Black Dessert

Sofia had black sesame paste for dessert the first time today.

She looks like a dirty mouse who had just eaten some stolen cream.

A Taste of KL Life

My parents-in-law are here to visit and Daddy and I felt happy to have a long weekend to spend time with them here. We decided to bring everyone out to have a taste of KL wanton mee at Jalan Ipoh. Daddy and I happened to find this coffeeshop by chance and we found the wanton mee very tasty, of course, a generous dose of lard works wonders as a tast enhancer.

Sofia enjoyed the noodles very much too, other than having fun playing with it.

Sofia looks so ungraceful here, eating with her leg propped up on the chair.

After lunch, we had a rare opportunity to be invited to a friend's house in Saujana Golf course. It was a really a big and beautiful house. The house was sitting on 2 acres of land right in the golf course and it was surrounded by greenery. Beautiful. Our friend had a cosy private swimming pool, unfortunately we did not have our swim gear with us.

The house was too big to be captured in a single shot.

Sofia took about half an hour to warm up, fortunately there were three rabbits kept as pets and they helped broke the ice. She was so fascinated and was going ga-ga over them. The next thing I knew, she was zooming around the house like a little rat, sniffing out all the decorative stuff in the house. Then I started to have cold feet. Those crystals and ornaments looked like they worth an arm and a leg. What if Sofia breaks one of those? That would blow my bank account and cost me a couple of fingers as well?

So I quickly bring Sofia outdoors. There was a small field within the house and soon, Sofia was having a good time running and playing around the field. For the first time, I felt safe for Sofia to run barefooted on the grass. I can almost be sure that there is no broken glass or cigarette stubs to hurt her. It felt really good to have our feet rested on the carpet grass instead of shoes. Sofia was not very used to the crispy grass and soon switched to the pebble stone pavement instead.

She felt a lot more at ease on the pebblestome pavement.

It was a really good workout for both of us, we ended up sweaty and smelly but i enjoyed myself very very much.

I heard there is a botanical gardens somewhere in KL, think I have to bring Sofia there one of these weekends.

My Eighth Day in School - w/o Mummy

"Sofia is adapting well to school and we are seeing improvement everyday.", the principal told me when I picked Sofia up today.

I checked my measuring tools and they tell the same story.

Water - Not finished.
Milk - Untouched.

No more crying when we met at 1130pm, Sofia even went to play again and relunctantly left me when I asked her to.

Verdict : Occasional shower

My Seventh Day in School - w/o Mummy

School was better today, though Sofia still cried when we parted.

The water and milk were only half consumed when I pick her up and no more bawling when she saw me, which was a great consolation.

Verdict : Thunderstorm

My Sixth Day in School - w/o Mummy

Sofia is back in school today after a week's break. I think she forgot all about it after one week.

Thus this morning was extremely messy, tears were everywhere and she was crying and screaming when I left. What a bad start.

I packed a full bottle of water and a full bottle of milk (180ml) for her in the bag. These are my tools for measuring how much comfort she needs in school. When I picked her up today, she has already finished all the water and milk. She cried again when she saw me.

Verdict : Catastrophe
