'DR' or 'NEW' milk milk.....

As you all know, initially I have problem of 'weaning' Iz from his night time milk milk, but, you know what, after taking all your advices, I manage successfully wean Iz off from his addiction!!!

How I did it? Simple......All these while, Iz drink soya milk powder + goat milk in his nanny house and back home, he drink his normal favourite milk. And, especially, when he is sick - cough, his whole day milk will be purely soya milk to reduce his phelgm as well as puke. It is really effective method for Iz or Jona.


And, funny thing is, even I don't know why Iz label soya milk as Dr milk and his Bebelac milk as NEW milk milk.......so smart....maybe, because when he sick, automatic all his milk intake is switch to soya milk till his recover and initially, he is taking Progress Wyeth milk instead of Bebelac, and that's why he called Bebelac as NEW milk milk.


So, when he ask for his night milk milk, what I did is, mix soya milk powder for him. And, once he drink it, he will cry and said "I don't want Dr milk milk.......I want my NEW milk milk" and he just return it back to me without want to drink anymore (even tho it is a waste for several night, but worth it lor!!)

And, sometimes, he will ask me, "Momi, why you give me Dr milk milk and not my NEW milk milk. I want my NEW milk milk....I don't want DR milk milk, it is not nice".

"Momi, in morning time, you give me my NEW milk milk okie?"....and continue to sleep back when I agree. It has been almost 2 weeks that he didnt' wake up at night and ask for his milk milk anymore.......

Fhuiiiiyoo....finally, I though I can have good night sleep but, then,.....time to train him to be diaperless.....see my coming post about it :)

When Grandma is not around.......

It has been a week already that my mom went for a vacation in HK with my youngest sis. And, I guess, both my kids are used to it already that from time to time, grandma will be away either for vacation or helping my another sis looking after her baby as well as looking after the maid.

When mom is not around, I'm return back as 'pitiful' Cinderella (when she hasn't meet her prince charming). I have to wake up earlier around 6am, to prepare my kids stuff - daycare bag, milk bottle, towel, clothes, uniform, etc....and if the night before, I didn't washed their milk bottle then, I have to do it in early morning. Or put our laundry into washing machine or put into dryer, etc.....the tasks just can't finished at all.

Life without my mom or any helper is not fun at all, but, like my kids, I get used to it already. Of course, if I have a helper, it really ease my burden and I can relax myself a bit(as an extra bonus).

Last night, as I busy preparing some simple dishes for our dinner, this is what my kids are doing. It is so quiet (from the kitchen), and I thought what they are doing?? Ha,ha...watching television in good manner......and, give Momi a peace of mind to do my cooking.
And, the outcome: Simple fried veggies (cabbage + carrot), and steam fish (Iz and Dadi favourite).Can say, when kids grow up, it is really getting easier to babysit them compare to when they are young. Don't you agree with me?

Separation Anxiety - Nanny

Today is the 3rd day Iz went to daycare with Jona. And, today is the most happiest moment for his Dadi and Momi. Know why? Because Iz is no longer crying for his auntie(his babysitter) anymore, meaning he know that he need to go to daycare with his kor kor already.....too bad, Dadi didnt' capture the moment of Iz holding his kor kor hands and walk together into their kindy!!
Thinking back, it is indeed really a hard and sad moment for Iz to 'separate' from his auntie. From the way he talked and acted, etc, can see that he really appreciate the effort and care that his auntie has poured on him since he is 2 mths old baby.......can see how deep the auntie and uncle has 'love' him unconditionally.

Day 1: Wake up, already show his sour face. And, especially, when I changed him, he ask me this questions:

Iz: Momi, today I go where?
Momi: To daycare with Kor Kor
Iz: But, I want to go to my auntie house (with a sad tone).
Momi: mmmm...cannot
Iz: Why?
Momi: Because auntie not around. She went back hometown, seeing gong gong (lying to him).
Iz: Start crying and said: But, I want my auntie.....I want to see Eng eng and Xi Ying. Why Auntie don't want me ar? (another 2 lil girls that auntie is looking after)
Me, speechless and just able to hug him tight.

