Here I am ( again!)

Hi folks, I promised in my last message that I try not to go missing for so long so here I am again. I am keeping to my word ;-)

Just wanted to share a conversation I had with Adam ( my 5 year old boy) last night. He was lying in bed, after bed time story and lights are dimmed, playing with his huge array of soft toys on his bed. This is his routine every night. He gets his favourite soft toys ( always the same ten toys every night) and they will be having conversations and 'battles' with each other for about half hour before the 'director' falls asleep.

Anyway, he was playing with his red teddy bear when he suddenly asked me. I was in the room, reading by the bedside. Mum...how did Jesus made me? Did he stuff things into my body like this teddy bear?

CUTE.

Dad, who happened to be in the room, took over the conversation said, no...remember the egg and seed story we told you? ( we explained how babies are made about a year ago).....that's how you are made....when mum's egg met with dad's seed. Maybe he was being silly...or just to exasperate us...he said....mum's egg? Did she eat the egg boiled or fried?

FUNNY.

I told him...just close your eyes and go to bed please because mum has run out of answers.

NITE NITE!

Missing in Action (again)

Hiya all, so sorry I have taken such a long break again. I guess not having to blog the lesson plan weekly has turned me into a lazy worm! Time really flies an we are now almost halfway through the SWIS semester.

Classes have been going really well and I am constantly amazed how well behaved and adorable the kids are in class. I am sure mums and dads have different stories at home ;-) but they truly are good in class. I often catch myself in the midst of teaching, seeing their heads bend over in concentration and trying to follow a rhythm, and I tell myself - I love this job! I am having just as much fun as them!

On the personal front, Adam ( my 5 years old going on 12) told me, mummy....I love you infinity. I just explained to him what 'infinity' means. Makes your heart melt eh? This statement totally made up for what he said the other day. I took out an old pair of pants from the cupboard, put it on and asked dear hubby the classic question.....Do I look fat in this? The little one, who was in the room quickly chirped in....You don't look fat mummy, but your bottom looks really BIG! Gee.....thanks! :-) My hubby, of course, thought HIS son is a genius...and started laughing like a hyena!

Well folks....sorry again from the bottom of my heart for being so out of touch. Will try to be more consistent. Bye bye for now.....
