人之初，性本善。

性相近，习相远。

苟不教，性乃迁。

教之道，贵以专。

昔孟母，择邻处。

子不学，断机杼。

窦燕山，有义方

I notice that Shi Xu can do recitation quite well. He can recite National pledge , sing the full nursery rhyme , recite stories .For the stories i read to him , he can memorise the sentenses on each page.Sometimes people thought he can read (when he looks at the picture in the story book, he will read the sentence EXACTLY same as that page).In fact he is reciting the sentence by looking at the picture on each page .( he is doing picture reading , not word reading) .By now , he still can't read words by himself .

By notice this , I decide to introduce him 三字经 .He picks up 三字经 quite fast . By now he can recite some of it (video above) .I am thrilled to no end with this .

Welldone, my boy ! Mummy is proud of you .

We went to Singapore National museum on last Sunday .It was our first museum visit .

In conjuction with museum opening day and school holiday , National Museum of Singapore was hosting an array of performances, workshops and activities .We actually were not so much on touring the museum,but to attend some children themed programmes organised by the authority.
Shi Xu was wearing the drama costume . ..

After having fun with the animal costume ,we went upstair and saw a lot of children in the art and craft workshop .Shi Xu sound thrilled and wanted to join in.

Shi Xu was busy coloring his fishes .

Our fish art was done !

Lastly we proceeded to History Gallery .We were provided a portable audio system .Every display item or segments will have numbers displayed on the floor, or next to artifact .We are supposed to press the “number”on the audio system , then it will do the explanation. We spent quite some times in the gallery .

I would say this museum trip is a valuable education tour and we will definately visit again .

Last Friday when i reached my in law house , my little boy had already been waiting for me at doorstep ,welcome me with a flower made by him and greeted me loudly "HAPPY MOTHER'S DAY!!" . I really got surprise!!

He gave me another surprise in short while .A necklace made of macaroni.He wanted to put on his handmade necklace for me ! At that moment , my heart almost melt instantly.
These are the presents from Shi Xu......

I was wearing his macaroni necklace . does it look nice ?

Perhap he made the presetns with the help of school teacher , but I was totally overwhelmed by the surprise he gave me . They are too precious for me , nothing beat his handmade presents .

On mother's day , we had a wondeful day out ( brunch at Epicurious , catch a movie , visited zoo and had dinner specially prepared by daddy ) .With the precious persents from my little boy and daddy and the wonderful time we had ,I can never be happier .
This year i have a wonderful and unforgetable mother's day :)

HAPPY MOTHER'S DAY !!
