as cheeky as she can be... ~_~

yep...

I mentioned that she's been crying lately,

see...

in the beginning, she didn't cry, while so many other kids were crying in her class...

there's this girl, who cried and climbed up of the cupboard just so that she could look out of the window, to look at her grandma...

and some of the boys, who cried, and tried to get out of the classroom, and ran around, till the teacher's to lock the door...

anyway,

so, merely after 1 month...

she started hers...

I talked hard, I talked soft,

I talked about going to school, and not going to school,

I talked about crying, and not crying...

and today, I decided, I'll just smile it off, or laugh it off...

she's just being cheeky!!!!!! plain cheeky...

cos, last night, when I was talking about her crying in the class...

oh ya, usually, I'll ask her, when I pick her up from the school, I'll say, "so, how long you cried?"

she'll answer, "10 minutes!" (see!!!!!!)

then, last night, we talked about this again,

and guess how she responded??

she told me, "tomorrow, I'm going to cry!"

oh dear!!!! hey! woman, how you know you're going to cry?

it means, it's all staged, and it's all "arranged"... by her!

she did it on purpose...

ok, most of the other kids kinda did it on purpose, with a purpose to showcase their separation anxiety, and it must be seen by parents...

yes, that was in the beginning...

and they did it really dramatically...

however, my girl?

I thought, the way she mentioned it was like...

it's just a daily routine morning exercise for her...

she could just start it without warning,

no specific time, no specific location,

it can be upon entering the classroom,

or, when I was leaving,

at this moment, she could hug me, and say bye to me, nicely and sweetly, and the next moment,

she'd start crying...

so, today, I was a bit worried...

I peeped a little bit through the classroom's window.. (it's quite a few stickers, just to block my view, I guess...)

still crying,

she pulled out her purple hippopo (the one I bought for her to bring to school)...

then, the teacher passed her a pencil,

still crying,

she took it,

still crying,

she started writing...

I thought that's quite a funny scene...

ie. her crying has nothing to do with whatever she's doing, or she needs to do...

and I'm very pleased that she's such a strong girl...

when at home,

she told me,

usually after mama left,

she'll pull out the hippopo, then she'll sing...

I asked her if the singing is the classroom, all sing together, or she sings on her own...

she said, she sings on her own,

cos, she misses me, and she sings, so that, she knows mama loves her...

cute or not??

cheeky or not??

again,

I'm very glad that she could find a way to console herself...

cos, since age 0 till her little brother came out...

hm... her only pacifier was my pair of booby... ^_^

I've tried many way to help her to find some pacifier,

all failed...

and I guess, my son will be the next one...

I'm not sure if this is breast-fed babies' problem, or simply my own problem...

see!

most kids, you give them a toy,

you give them some plush toy, they'll be contented for quite a while...

but not mine... -_-

however...

I'm pleased,

Praise the Lord~
