Speedy recovery my poor boy!

A quick 5 min playground after school.


Elliot loves drawing Halloween stuff which I don't understand why. 
And meimei just wanted some involvement.


The girl was sick for a couple of days and when she got well, she just want to eat everything she could lay her hands on.


Breakfast at coffee club then sushi for lunch. 


Being silly at home

The weather-very-hot-hairstyle.


Poor boy is having a very persistent fever and had missed school for a week. 
 He's been to the doctor twice and never once complain about the crazy amount of medicine he needs to take everyday. He drinks loads of water and changes the cooling pad on his forehead every 4 hrs. The fever just burns and dries them up oh too quickly. He has lost so much weight. The endless coughing he had, it was horrible. There were those nights when it got so bad he would just sit up alone and stare in the blank. I felt so sad when he casually asked if he could go to the playground or ride a bicycle. He couldn't afford to do so as these will aggravate his coughing. 

It's been too much an emotional turmoil for me, he's still burning now right next to me, why wouldn't this stupid fever just go away??? How I wish I'm the one who was sick instead. My heart breaks to see him going through this and all I wanted to do was to hug him tight and tell him, I love you very very much Elliot.

First day of school!

Thank God they are adapting well at their new schools. Sent them to school and I was getting butterflies inside, worrying they can't cope with the new environment.

 Elliot was all smiles and very excited to go to school because of his new backpack, set of colour pencils and Avengers lunch box. 
I've packed some strawberries for him so he has something to look forward to at break time. 

Leah's school starts 30min after her brother's. Brought her inside to find a seat, kissed her and told her I will be back when the class ends and the teachers here will take good care of you. She was a clingy kid so I was surprised when she's okay with the idea. Went back to fetch her and realised I was the only parent who didn't accompany my child during class. Teacher said she didn't cry and was very well behaved.

My brave little girl, mommy is so proud of you:)
You rocked your first day in N1 just like your brother!

An instalment of Elliot's overdue photos

Lunch with mommy followed by a session of speech therapy for Elliot. 


He's been doing the therapy for 6 months and was given an assessment last December. 
He had improved significantly and we are all so happy for him. 


Take picture with Auntie Leah. 


My dear boy looked so grown up here...
Loving the customised book he received last Christmas. Thank you cass and ah bee yiyi.
