Kueh project exhibition

Carpe Diem opened a kueh house today.    All grandparents, parents, aunt, uncle and siblings were invited.

The children performed some sing and dance shows as the prelude of the open house.

One unit of Carpe Diem exhibited the crafts made by the children with guidance from the teachers. From these exhibitions, I salute to the teachers.    Not only that they need to teach the children academic, take care of the needs of the children, they are full of craft ideas too!

The crafts contributed by parents.

This was made by Png Png and I.

There were sale of kueh (some made by teachers and the children in the morning, some bought).

Png Png and Tian Yu were appointed to be the cashier.

There was a big crowd around the cashier.

 Png Png scratching his head.   Guess he was lost at counting the money and selling the kueh coupon.

Teacher Esther came to rescue.

Png Png issued kieh coupon instead.

Png Png was very happy that it was his duty was over and became the customer to buy kueh coupon.

Png Png happily eating the kueh he bought.

I discovered a cute coconut craft on the "dinning table".

He is a tween!

My elder prince Chen Chen turns a tweenager today!   It was like yesterday when I had him in my arms.   Back then, we showered him with all our attention since he was the first child in our household. My parents, hubby, myself, my brother and sister in law, 6 adults gave him all the attention.   I spent a lot of time playing with him, reading to him,  teaching him.....  

He lost the total attention he used to get since his younger brother arrived.   No doubt, he exhibits the traits of a big brother and loves his brother very much.   Many a time, he extends his big wings and shelters his brother, especially when he brought his brother to play in the playground or theme park.   

My happy, lovely, easy going, sociable boy.   

We celebrated his birthday in his favorite Sakura buffet restaurant.   His forever love - ice cream

Forgetful me forgot to bake him cake.   The restaurant offered cake for his birthday but for consumption on the spot, not for taking away.   We decided to forgo it since we won't be able to stomach the cake.  My easy going lovely boy made do with a cup cake from the buffet counter.

My boys and hubby had table soccer game after the buffet dinner.

His birthday presents

Breakfast with Mom at Carpe Diem

Carpe Diem organised breakfast with mom before Mother's day yearly.   There was a delay this year due to electric failure before the planned date.

Same as last year, bee hoon was served for the breakfast.   Children presented  present to their mom before taking breakfast.   What a sweet thought by the staff of Carpe Diem.

Png Png eating the bee hoon and the present for me was next to him.

He said his teacher helped him to tie the ribbon on the box.

Png Png insisted that he opened the present for me.

See what did he make for me.

What lovely pendants.
