Guessed....

Jayden is now at Primary 4 of his Yamaha Music Course. Reading of notes is always quite difficult for him. Every now and then, teacher Nancy would get them all to sit on the floor and she will randomly point at some notes on the board the the children will have to read them.

Teacher Nancy: Jayden ...what is this note?


Jayden : (Confidently) SO

That night at home:

Viki : Jayden, today in class, when you were asked to read the note "SO"...did you really know that it was "SO" or was it a guess?

Jayden started giggling non stop...he rolled over on the bed and laughed and laughed.

Jayden : Guessed it!!

Smashed and not smashy

Ashley is very fond of using the word "peoples" and I have been correcting her quite frequently . I would say "people" and not "peoples".

The other day in the car, I was trying to drive, the kids were just talking non stop, I was trying to answer my phone etc. Then Ashley said something and to which I had to reply and accidentally said "smashy"

Ashley : Mama, you cannot use "smashy". You must say "smashed".

Viki : Oh! Ok . Sorry..

Ashley : Just like evertime when you tell me that I cannot say "peoples" you know!!

Will I marry MJ?



Jayden : Mama, why are you talking about Michael Jackson all the time?

Viki : Because I love him.

Ashley : You love Michael Jackson?

Viki : Yes, very much.

Ashley : But you are married to papa.

Viki : Yes, I am

Ashley : If you didn't marry papa, will you marry Michael Jackson?

Go Up

The other day, on the way home, in the car, when we reached a set of traffic lights..

Ashley : Mom,why are we stopping?

Viki : Because the traffic lights are red.

Ashley : I think you can go

Viki : No, I can't. The arrow shows red.

Ashley : But the arrow is pointing up and not in front. It only means you cannot go up to the sky!!!!

Finger Print Drawing

This is finger print drawing of a tiger done by Jayden in school today..


From straight to curly...

I had my hair blown straight two days ago. Today, back to the norm, I washed my own hair and while I was walking down the stair way, Jayden noticed and said

"Mom!!!! How did your curls come back?!!!!"
