Reflections of parents of not-so-young-kids-anymore
While Hannah has been with us for 2 Years 6 Months now, we’ve only really celebrated our first family-Christmas this year, with trees, home decorations, stocking, and presents and the like. Hannah (of course) received the most presents, followed closely
We’ve been reading to Hannah every night before bed but just today decided to try varying the activities a bit. Ling got her an activity book and glue from Popular Book Store (Ling quips that the Popular Membership card is
We didn’t start Hannah on watching kiddie television programme until very recently when I bought her a couple of veggie tales DVDs that were on sale. Hmm, this wasn’t intentional but perhaps we didn’t want her to become addicted to

The Nex Shopping Mall at Upper Serangooon opened last year, and is a short 10 minute drive from our Rivervale home. It’s also become one of our favorite weekend spots. The place has everything: a huge range of kopitiam-styled, small
Getting Hannah to be potty trained has been a nagging issue at the back of my mind. I know of babies who were potty trained before they turned one while others only mastered it around three to four years old.
