it’s been a month since ive been at the Lego store. And I choose to take the good away with me.
Good, being the kids and the exposure to all them glorious Lego toys.

Today I had the cutest boys (siblings) bickering at the store. the younger brother couldn’t make up his mind on which box set to get, the elder brother kindly picked out a few bit soon got impatient.
even the grandparents were mocking the younger fella. He announced that he was mad at himself for not being able to decide.
Soon they were all pressing him to make a choice and he got flustered. he kept repeating ‘the more you rush me the more I don’t love you all’ ‘Im angry with myself’
then he just sat in the middle of the floored, pinching and scratching his arms and legs.
red marks started showing on his flawless pale skin.
my heart sank, I wanted so much as to hug the little boy in my arms or hold his arms to his sides. still in shock how his grandparents did not see that or even try to stop him from self-inflicting.
I can only imagine how he must have been doing this at home too.
yes, I’m still mad.
How could anyone not do anything? He’s at the tender age of 5 (I assume) No little one should have the idea/thought of self inflicting.
wow. what a world we live in.

Am missing dear Charlotte’s birthday party at the Ice skating rink on the 24th:( utterly gutted. Sigh. I hope I get to spend the friday with le little girl before I leave for a mini vacation.

Note to self: Need to start learning french to impress her. (Haha)

Because Keith was wearing his usual power rangers tee at church today. He’s such a sweet little boy. And I’m so so glad I am able to connect with him. Playing ball and pretend fights. His imagination is brilliant, really. Everytime he speaks, I just wanna listen some more. He told me about monsters and how we are to defeat them. He grabbed my arm to pull me into our ‘training’ room so we can practice more to defeat the mother of all monsters(haha!)
I was yellow ranger and he was red. Minutes later, he told me he paid the bank $100 and now he was to be golden ranger. Hahaha. He asked me if I wanted to pay the bank too, to become a silver ranger. Oh the cuteness of kids.
I can’t wait for next Saturday now, because I’m gunna be a silver ranger and he, an infinity ranger.

Stole the photo from Pierre and Yvonne. hehe.
Dearest Charlotte is all set for Primary 1! How time flies.
But we’re all so proud and excited that she’s joining the Convent gang :)

hahaha Ollie’s drawing of a chopped tree and umm, his name which has spelling errors. hahaha adorable. Photo by his Mum, Yvonne!

so i was watching tv when an advertisement popped up on a charity event on a specific Saturday, in town.
I was just thinking, what a way to spend an afternoon, on my birthday.
For the Children’s Charity.

Haha. As usual, i suppose it’s just one of those ideas i conjure up in my head but not really putting to action.

Say hello to the love of my life :) Olivier

October is pretty awesome. Why? Because, 1. First of October = CHILDREN’S DAY and 2. HALLOWEEN!!

The joy of being kids. Or well, young at heart.

And in the words of a very Very good friend of mine, “VAL, CAN YOU PLEASE GROW UP. ACT YOUR AGE?”
To you, dear sir, no i will not. i will not succumb to peer pressure:)
