Funny honey

Apart from being perceptive, Cayson’s also very funny sometimes. At a party that day, he took some chips and walked towards Cayen who’s kicking ball.  However, as he couldn’t resist eating the chip, it was finished midway before he could reach Cayen. So he shouted, “ Ah Yen, wait !” And he turned back to take more chips. But once again , as he started walking midway, he found that he has finished his chip again. So he screamed, “ Ah Yen what!” And he u-turned again. The third time round, he decided to wise up and broke into a bit of a run , probably thinking that he should be able to reach Cayen this time. But as he was still munching away, the chip was finished before he could reach.  Today is the day the school started renovation so kids have to move to a temporary new premise. The move must have been tiring or stressful for them . Because Cayen declares he’s sleepy by 8 pm and Cayson announced that 我累了 (note that he speaking mandarin is very rare) at 8.30pm, both way ahead of their

Cayson’s 29 months

I think he’s a very perceptive child. Here’s why: After Cayen was dropped off for his piano lesson today, Cayson turned and asked Ah Po, “ why Cayen can have iPhone, I’m good, why I cannot have iPhone?”  This was because he has been observing that sometimes Cayen gets to have the iPhone to play games. —-  Cayson and Cayen were fighting over the toy dinosaurs. Ah Pa asked Cayen to give in to Cayson, which he did grudgingly.  After Cayson went into his bedroom with Ah Pa, he complained, “Cayen is naughty”  Ah Pa: why is Cayen naughty? He shared the dinosaurs.  Cayson: But he didn’t share, you made him do it.  Whoa, I didn’t think he would know the difference.  —- Ah Gong stopped his car in the carpark and they alighted , but Ah Gong didn’t move.  Cayson would ask, “ Ah Gong, not going home?”  This is because he knows that Ah Gong is a scooting off to another place.  —- We were aware of a kid who bites in school so I asked him about it.  C: H eats people. Me: Did he eat you? C: No, he’s m

Cayen’s many firsts

November was an exciting month as 17th Nov marked his first full blown farewell concert on a big stage, and 9th Nov marked his first primary school orientation. December is starting out equally exciting as he just took his first test ever tonight. I don’t know the results yet so he was so no-nonsense and calm during the test - am so proud of him. Using my untrained ears, I think he did fairly well as there’s no awkward pauses or wrong notes per what I have heard at home when he’s horsing around. Perhaps he works well under pressure. Anyway, fingers crossed, hope he passed his first exam. Anyway, no videos allowed so here’s just a cheeky picture from the day.