Day 2: I went to work and let Dadi turn to manage Iz. Wake up, Iz already started crying and keep saying "I want my auntie" "I want my auntie" repeating for several times.

Once arrived at kindy, Iz locked the car door, not wanting to go out, and Dadi has to comfort him. Then, when out, hug Dadi like Koala, so tight and won't let go......Reached inside the kindy, Uncle Yen take over, and Iz start crying so loud and keep shouting "I want my auntie" "I want my auntie" "I want to go with uncle for yum chai!!"

Yesterday, whole day, Dadi and myself feel so bad and helpless. We did discussed of might sending Iz back to his auntie house if his condition is not improving. We don't want him to feel so sad.

And, this morning, miracle happen. GOD might hear my prayer. Iz so happy and even manage to finish his milk without needing to use 'syringe'..... :)

Can really see that Iz 'love' his auntie so much, and no doubt the auntie also MISS Iz so much by keep calling to get her update on Iz!!
Not forgetting, Momi has more 'work' to do + pity my 2 boys has to bring 1 school bag + 1 daycare bag(each one) to go to school from next week onward. Sleeping bag need to bring on first day of the week and bring back home on last day of the week to be washed :O..........

Digital Photo Frame

I have aim to buy Digital Photo Frame for some times already, and finally, I got it!!!


My bro got to know that I'm eyeing on this type of technology and since he got 1 as a wedding gift from his friend and not using it at all....he just give it to me.....ha,ha...thanks lor, bro!!!

Otherwise, I almost end up asking my friend to buy one for me from US, which cost me around US 80 exclude tax.

And, initially, I'm quite happy and excited to have this new technology in my house, but, later, realise that I need to plug it on power supply to see the photo. Meaning if I switch off the power, the photo will gone as well......

Anyhow, it is good, that I can put on my princes best and cute photo on it, and play it non stop when I feel of missing or wanted to see them....Ha,ha....might plan to get another one. One for Jona's photo from baby till today and another one for Iz from baby till today.......

Good idea hor?

Still wake up prepaing milk for my toddler.....

I remember I did post this topic quite sometimes ago, that I'm happy that Iz has already stop asking for milk at night. Who know, immediately after I post this 'happy' post, within a week (immediately after I back from outstation), he is asking for night milk milk again.

All thanks to my darling Dadi.

Initially, Iz has stop drinking night milk milk when he is around 11 or 12 mths old. But, after a while, he fall sick and you know, when kid fall sick, they tend to lost some weight, and darling Dadi, pity on him, and at night (just purposely do it when I'm away - oversea business trip), he wake up and mix milk for Iz.

And, from that day onward, Iz just started asking for milk milk at night and there you go, Gone all my sweet dream!! To make it worst, he only will ask for night milk milk, when his mommy is around, and when I was away, he dare not ask or never wake up at night asking his daddy or grandma to make milk milk for him!!!
(When I complain to Dadi, he will always say, "When you out, he can sleep till morning without asking milk milk lor......or, he will say "I want to make nen nen for him, but, then, when he ask, I can't hear lor....too deep sleep **slap my forehead**)


So, you say ler.....he 'bully' his mommy or 'over sayang' his mommy??! Sometimes, in one night, he can force me to wake up at least twice: 1am and 5 ~ 6am. If I asked him like "Can you finished the milk or not?" And, when he finished the milk, he will say it half asleep, "Nah, you see, I can finished the milk one"....and immediately pop back to sleep soundly till 7 plus. And, poor Momi, can't sleep back if it is around 6 plus, cause I have to wake up and prepare myself to go to work liao.

