Butterfly Pea Flowers



Our trips to Malacca have always been the highlight of my children's lives. Each time I need the children to behave, I just have to simply promise them a trip down south to visit their favourite Granduncle. Then for the whole week leading up to the trip, they will eat, practise piano, do their homework, brush their teeth...all without any complaints.

This time, they had real fun, helping Kong-kong Henry to pluck the butterfly pea flowers (bunga telang) for Aunty Chik to use in making her nyonya chang.

Good Job

Ashley : Good Job (And she gives me 3 pats on my shoulder)

Viki : For what?

Ashley : For looking after ko-ko, hannah and I.

Viki : Oh...thank you my princess!

Then she places an imaginery sticker on my chest.

Viki : What is that?

Ashley : A star for you.

Proud of my son

Jayden has come a long way. From not wanting to learn music until he can play..

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!!
