Happy Mother's Day

To all mums, my own mum too, Happy Mother's Day!

Kaelyn wished me a Happy Mother's Day this morning and gave me a hand made card, with lots and lots of help from her Dad of course. I think it's more like Dad drew the card and she helped to put some colouring. And Dad's drawing is like a kid's! Will post a pic up the next time. Nevertheless, it's really cute and sweet.

The girl also knows how to sing the Chinese nursery rhyme 'Ke Ren Lai' (When the guests come).

Original version:
Ke ren lai, kan Papa (The guest came to visit papa)
Papa bu zai jia (But Papa is not at home)
Wo qing ke ren xian zuo xia (I invited the guest to have a seat)
Zai jing yi bei cha (And served him tea)

Kaelyn's version:
Ke ren lai, kan Papa bu zai jia
Wo qing ke'en xian zuo xia
Airplane cha!

It's 80% accurate! I am impressed! Although i dont think she really knows the meaning. Note how the Yi bei cha became Airplane cha. We've filmed her on viewcam, will post it up next time.

My wish for Kaelyn is to be able to bite her food and vomit less! More of this in another post, it's a big issue for us now.

Meanwhile, enjoy the rest of Mother's Day with your mums/ kids.

NB: No photos these few blogs as David's hard disk got wiped out with all the photos too. So we are now in the 'desperately salvaging data' stage. Hence no photos / videos etc for now..

By the way, I used David's account thinking it's mine. So, no daddy is not wishing himself a Happy Mother's Day although he's quite sore about Mother's Day being more celebrated than Father's Day...
