Development

Faith seems to have changed again over the CNY holidays. She always does when she meets lots of people and have interactions.

She's been initiating conversations with other adults she meets and us. We noticed she's trying harder to communicate herself in terms of signs and words.

On the first day of CNY, she slipped the little paper bag we used to carry oranges for visits onto her arm and mumbled, '...op-ping...' When 4th grandaunt asked if she was going 'shopping', she looked at her and said happily, 'Mai cai ah!' (marketing) Everybody laughed in delight.

That afternoon when we were home after the morning visit, she went into the bathroom on her own. When I took her out and shut the bathroom door, she banged at the door and cried, '...our...our...' KH and I took a look at each other puzzled. Then KH took her towel and stood quietly next to her to see how she'd react. She grinned and laughed happily at the sight of the towel! Oh...she was too tired from all the fun and couldn't wind down to nap, so she wanted a shower! :D

The next day, when we visited Shellen. She showed me a toy cake and said, 'Cake...cut cake...eat cake...' WOW!!! She managed to join the words she learnt!

This morning, when we saw a dog on tv, she signed dog to me unmistakably! Both KH and I saw and cheered her, and she grinned. :)

When I was at the pc earlier this evening, she ran to me and gave me the sweetest, biggest, chimpanzee grin she could manage to get my attention! Hahahahaha...what else can I do with that lovely, naughty face? :) Switch off the pc la~

God was right -- of course, He is! I never looked back to regret the decision I made to become a SAHM; neither did KH. Thank You, God, for our family.
