to Mei Mei

happy birthday to you :)









beautiful pencils

received this forwards mail. the great creativity. love them so much! the message of this mail is great too!





can you see A-Z?










































A PENCIL MAKER TOLD THE PENCIL 5 IMPORTANT LESSONS JUST BEFORE PUTTING IT IN THE BOX :

1.) EVERYTHING YOU DO WILL ALWAYS LEAVE A MARK.

2.) YOU CAN ALWAYS CORRECT THE MISTAKES YOU MAKE.

3.) WHAT IS IMPORTANT IS WHAT IS INSIDE OF YOU.

4.) IN LIFE , YOU WILL UNDERGO PAINFUL SHARPENINGS, WHICH WILL ONLY MAKE YOU BETTER.

5.) TO BE THE BEST PENCIL, YOU MUST ALLOW YOURSELF TO BE HELD AND GUIDED BY THE HAND THAT HOLDS YOU.

We all need to be constantly sharpened. This parable may encourage you to know that you are a special person, with unique God-given talents and abilities. Only you can fulfill the purpose which you were born to accomplish. Never allow yourself to get discouraged and think that your life is insignificant and cannot be changed and, like the pencil, always remember that the most important part of who you are, is what's inside of you and then allow yourself to be guided by the hand of God.

only time

before anything, Happy Birthday to Mei Mei, my very dear BFF :D 32 years old with 2 lovely babies and a happy family, you are in happiness track to success path :D so do I :p above all, wish you are always in the pink of health to enjoy each of precious happiness moments in life :)

done with birthday wishes. let's share my bbb wishes come true story. night before, royee slept with 2 AA sized batteries. reason being is he found my old time swatch watch, which is fit to his hand. but the problem is, the watch is not functioning coz no battery power. my mum told him we need to replace it with a new battery. so he went and removed his toys battery. my mama and papa felt amused :p my mama said she didn't how to do it, you wait for mama to help you. so he waited me with 2 batteries :p

after seeing this scene, so kesian the poor boy. I decided to buy him watch the following day.


I found these for bbb. cheap cheap one but I know I can cheer the children up with surprise! :D now they start learning about telling time, especially for royee, he can non stop asking ppl time and checking the clock.


see, so happy!


continuous posing with his watch. in fact, I wanted to snap the cute angry birds on his shirt :p


worth for money kekeke to buy children happiness ^^


beh tahan him. 'mummy, tomorrow 6 morning I want to go to school with the watch' siao! 8am class go at 6am!


gal is always tenderly soft n lovely :)


sweet sweet Eva in the cute cloth set that my mama bought from hatyai ^^ angel slept early last night (or I come back too late? :p)

my challenge to them - if they can maintain the watch in good condition till school end this year, then I will bring them to watch shop and buy better watch that they like. let's see :)

education

“The rule in every school is clear; every child needs to be educated.”

“Not everyone is born smart but they can learn. That is why we need education. No discrimination should exist in our education system.”

quoted from new straits time news reporting about a school at Sarawak locked 3 students in the class to stop them from taking upsr exam so the school can maintain good performance. so sad to see this :(

there is no child with inability to learn, but there is adult who doesn't know how to teach the child with the way the child can learn to the best level. the teaching method used is to suit the children learning approach.

am still find the best way to teach and guide my bbb. 3 children, 3 learning attitudes. parenting tips from some experienced tutors are important. parenting books can provide us ideas too.

children art exhibition

in saturday morning when laogong sent royee to the art class and I sent angel to ballet class, then the art class teacher pass the certificate from Taiwan to laogong n said 'your child won in the Taiwan drawing competition. laogong got surprise, and when he called me, I got surprise too!


this is the pic of cert that I asked laogong to mms me. can't wait to see what's happening hehe. by the way, we haven't seen the picture. the original piece had been sent over and the teacher has snapped the pic of the drawing. so, will wait for it to show us.

but still, mummy will be suspicious on the truth of the competition. very naughty guessing, what if the art school printed the certificate by themselves and fooling us around? so this morning I google the details.

oh! it is real! and the submission of the art works were few months ago! no wonder I asked royee what he drew, he said don't know oo. below are the details I copied from Taiwan embassy website.

"The 42nd World School Children's Art Exhibition
25 August 2011 - 27 September 2011
14:00 - 21:30
Sunday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, Saturday
Venue: Nanhai Gallery (南海藝廊)

The Taiwan's World School Children's Painting Exhibition offers children a platform for creating and appreciating paintings. In participating, children can be immersed in free, open, and playful culture. With an open mind, they can express themselves through painting process, break the language and word boundary, create symbolic situation and master their inner desire. Meantime, they can overcome obstacles about social communication. These become the main reasons why such a kind of painting exhibition has become profoundly popular for many years. We welcome people, especially those who care about and feel interested in art education, to come and watch this exhibition.

Focus: It will put on display works from 42nd exhibition decorated with outstanding honor, and others that won gold, silver, and bronze prizes from oversea competitions. Through the paint-brush of these children, we can then travel around the world and view about these wonders, so that we can have appreciated the diversified and rich world of marvel."

the exhibition is for age group 6-15. so, hopefully royee can work harder, think creatively to get more selected merit in future :) the award can build up children confidence level too!




he loves to draw and write. so, my mama house and my house, lots of piece of papers flying here and there. good one, creative one, heart attracting one, I laminate the art piece and keep in the 2-rings file.


this one, is in my office, love the windy feel ^^

seed

today I told my children they are seeds. seed that waiting to grow up to become a big tree.



teachers' teaching is to water the seed.
parents' guidance is to remove all the pest and weeds.
do homework, learning new knowledge, traveling is to fertilise.
Jesus's love is the sunshine.


I just wanted my children to be good boy and gals ^^
