Many thanks to the 2 ladies who sat beside us that were so patient and helpful when Tong had a little cry. Tong had been a very good girl after that. it was really amazing for a little one settled so well for a 20 hours flight. We had a pleasant journey :)

Big girl 
Breast feeding had been a very precious moment for both of us. It was so wonderful that both of us have done the best emotionally and physically in the weaning process. Tong is no longer attached to my breasts since 1 March. We are now close to each other in different way. She would touch my hair softly and let all my blues or problems melt with her understanding eyes and smiling face.

Tong started to sleep in different room by herself since last 3 nights. She would make some noise when she woke up. Mommy would stay by her side and Tong would hug Mommy and smile with a "touching nose".

"Xin Tong wants to shh shh..." Yeah, Tong is now able to pass motion and urine by herelf in the potty and toilet (with little help). She can wear her pants, take out her shirt and choose her favorite dress :)

Thanks Tong, you let me be a happy mommy!

38, I got fever 
Tong got fever this afternoon. It might because of the non stop heavy rain recently. She inserted the thermometer into her ear and pretended "38,发烧了" (38, I got fever). She was cooperative to drink more water, still active and as naughty as usual.

She fell asleep at 8pm.

Better to Remain Silent 
After the e flash cards, I read her stories, switched for dim light and turned on lullaby as usual. Tong quickly took her Tortoise and rushed to the door and cried for going out to the living room. Daddy was watching football match during her sleeping time. I just kept quiet and not even looked at her. After 1 minute, she turned back to the room and said "妈咪生气了" (Mommy is angry). Hey, she was good in observing :)

She knew that it was time to sleep so that she can wake up earlier tomorrow to play.

She slept beside me and I remind her again to sleep well, eat well and exercise more so that she can grow as tall as... "Mommy" she said.

Heart Shape Pumpkin 
We had baked pumpkin, soup and pumpkin seeds for lunch. Tong liked the lotus seeds and red dates in the soup. She was able to spit out the hard skin of the pumpkin seeds since last month. We enjoyed our lunch for about an hour. Tong refused to go down even she was full. She was looking at the left over 2 pieces of baked pumpkin but not intended to eat it. Suddenly, she joined the pumkin together and said "心形" (heart shape). I laughed for her creativity :)

Sorry but I angry 
Tong grabed my spectacles that I put on the bed beside the pillow. She almost bent it. I said can not play with it and looked at her with a stern face. She received my message and release my spectacles. She said "Sorry" follow by "我生气" (I angry). I laughed and then we laughed together. Why she was the one who felt angry?
