is a good eater while yours fuss.)

Chris,
if it bleed then it can be quite serious but since u are pregnant, i dun think the dentist can do much to u. The mouthwash cld be a temporary solution to u. Did the dentist prescribe the deep green mouthwash?
Stylo,
Wat i SATC?
Trans,
No, no plan to take leave on 2 Jan. If high tea is confirm then I can take a day leave.