If I don't mix milk for him when he request it, he will keep asking asking in gentle way till I give in......He will pat pat me softly and say "Mommy, I want nen nen"....and once he done with the milk, sometimes, he will immediately hug me to sleep like his bolster (something as token of appreciation to me)

You said, should I firm rejected his request to train him from having milk milk at night or I can still give in till he is a bit older? Do you have way to do it? I plan to train him to be diaperless soon.

"Why I always got a lot of homeworks wan?"

That's the question that Jona always pop out from his mouth when I asked him to finish his homework before he is allowed to play or watch tv.


Previously, he love to do his homework and either myself or my mom or his teacher never has problem of couching him to do his homework. But, I guess as he grow older, he start to get lazy in doing his homework. Early this year, he will finished his homework after some talking but, esp when Iz start schooling from 1st June 2008 together with him, obviously can see Jona just got 'demotivate' in finishing his homework.

"Why I always got a lot of homeworks wan?" "Why Iz don't have homework wan?" "Why everday I need to do my homework wan?" And, more and more questions pop out while he so unwillingness to finish his homework. It seem he just feel so unhappy that he has to finish his homework while Iz happily playing around even though both attend same school.

At least, 4 - 6 homeworks daily!!!

Initially, I told him that Iz still young and just started schooling, so, no homework...and later, I informed him that soon, Iz also need to finish his homework when he is 4 yrs old.....and now, I have finish all my reasoning with Jona, as I don't know what answer to tell him anymore .

What came worst is: He will do his homework but with him holding his pencil high up in the sky to write...imagine the outcome (??!!)...

Suddenly, maybe, GOD listen to my prayer, I find the solution indirectly......I bought Jona new bicycle on his recent birthday, and since then, every evening I will bring him and Iz riding their bicycle to playground, and I told him, if he finished his homework before I came back home, then, immediately we can go playground riding his bicycle....and it works except the handwritting part!!

It is really not easy to couch kids to do their homework, and I bet I will face even more challenger when Jona enter primary 1, as I'm a 'bananawoman' and when Iz start to have homework from next year onward as he hate doing colouring except create 'disturbance'.......

Know the value of money

2 weeks ago, while I was busy doing some housechores, suddenly I heard this conversation between my 2 princes:-


Iz : Kor Kor, I want to eat ar
Jona: You want?
Iz nodded his head.
Jona: Ok, you give me hundred buck and I will give this to you
Iz: But, I don't have ler
Jona: Ask from anyone lar. No hundred buck, I don't give to you

And, Jona just ride his bicycle away. Iz run to me and ask

Iz: Mummy, you got money or not? Can give me money or not?
Momi: Why?
Iz: I want money.....and his eyes seem got tears
Momi: Ok, Ok, ....open my purse and give him RM 1.

Iz: Kor, Kor, I got money, nah
Jona: Okie, nah, take it...

And, this little Iz grab the snack, and faster open it and eat (**fainted his mommy**). At another end, Jona just feel so happy, showing off the money that he got from Iz in exchange of his snack.....At the end, both feel proud and happy of themselves.

Even though Jona and Iz still don't really know the value of the money, but, I'm quite happy to see at least they know that if you want something, you need to pay for it and not just simply snatch or fight to have it.....still long way to learn for them.

Cute, Cute Little Angels

Even tho I'm old liao, but, I don't know why I still fancy a cute & small stuff......Last month, when I went to my youngest sis house in JB, I saw this cute board where she stick all her mini magnets on it - look so cute and nice!! And, without hesistant, she gave it to me (ha,ha..good, rather than she just simply throw this cute board on the floor next to her toilet door!!).

During my trip to Taiwan last week(Taiwan is always famous with their cute little thing beside Japan, of course), I manage to buy some mini mini magnets - small ladybirds (still got no chance to stick on the board yet, as my boys are still adores of it and can't depart from their ladybird insert).

