CAR-toons with Dad

It all started on a lazy Saturday morning when Dad & I decided its time to take stock of our toy cars. Man, were we so surprised with what we managed to gather and amazed with our a fine collection! 

 

We also decided to also feature this non-typical piece as it reminded us so much of our dear dear mummy!

Farewell to my concubines

My last day in Learning Vision@ Biopolis was last Friday, 28 Aug 2009. My friends and I took a last photograph together.

My K1 classmates are

(standing from left to right) Jerome, Kieran, Yi Ching, Amelia, Maya, Magdalene, Natalie, Chloe, Jasmine, Janielle, Aliayah,

(seated from left to right) Elan, Jovian, Manwell, Wee Chong, Nicholas, me and Royshan.

Of them. my best friend is Jovian. Jovian and I love to play the toys together.

She is teacher Marlina. Teacher Marlina is the Principal of the centre.

My form teachers are Teacher Selva and 黄老师. I like them very much because they care for me and they are good and helpful teachers. I enjoy doing the activities that they plan for me and my classmates.

This cake was baked specially for me and my teachers by Uncle Tony, the boss from Coffee Culture. We gave this cake to celebrate teachers day in Learning Vision.

Uncle Tony is a very special to me and daddy as we often go to the shop near in Biopolis. His sandwiches and special ice milo are very very nice. Uncle Tony and daddy almost went into a business venture together to open a cafe in Harbor Front. Mummy said we shall buy a new two-wheel bicycle from Uncle Tony's new shop at the end of the month.

Return to our innocence

Video of our merry go-round game!

I like to thank God for the many childhood friends

that He has given me. Daddy and mummy's cell group came over to our new home in Raintree on 22 Aug 09. Although we initially planned to swim and then BBQ, the rain came and we were all stuck in the multi-purpose room. However, we really had lots of fun even though we could not go outdoors. It was real fun, even though we did not have our Barbie Dolls and Ben 10 omnitrix (although Tim did bring along his soldier uniform and weapons). Even Joanna was immitating JOy Joy with her 'Stop stop', while I continued to hold Faith's hands tightly as we ran round and round!

That evening, we enjoyed playing the games that we started spontaneously Daddy said that we need to treasure one another as these playmates may all grow up one day to be the best of friends. Just like the photo of Dad and his Sunday School friends (can you spot daddy?) when he was a kiddo, Dad wishes that I will cherish my childhood and the memories of my friends!

Facing my inner Goliath II

The Second Time

Our next visit was a breeze.

After the first round, I found it much easier and definitely, less scary an experience!

Facing my inner Goliath I

The First Time

I was near pee-ing in my pants.

Dad and I walked round the high obstacle course for a few times. Each time, I stepped forward and said yes. However, the moment I was buckled up, I quickly turned away again. By the third time, I garnered enough courage to try go for it. I was so frightened as I climbed up the stairs.

I was really very frightened but dad encouraged me throughout the whole obstacle course. In order to encourage me to walk on, bravely, dad even fell from the bar as he climbed up to hold my legs. I was fearfully holding onto the rope for my dear life. After each segment, I felt like I cannot move on and was very tempted to give up. Dad said that I was near to tears but I managed to push myself all the way.

Finally, when I completed the whole course-which seemed like it was forever, I was elated and was so very proud of my badge of honor for completing the course. Dad said I was brave and he was very proud of me.

My Hotcakes and Celery Juice

Cooking is FUN!

I think my hotcakes are 'hotter' than Macs. At least this is what my Sunday School teachers said when I offered my home-made hotcakes to them. It was real hot standing on a stool beside the stove, but definitely loads of fun preparing my own breakfast together with Dad.

As for mum, she loves to have a refreshing glass of Celery juice. After mum helped chop up the vege, I did my part to squeeze them through. Of course, nothing beats drinking it myself! Yummy!

Joshua's Tasty Thumbs

Dad and mum know that I love to suck my thumb. Yet, I too know that they dislike me doing this. It takes much energy and time for them to correct this behaviour and yes, they have explained why I need to stop this bad habit. But I still find it a struggle to obey Daddy and mummy in this regard. I don't like them doling out the punishment but this addiction seems beyond my control, especially when I am sleepy. Is this an excuse? Not really. I say, my parents are sensitive to my needs but what can I do?

Why Joshua Fights the Battle @ Jericho

TOday (1oth May 2009) is Joshua Yeo's first blog entry. When he saw the lovely blog that Joanna had, he felt that he would like to have a personal blog too.

Daddy asked Joshua, "Why Joshua fights the battle at Jericho?" Joshua replied, "Because I am a strong boy!" Joshua shared with dad that he enjoys fighting evil like his favorite cartoon character- Ben 10.
