Difficult Journey Ahead

Gordon’s tantrums are getting worse by the day. He used to listen and follow my instructions when he’s younger. His teacher told me about his behaviour at school this afternoon. When he wants something, he will throw a big tantrum until she gives in to him. I feel that this is not right. I told [...]

Gordon Doesnt Like To Write

Gordon doesnt really like to write much. I’m talking about his school homework. I think he’s very traumatized by the sheer amount of writing he has to do each day. But i have no choice but to sit with him patiently each day and help him finish up what he’s supposed to hand up the [...]

Dry Eyes In Kids

Gordon is suffering from dry eyes and blinks his eyes very often. I am trying my best to keep his eyes hydrated at all times with an eye drop every few hours. Partly my fault for allowing him to play with the PSP so much during Chinese New Year. I’ve hid it from him and [...]

Gordon’s Homework

Malcolm may only be two [...]

The weekend’s here

In the blink of an eye, my kid’s school break is nearly over. Today’s already Friday, and yet, i didnt spend much time doing his school revision with him. Come next year, he’ll be in Kindy Yr2, and yet, he still doesnt like to write. I really dont have much time left before he starts [...]

Star Wars costume

Gordon received his very first birthday party invitation. I’m happy that my quiet lil’ boy has finally made a friend in school. I know who the birthday boy is. His dad goes to the same club as my hubby. I havent met his mom before, but i’ll have a chat with her at the party [...]

Textbooks are meant for reading, Gordon….

Gordon loves to line his school textbooks on the floor. Not that i dont allow him to do so. The thing is, he wont pick them up after that and Malcolm will go play with them and might tear some pages out. He’s still far too small to understand that he cannot tear pages from [...]
