If you have no daughter..



No more crying in the morning…Hurray!! Hurray!! Hurray!!
After a good 2 months, Thaleia has finally stopped crying when we drop her off in school. Now she waves goodbye and joins her friends in play once we bring her to her classrooms. We can see she’s really starting to ease in now, smiling at her teachers and responding to her friends. So glad for this progress!!


Learning to sing along
I started playing children songs in her playroom every mornings since last week. And on the way to school..she started singing, “lalala..dotter..lalalala dotter..” . Then I realized she was singing a part of Hot Cross Buns song!! which goes “if you have no daughter..if you have no daughter..if you have no daughter.., you can give them to your son”..so Hot Cross Buns has definitely taken over Head Shoulders Knees & Toes as her favourite song now.



More geography
Thanks to Auntie Lee Ping. My collection of postcards now includes Mexico and New Jersey! When she grows older, she will have a wide collection of pictures of many places in Europe and US…I found a nice floor puzzle of the map of the world in Kiddy Palace on Saturday. Can’t wait for another year to show her the beautiful countries and the animals unique to each continent that God has created in seven days!
