Getting to know myself

Posted on 14 Dec 201014 Dec 2010   by Ling

*Mommy has been trying to teach me more about my little body. She likes to ask me “where’s this and that” to reinforce my memory. I still think that my belly button is at my chest region. And I love

The Karate Kid

Posted on 7 Dec 201014 Mar 2018   by CY

The Karate Kid (2010) – on rental. I wasn’t much of a film buff 25 years ago in the 80’s, what with the fact that TV access at our old family home in Sembawang was strictly controlled by parents, and

Shake your bum bum

Posted on 4 Dec 20104 Dec 2010   by Ling

We noticed a cute reaction from Hannah for a while now whenever up-beat music was played. She would rock to the music by bouncing her bums if she was standing up or rocking her upper body if she was sitting

More Development Notes

Posted on 23 Nov 2010   by CY

Hannah Points (Somewhere)

Posted on 22 Nov 201022 Nov 2010   by CY
