Teaching Ethan to Appreciate the Gifts that He Receives

Dearest Ethan Baby,

Mummy is proud of you that you have been saying "Thank You" to the people around you recently. Mummy wants to help you to value your gifts, too. Mummy is always tempted to shower you with toys and material objects but Mummy knows that overindulgence doesn't bring happiness to you and often may leads you to be less appreciate of what you have. My baby, whatever Mummy is doing now, no matter whether is it pleasant to you or not, is to prepare you for your future. Love!


Love always,
Mummy!

Ethan vs Work

Dearest Ethan Baby,

Mummy often struggle between work and you. Thanks GOD that he is always constantly

reminding Mummy that you are on my top priority over work. There are many times when Mummy wishes to put in more time and effort on my work but I decided to save my time for you instead. Thanks GOD that he is also always reminding Mummy that time is so short and precious with you, once this stage is over, I can't ever come back to it. Mummy believes that all her sacrifices are worth it especially for you, my dearest baby.

Love Always,
Mummy!

Ethan's First Halloween Party in School on Monday 31 October 2011





Dearest Ethan Baby,

Daddy and Mummy doesn't know what to dress you up for your Halloween Party in school. I love the little cute spider costume but you seem to be very resistant about it. We brought you just a pumpkin cape and a pumpkin carrier in the end. Daddy suggested that you wear your little Spongbob top and bottom to go along with it. =) Baby, may you enjoy this little party in school. Love ya.

Ethan's Fears

Dearest Ethan Baby,


Mummy realized that you have so much fears recently. Mummy had read that it is normal for you to be fearful at this stage. Thanks GOD. Anxiety is a natural condition that helps you cope with new experiences and protects you from danger. It may also be because of your highly active imagination that make you worry about make-believe creatures, death, disaster, and pain. My baby, your fears will fade as you become more secure in yourself and your environment. Rest assured that Mummy will be there to assure you and walk through with you till then.


Love ya always,
Mummy!

Ethan is a Picky Eater!!!



Dearest Ethan Baby,

Everybody said that you have slim down a lot and Mummy feels so, too especially after three weeks of being sick with poor appetite. You are so picky nowadays that even a tiny little bit of vegetables is not allowed on your bowl. Your favorite food are chicken rice, fried egg and fishball for the time being. If it is not any one of those, you will refuse to eat it. Mummy hopes that it is only a phrase that you are in now because you need different types of nutrients to grow up and be healthy boy. =)

Love always,
Mummy!

Please help me to nurture him into a happy young man who loves you and bring blessings to the people around him. Thank you LORD.

Amen.

Happiness & Unhappiness

Dearest Ethan Baby,

Mummy needs to learn that it's okay for you to be unhappy sometimes because it's simply part of life. Swooping in to vanquish your unhappiness may sends the wrong message to you that it's not okay to feel sad or mad. Solving every problem for you may also robs you of the opportunity to work through your feeling on your own. You are beginning to understand more and more of the words you hear, yet your ability to articulate your feelings and needs is limited. Mummy can't assure you that you will always be happy nor can Mummy take away your unhappiness but Mummy assure you that I will walk through with you each unhappy, sad and unpleasant experiences.


Love ya always,
Mummy!

The Singlish Dilemma

Dearest Ethan Baby,

Mummy cringe every time when I hear you speak Singlish. Mummy feels guilty




because I know that you learnt most of it from me. Mummy is making every effort now to speak proper English more consciously. It is a challenge for Mummy because I am not growing up in an English speaking family. Gong Gong and Po Po does not speak in English. Mummy wants to learn to effectively use both languages, Singlish and proper English to build relationships under appropriate circumstances. May you benefit more from the way Mummy speaks. =)


Love Always,
Mummy!
