1. Sunday morning, I took the kids out to the wet market at OUG and managed to get some fresh vegetables, chicken and flowers. The boys had some arguments, teased each other and got Bob finally crying out loud when Dash somehow hurt his feelings with the word "Stupid Zhong Yuan!". I was able to contain my frustration as I tried to pacify Bob and at the same time try to prevent Dash from doing further teasing! Finally, I had to scoop Bob up and somehow with mommy's hugs and kind words, he stopped making a scene. What a relief! After some time, Bob begin to tease Dash and got Dash so angry that Dash started to shed tears and was in the verge of hitting Bob! Haiya ... one episode after another. What a day! Used the same tactic and in between my hugs and kind words, Dash finally stopped crying and by the time we got back into the car, they were both playing happily together. What a double relief! I suppose brothers are brothers. Sibling rivalry is a norm after all. Kind of made me recall some of those similar moments I had when I was growing up. Once I fought so hard with PK that I hit him straight on the nose and had him bleeding! I felt so bad after that I never hit him on the nose anymore!
2. Watched Bob at swimming class for a while. He seem to enjoy his swimming lessons nowadays and is much more disciplined already. It's nice to see him slowly improving his water survival skills so much so that Azmi, his swimming instructor praises him.
3. As I sat by the pool, I suddenly felt the urge to write. Excitedly, I asked for a piece of paper and begin to write. The words just came flowing in and I managed to come up with 2 lovely poems within a minutes, inspired by my new penfriend who dedicated a special poem to me earlier. Sent them off later in the evening to this new found friend of mine, hoping that the poems will make him feel better as he was feeling sickly, imagining the smiles on his face as he read the poems!