Also, I even manage to buy 'Little Angels' Decoration which I aim for so long already. See, the wheelmill of 12 little angels. Don't they look adorable and wonderful? Everytimes, I look at them, my heart just feel so peaceful and happy ~ guess I know that ANGEL is watching at me and protecting me from whatsoever evil that will do me harm. Also, can't stop my itchy hands from buying another set of little angels sitting on the bench.

My aim now is, I will try to search for little angel that has magnet at the back, so, I could stick them on my little board or on fridge. Even plan to purchase all set of little angels with their house for my mom.....

"Wait little angels, I will come and bring you home"......too bad, I don't have a girl, otherwise, sure I can pass this down to her right?

Travel: Taiwan

What a horrible experience on this trip. On my way to Taipei last Thu, imagine, you paying so high price for the MAS airline and you are sweating inside their plane before depart. Previously, in my hubby old car, when the car is not moving, the air compressor or air con is not working, so I will feel extremely hot and warm - sometimes feel dizzy.
And, in MAS flight, it is the first time, I experience the same scenario. The aeroplane compressor is spoilt and imagine, you are stuck inside big AirBus with so many people and still waiting for some passengers to be on board!!! And, the pilot just apologise for the condition saying.......and when the plane start moving, the air con will back to normal". The flight is flying to Taipei and then, Los Angeles!!

Geee, I just wondering, where does the money goes to? Shouldn't the airline service their plane frequently?

And, now, I might be stuck in Taipei due to their 'unexpected' typhoon.....Aiyooo, now, only I know, when I heard the new of Typhoon when I back home(from CNN channel), I don't really feel it and don't really know how serious the Typhoon can bring. But, now, since I stuck in Taipei and might not be able to go home tomorrow....I can feel the tense that Taipei people is facing now. The government has announced that tomorrow is declare public holiday due to Typhoon and it will get worst from tonight till tomorrow afternoon. They expected the typhoon to be strong typhoon.

So, I really don't know what to do. I do miss my boys and, I need to call airline tomorrow to confirm and if not cancel, then, my flight might be delayed or I will be transfer to another airline or transit at some other countries!!

Just pray for me that I will be able to go home safely!! The typhoon is horrible and it really blow the cloud so fast.........

HaPPy BirTHday, Jonathan!!

Since Sunday morning, Iz has been busy with his birthday song:

"Happy Birthday to You"
"Happy Birthday to You"
"Happy Birthday to Jonathan"
"Happy Birthday to You"


......and he will pretend blowing the candles and clap his hands happily.....and the best part, now, he realise that it is his kor kor birthday and not him anymore....ease some of my worries, cause initially, he keep crying when I mention Kor kor birthday came first and him later.

This year, we did the celebration twice - once on last Sunday (together with my other family member), and another one, is only for him and his classmate and Jona just feel so excited and happy about it. Jona is always Jona - one gift and being his favourite one is more than enough. He won't take 2 even tho you ask him. So, when I bring him to Toy R' Us to choose his gift as I promise, guess what he take? A Dora story book!! That's all - so simple. And, grandma offer to buy extra gift for him, he just shook his head say "Enough".....

"My dear boy, you have grow up so fast and just behave so well and being more caring and loving toward your brother....of course, you are getting fluent in 'talking back' to anyone. But, I guess it is just a phase of your life in managing your own character."

Happy Birthday, My dear Son!!! Momi still remember it clearly when I was pushed into OT to deliver you and you came to this world exactly at 10.45am on Wednesday!! This date will be forever remembered by momi. Seeing you grow healthy & happy, it is the best ever gift I could have.....

So, to fullfill Jona another wish, I have order a cupcakes as well as cookies(for his party bag) for his classmates...and the best part, when he see these cupcakes/cookies, he just open his mouth wide and excited, with, no sound at all.....then, he just smile silently......of course, Iz is the one who 'steal' his kor kor cupcake and cookie first(fhuiiyoo...luckily I did order extra fews just to fullfill Iz appetite), and making lot of noise too.

