Two. It's something special.

Something happens when one turns two.

It is like a switch being turned to two where either the fan goes faster or the volume gets louder. Maegan is both when she turned two.


Not only does she run faster, she now walks backwards while looking at you smiling.

She now talks in very clear sentences and comes home singing new Chinese songs she learns in school.

We can now have decent phone conversations with her while we are at work and she is gallivanting somewhere with her grandmother. (which happens often by the way)

Most importantly, she's beginning to ask for the toilet.

Many people call it the Terrible Twos.

I'm not so sure about that. Certainly not for us ...

yet. :o)

Turning 2

Our little Miss Maegan officially turns two today.

Why officially? Well, she has been, for the last few weeks, tell people she is two years old. But today, she is two.

And since she is two this year, she got two birthday parties. One in her school on Friday and one with friends and relatives yesterday.

Lucky girl you say?

I think so too. :o)

Happy Birthday Maegan!

Growing Up with speed

Kids can't stop growing do they?

Yes. I have crossed the mental barrier. I am officially calling Maegan a kid instead of baby.

"Why?" did you ask? Because she is growing up too fast. Way too fast.

Not only is she now in school every morning from 8.30am to 1.00pm at Little Skool House at Thomson Road, she now wears a school uniform to school. Since when do babies wear uniforms? And she looks great too!



Two weeks ago, Daphne and I was preparing to go out for dinner with Maegan. We got changed and stood by the door and waited for our little miss Maegan.

"Ready to go Maegan?"

"No. I want to watch Barney."

"But we are going out for dinner. You don't want to come?"

"No mummy. I want to watch Barney."

And with that, she sat on the sofa and watched Barney. Daphne and I had an unplanned date night but truth be told, we were more amused that our kid who is barely two can choose Barney over going out with her parents.

Sign of things to come? I hope not. :o(
