Write and write :)

Nicole was in the mood to write. So, I got her some exercise books to capitalise on her new found interest.

She managed to write/copy those 3 chinese characters (xiao wu gui) on her own while I was putting Ethan to bed. I don't know how she did it but she was just able to put the strokes at the right place though I could tell that the strokes were not placed in the right sequence :)
I am pleased that Nicole is making good progress in spite of my absence during the day. I make it up by spending more quality time with her on some weekdays and certainly during weekends:)

I must say you have got an intelligent girl. And I think all of this is because of you being there and that is reaping benefits now... :)

thank you all mummies! I am very thankful for her intelligence and maturity. She strikes to excel when given appropriate amount of challenge. She enjoys a little peer pressure.

Work has been good. Still manage to balance work and family. Able to spend 1 to 2 hours with Ethan everyday before he sleeps. Thereafter, it would be time with Nicole.

Lots of work and project in the pipeline but I believe they are manageable. Will keep all posted.

Merry Christmas and have a blessed week ahead!
