As Mummy is clearing her annual leave, she will try to take it on Friday so that she can bring me back home. So it will seems like it is back to the time when she is on Maternity leave.. As usual she will bring me out to Jurong point to have our hi-tea & shopping.. Yippee.. There would be more of such time ahead..
It another few months and I am already coming to 3 years old! Remember what is Mummy’s resolution for me at 3? That is to be able to speak in clear proper sentences. Although I have improved substantially, Mummy still think there is room for improvements. My pronunciation is still not very accurate, and when Mummy try to correct me and it is too tough for me to pronounce I will try to switch topic. Mummy call that 逃避, but I call it 婉转.
There was once Ah Ma was telling Mummy that I tried to teach her in English.. Here’s the conversation:
Ah Ma: 这个是什么？
Me: Lion
Ah Ma: Oh.. Lai on.. huh. .(Ah Ma being not very proficient in english)
Me: 看嘴.. Lion.. (pointing to my mouth)
Ah Ma: 喔，你还会教我啊！
Mummy always tell me to look at her mouth when she teaches me, now I uses the same method on Ah Ma instead.. Ah Ma almost laugh till she tear..
Sometimes Mummy wonders if my late speech development is attributed to multi-language environment that I am in. As you might be aware, Mummy converse in English with me, Daddy in Hokkien and Ah Ma in Mandarin. Anyway, I still have another 4 months to achieve your goals Mummy… Just wait patiently ya!
However Mummy is very pleased that I am fully toilet trained in the day time. Which means that I can go diaperless even during nap time! This also translate to passing the cost to didi instead.
In addition, I am able to wear shoes, wear clothes, brush teeth, wash hands & mouth all on my own as well. As for eating, I still make a mess but at least I am willing to try on my own. But there would be times, I still prefer to be fed.
Oh and not forgetting, all my teeth are already fully erupted. The 2nd molar being the furthest at the back it is not easily detected.