Lastly, here I would like to wish
Aunty Chinnee "A Happy Sweet Birthday with her 2 newborns + QiQi "!!! Guess the best gift for you this birthday is 2 lil babies huh? Hope your wish come true.....

Travel - Singapore again...

You all must be wondering, where on earth I have been 'hidding'......Yalor, I'm travelling again, and my schedule is really tight, minute you see me back, minute you see I'm on the sky again. That's what Jona said to me "What, again? Why you keep travelling one?" When I told him that I will be travelling again this Thu.

Just back from Singapore, and find out one thing. Singapore is really full of rules!!! Minute they said, you can do this, minute, they implement the rule and if you didn't bother it, you will be fine.

Previous month, I totally have no problem of waving to taxi to stop and fetch me to any destination that I want. But, this trip, I NEED to find a TAXI STAND to stop taxi, otherwise, the taxi just won't stop!! Imagine, even though I stay in hotel, and the hotel doesn't has taxi stand, meaning, I have to walk some distance to grab taxi....

And, also, immediately I enter the taxi, all of the taxi driver keep complain to me about the high living standard, everything so expensive nowadays, etc......it seem Singaporean is feeling the pinch as well...and even there is one taxi driver who told me that if he is rich, he will like to stay in China rather than Singapore.....ha,ha...do you believe about it? Guess by the time, he is really rich, I doubt he will choose China liao...

Dare to kiss me.....?

Iz is definitely a chocolate lover, anything related to chocolate, he just can't accept the answer of 'NO' to have it.....of course, beside that, he does has a special 'nickname' in our home - little 'dustbin'.....as long as you munch or eat something, he will quickly go near you and ask for a bite.

Anyone seeing Iz, just can't said 'NO' to him. I don't know why, maybe, he is too cute......See, even my bro also fullfill all his wish. My bro even bought Gelato ice-cream for him when he ask for it!!!
So, on my cousin wedding dinner recently, Iz saw a nice chocolate fountain and ask for it. And, my bro even go and dip the strawberry and mashmallow into that chocolate for Iz. Before I could put a towel or napkin on Iz, it is too late. I will have a problem of getting rid of the choco on his shirt later.
The best part is, as what my bro comment: "He just so enjoying the food!!!!"

Ha,ha...so now, do you dare to kiss him? He,he.......

Earn extra pocket money?

All these while, I didn't really practise Envi friendly due to several reasons: can't find recycle centre(main issues), etc.....

End of last year, when I manage to find one which is just near my house, I got delighted and determine to be 'environmental friendly' to my earth as well as for my future generation sake. I even inform my hubby, mom, sis to join me and it seem to work extreme well!!

Not only I can do my part in saving this earth, I even can earn some 'extra' pocket money which of course is not a lot, but, this money I won't even earn it in the first place, if I throw all the recycle stuff into dustbin.....

Quite proud of myself for taking part in saving the world through my household :)

Another scar

This is the first time that Iz got 'injure' from nanny house, but, it is the second time that Iz got this serious scar. Last year, it happen that he fall from the table and got injure on his lower chin - and I did apply Vit E on him for several weeks.....still got scar but, luckily not that visible anymore, and hopefully, by the times, he grow up, it will fade away ~ that is Momi wish.

And, this time, he injuire himself just below the eye. Based on nanny explanation, it is Iz who wanted to open biscuit container (that make from PVC) and accidentally the cover hit his eyes - I really doubt her explanation, not that I don't believe her, but, when you see carefully, it seem the 'injure' is cause by long fingernail. Don't you think so?
When, I asking Iz, everytimes, he told me "Ta che did it"....or "Ta che make it".....

Maybe, it is really a time for me thinking of sending Iz to daycare with his kor kor next mth.....No doubt this nanny is extreme good in taking care of Iz - cause Iz never got this kind of injure since he is under nanny care except got it from home. But, since nanny start taking care of another baby girl (3 mths) few days ago, it seem she is really not capable of managing 3 kids at one go - I have to admit, that there is some 'careless' in handling Iz now......

