Since my parents have gone home, Josiah went through 2 weeks of refusing to talk to them via Skype. Then suddenly, he started telling me he don't want to go home (whenever we went out) but wants to go to Malaysia. I would tell him that Malaysia is very far away and we cannot go there now.....big burst of tears!
I have tried telling him that if he misses his Kong Kong and Po Po, he can talk to them via the computer. But I think he realises now that nothing beats having them around. I agree with him too.
Josiah's achievement so far:
- Able to ride a bicycle on his own
- No more nappies, Josiah is fully potty trained; day and night. I am so proud of him for being Mummy's big boy!
- Able to remove socks, shoes and jacket on his own. Although he prefers it if I do it for him, of course.
- Able to count from 1-20 easily.
- Recognise all his alphabets, both big and small capital
- Loves Mummy & Daddy to read his favourite books like, Jack & the Beanstalk, Little Red Hen, Usbourne phonic series like Frog on a Log, Sam Sheep Can't Sleep, Goose on the Loose.
- Able to use scissors to cut paper on his own
- Able to copy write all alphabets and numbers 1-10
- Able to count correctly up to 10 items
- Able to recognise Daddy's car from a fleet of cars at the car park. Actually, he recognises the logo of the car and can tell us other cars that "look" like Daddy's car.
- Able to tell me when he is hungry and what type of food he wants.
- Able to help me cook in the kitchen without making a mess
- Able to wash himself in the shower and brush his teeth on his own.
I know this sounds corny but, "My baby is grown up now" and it did pass by so quickly.
Sniff.
Excuse me whilst I look through his baby photos and reminiscence.
