Father and Son battle

Once Zac completed all his school homework, he took out his Nerf guns... And there we were, in a cross fire, a battle between father and son.

My birthday wish...

Happy birthday to me! A year older and... a year wiser, of course! Hehe...

Anyway, this year, I made a special wish! OUT LOUD! And my wish was... for Nana's top front baby tooth to drop off... You see, it's been weeks now that her adult tooth is growing at the back. But the front one, the baby tooth, is still hanging on tight... Not pleasant looking at all! She insisted that it doesn't hurt so we decided to leave it till it gets a bit more wobbly, but it seems to take forever!!!

So, of course when I made my wish out loud, my bb feels that she should do something about it. She stood in front of the mirror, took a deep breath and shook her tooth... And...

Finally! 

My wish came true!

Edusave Character Award

Zac received the Edusave Character Award today...
So proud of our little boy...

Keep up the good work Zac! We are so proud of you!...

When a membership request is denied...

Recently, Zac is so into this new online game called "Disney Club Penguin". With exclusive benefits like inviting other members to his "house" and collecting as many "likes" for the decorations that he has put up, Zac wanted so much to be a member and bugged us to make the payment for registration... Knowing that he will get addicted, we rejected him. But this cheeky monkey sure knows how to make us feel guilty.

Though upset, he continued playing with whatever minimum access that he could get. A while later, he came over to papa and said...

Zac: "Pa, you know... Who visited my house in club penguin today?"
Papa: "Who?"
Zac: "Nobody..." (said with an expressionless look)

Then he went on with...

Zac: "Then you know... 3 people liked my house today too... U know who?"
Papa: "Who?"
Zac: "It's me..." (again said with an expressionless look)

Both mama and papa broke into laughter upon hearing this... Kids!

Character Development Award

Somewhere in late September to October, Zac called me while I was in the office...
Zac: Mama, someone called me to the office today. I thought I did something naughty! When I went in, there were 8 teachers sitting and waiting for me. I was nervous.

Then, the teachers began asking questions.

Teacher: Zac, why do you think your teacher chose you as one of the nominees for the role model?
Zac: Ehmmmm, because I am smart? (as usual, an overconfident reply from Zac... he said the teachers laughed...)
Teacher: Why do you think your classmates picked you as their role model?
Zac: I think because I am caring. I always help my friends.
Teacher: What will you do if your friend tried to copy your work?

Zac: I will tell teacher.
Teacher: But your friend will not want to be your friend anymore if you do so.
Zac: Then I will not tell the teacher. I will give him a second chance and tell him not to copy.
Teacher: Your friend still insist on copying. So how?
Zac: I have no choice but to tell teacher.
Teacher: What about your friend? He's not going to be your friend anymore...
Zac: Never mind, lose this kind of friend is okay.

Teachers applaud when he said that. Zac said he was lost and confused over the teachers' reaction but was glad to walk out with a goodie bag full of yummy tidbits.

For displaying values in line with the school's iCrest Value, Zac was selected as the recipient for the "Character Development Award" for the Care Level (Primary 1).

Over the years, we have worked so hard trying to instill good values in you. We are so proud of you Zac, for keeping up with what has been taught and emphasised. May you grow up to be a good person my dear...