Of course, if I'm in her situation, I could said, I just can't manage 3 kids - 3 yrs old, 2 yrs old and 3 mths old baby as good as she is!! That's why 2 is enough for me....

Like Dadi, Like Son

Dadi always has this habit - after eating lunch or dinner, he will munch munch on some junk food or tibits as you call it. When you ask him, "not full huh?"....His simple reply, "No lar, just eat for fun only".......

And, guess what? One of his son also inherited this habit.....I bet most of you will know who is it. This lil boy, after drinking 6oz of milk mix with 2 tablespoons of cereal, and within mins, he will said he want to eat 'tibits' or biscuit. Reason: "I'm so hungry lor"..."If I dont' eat, I will die liao"......so, you said, same like Dadi or not. I guess he still doesn't know how to say 'eat for fun only'. But, soon, he will.

This is how he hug his 'tibit' - so tight......

Ouch....it's painful!!

My sis is a primary school teacher and teaches a naughty class, which the student family background is not so good. While we shopping in Taipei recently, my sis saw this cute cane, and it is so cheap that she bought it.
When she test it on my palm, and she didn't properly hit on the specific target, it end up hitting on my big thumb as well as some part of my palm...Imagine the pain!!! My tear just drops freely without needing to think of any sad stories....It is really so painful and within a seconds, it develop a hematoma(how you called it - bruises) on my big thumb.
Wow, I guess the prison guard is using this kind of cane to cane the prisoner??

I just told my sis that if she really need to use it, just make sure she 'shoot' the right target and not simply cane it.....and seem she forgot to bring it back with her recently, at the moment, I used it to cane my sons buttock....ha,ha

Daycare Activities

This is a backdate post.


Jona just love to attend to his daycare when my mom is not around to babysit him(my mom travel a lot). So, during recent school holiday, he just has lot of fun at daycare with his teachers and friends. Every evening, when I went to fetch him, his face tell everything: He give me his sweet and happy smile - with all the 'hardwork' and 'fun' that he had during the day.....

One day, he bake cupcakes for us, of course, with assistance from his teachers.....He will tell me like this: "Mommy, you want to make cake?" "If yes, then, first thing, take a flour, water, egg, etc.....mix mix mix and then, put a bit into a cup and then, put into oven to bake"....


Jona bake in school!!



"And, I got 4 cakes with me" "One for Iz, One for Momi and One for Dadi. Last one for me".....



Another day, when he came back, he request for a tape, so, he could stick his 'art' on the wall - hand and foot print, and till today he is so proud of it.


And, many many more.......few stick on the wall and lots in his special drawer.

So, now, I'm wondering whether I should enroll Iz for a daycare too when my mom is not around, so, both boys can attend together, and it will be easier for me to fetch them one goal rather than have to fetch Iz from nanny and then proceed to fetch Jona from daycare?? Still in dilemma cause Iz nanny is looking after Iz quite good in term of nutritious food.

Princess Eviana is born

Last week is really a hectic week for me - travelling and team building in Trolak.....but, end of the week, I got a really surprise and HAPPY new!!! Yup, I become 'YI YI' again for Gabriel's newborn sister.....Last Friday, 20th June 2008, my sister (Aunty Flora) give birth to a healthy and normal little princess which she decide to name her 'Eviana'.....

She is so cute and give me a nice and sweet welcome smile when I snap her picture......Definitely, she will be pampered by all of us (esp my family, and my mom)...

Why not? Since I don't have princess, then, I can treat her as my precious princess...and I have reason to go shopping buying girlie stuff now, he,he....and at the moment, she is our youngest princess from my side of family.....

Truly welcome our lil princess Eviana....can't wait to see her again this weekend, have even 'invest' some gold bracelet for her....and Jona just can't stop stroke lil Eviana during a visit to see her in the hospital........

