What was joshuaboy doing at 2319 (11.19pm) one night?

When i checked on him,he said, "zhuo Bob..."
He was piecing together 'Bob the Builder' puzzle.

That puzzled me...

Joshua is 3!

Had a simple birthday celebration for joshuaboy last sat (5th Sep) at our own place.

Mahmmyboy bought a 'Thomas & Friends' playhouse for joshuaboy last year. I was cracking my head what to get for him this year. Finally, i decided to bake a cake for his birthday. I don't know how to bake cakes nor pastries stuffs. Thus seek help from my childhood friend who can bake just like a professional. However, she was ill and could not teach me. Luckily, auntie serene neo came to my rescue. She spent one friday evening teaching me the basics & the hows & ....baking a cake. Since i do not have baking instinct, she decided to teach me a sure-can-succeed cake, which is brownie. She was very helpful to call me on thurs nite (3rd sep), offered her help again the following nite. With her help & baking fingers, joshuaboy's birthday cake was 'borned' on 4th sep, 630pm.

My guests were impressed with my idea & effort. Pappy was elated that nite & i heard him keep mentioning something like "...my wife bake one..." "...very nice..." Thanks pappy!

Happy Birthday, Joshuaboy! You are 3!

National Day 090809

We wanted to view the parade from Merlion Park this year. However, the whole place was denied entry at around 615pm. The pedestrian path along the Esplanade Drive was jam packed with human crowd. We moved along the Anderson Bridge next, and made a quick decision to stay put at the bridge. Luckily, our decision was wise & sound as the police stopped further entry to the bridge after that.

The fireworks display (so near yet so far...)

Did we say the pledge at 822pm? We didnt as we were already walking along Boat Quay heading towards Central. We had simple Japanese-style western food at Ma Maison. Good service, good food, good ambience... By the time we arrived home, it was 10 min before 11pm.

Happy 44th Birthday, Singapore!

Red & White

joshuaboy's kindergarten had a party this morning. His form teacher had made arrangement with some parents to contribute some food for the class party. I bought packet drinks.
I have taught joshuaboy a mandarin national day song. He was humming this morning on our way to the kindergarten. It was a pity I did not manage to record his voice.

The kindergarten wanted to hold its annual sports day this morning. It was postponed, however, in support of the kindergarten effort to slow down the spread of H1N1. One of joshuaboy's classmates was down with Influenza A. There were 3 cases of H1N1 in his kindergarten so far. Pappy & I had signed up for the parents' race, and were in fact looking forward to this day. Well, we have to support & respect the principal's decision.

Happy National Day!
