Multiparenting Cayen & Cayson

Last week , ah pa was helping me charge my  phone and in doing so, the phone vibrated on the bed. This was when cayen happened to be  sleeping on the bed as well. It was quite a shock as he had been sleeping for a while but in his sleep , he suddenly muttered firmly"  不要再讲电話，电话关掉”. Ah pa was very shocked and guilty so he hastily removed the phone.

Well, auntie is the cleaning person who comes to our house every week so before she mops the floor, she would remove his beloved alphabet tiles from the floor. In this instance, he had displaced th...

When Cayen used to make laughing noises in his sleep in his early months,  I always wonder what he could be dreaming of and if he was indeed dreaming. Last night, he said "nana" (for banana) in his sleep and that was because he was refused a banana treat in the evening (cox he already had one in the afternoon). So he thought about it so much that he dreamt about it. No wonder they say 日有所思， 夜有所梦..