Suddenly, feel so urge to hug and carry a baby.....the feeling is so nice..

Cross stitching.....

Since young, I love to do cross stitch, A BIG Thanks to my mom for develop this hobby in me.....My mom will always pass to me a simple and easy to do cross stitch while she perform the difficult one, like scene of sunrise using mosquito net as base, etc....I have a lot of cross stitch picture hang in my house(hometown)....


And, ever since I enter Uni -> working -> marry -> got 2 princes, I just don't have the energy or time to spend on cross stitch anymore, till recently, when I travel on business trip....

To kill my 'boringness' at night, when I'm free, I know that I can have this hobby back - when I travel on business trip...yeah, that's the best time for me. Of course, definitely not at home - handling 2 boys, doing housechores, etc, already left me 'O' energy to do some cross stitch at night....

And, especially, for this business trip - in the countries, which had Winter period, cold, freezing and windy, definitely it is not for me to go out and walk around...I really not the type of winter lover, cause I hate when my nose turn red like Rudolph and my ears pain so much and need to wear like 'dumpling' to ease my coldness.....

Hope I could finish it anytimes from now, so I can start hang it up on my wall to brighten my sweet home......

Initial stage ~ 3 mths back....

Now, almost done, except the 'mommy' on right and table cloth.....yeah!!

Unforgetful Day!!



Monday, 9th June 2008, must be an unforgetful day for Iz. Why? Because he is attending his first day in kindy and seem like he just can't forget his nanny + his daily morning routine of 'yam cha'

What I did is, keep telling him that he will be going to his aunty(nanny house) after he brush his teeth, change to uniform, etc...if I mention 'school', he will cry and insist of not doing anything. I even have to 'plot' with Jona to mention only aunty when Iz asked why change to uniform, why wear brief, etc...(Thank you so much, Jonathan for helping Momi out!!)


It is really heartbreaking of seeing Iz keep crying so many times in one day. He never cry so charm since he born till today. I thought of withdrawing him immediately from the school, when I see he so 'desperate' and 'unhappy' with schooling, but, Dadi stop me, saying, no matter how, he need to go through this phase of life - it is the matter of soon or later.


Before I decide to enroll him to this kindy, I did some preparation like telling him about it for the past 4 - 5 mths, but, everytimes I mention it, he will just say "NO"..and I even bring him along to fetch Jona from daycare daily, to familiar him with school environment and teachers as well....but, he just insist of NO.


Imagine, on first day, when I drop him in school, he cried so hard saying "Momi, don't go"....and then, when driver aunty come and fetch him to nanny house, he cried again, saying "I want my mommy"....."How come not my mommy come and fetch me one?" "I want to go my house".....


And, when driver aunty said, yes, I'm bringing you back home, he stop crying, but, immediately when he see driver aunty by pass his house, he keep crying again till reaching nanny house, keep saying "I want my house"..."I want my mommy"...."I dont' want aunty-nanny".....


When I go and fetch him from his nanny house later in the evening, his eyes look swollen like have been crying for several times....you said, heartbreaking or not?


Today, it is Dadi task to send him to school...Even before going to school, Iz has informed Dadi "Daddy, today you go to school with me, okie?" (Showing some pitiful face)..."I don't like the teacher"...."I so scared".....


And, true enough, when Dadi drop him at school gate, he cry again....and need teacher to hold him again and comfort him...


Now, I'm in dilemma of whether to forfeit the fee which I have paid throughout this year or just let him cry daily (not sure till when)...what do you think? Is Iz too young to go kindy? He is 2 years plus but, if calculate using year, he is 3 years old now...



"Baobei, Momi just want the best for you, and seeing you crying daily when sending you to school, isn't make Momi proud, instead it make Momi heart sad and heartbreaking. I pray to GOD to give you happiness. I always love you, baobei".
