Needlework

I probably need to ask Mysha's teacher what she has been up to with this work, but for the past 2 weeks Mysha has been bringing home this neat thread work. Wonder if she learning to use a needle!

Mysha's cute laughter

This is the first time I explored using video on YouTube. Her laughter is so delightful and endearing that it was worth all the effort. Looking forward to adding more videos of her :)

On this occasion Mysha was enjoying every bit of her time on the Bedok reservior with Dolly and Sushil. Near the water there were so many small mosquitoes dancing on our heads. The voice is in background is Dolly's who is trying to animate flying them away and Mysha as you can see is tickled to the bone to see her.

Allah-hu-akbar

Ilyas and Dada usually call out to Mysha before praying so she can join in. This was just one of the moments when she decided to join. Both Ilyas and Mysha were praying so much in sync that I could not resist capturing the moment. Alhum-du-lillah.

INSEAD Olympics and Mysha's gun

This Saturday, INSEAD had organised a day full of games and fun at Sentosa aptly titled the "INSEAD Olympics". We trooped there, family and all and truly had a gala time. Mysha took fancy of the sharp shooting water gun. Once Ilyas taught her how to use it, she could not lay her hands off it. She tucked it right under her arm with an action ready to shoot. I had my spray, everyone else beware!

My pink ummbina

Ah!!! she meant an umbrella, but that's what she calls it. Ever tell her that its raining so we can't go out and she quickly retorts back saying, "But I can take my pink ummbina" .... now what do u say to that ?

Mysha's work

On this lazy Saturday morning, I saw Mysha school packet lying in the living room. I promptly opened it to see what Mysha had made that week. Seeing me open the bag, Mysha got all excited and screamed, "I will show you", so I let her. She laid out all the paintings she made and excitedly told me what colors they were ...

I'm a little teapot

Mysha has a new song now in her repertoire - "Im a little teapot, short and stout". Since last Friday, she has been singing it every now and then, with all the actions. Its quite a cute sight :)

Evening at Bedok Reservoir with Dolly and Shushil

Yesterday we planned an evening with Dolly and Sushil again. This time it was at Bedok reservoir (next to their house). Mysha had great fun in the play area and obviously was with Dolly all the time. Back at their home, Dolly gave her a 100 piece puzzle and play dough set. Mysha was delighted. After a evening full of play and fun, we had great home made dinner (thanx to Dolly). When it was time to go, Mysha refused to budge. So we told her to stay there. She promptly agreed and told me to leave the bag and bottle behind! So we decided to walk to the door in an attempt to make her realise what she was up to. But she was firm with her decision. She and Dolly when inside and she chose what bed she would sleep on what what stories Dolly would ready for her. Clearly she didn't need us.
