My Life as A Mother, Timmy's Growing Up Moments Captured

I was overwhelmed with feelings when I read the following poems:
"I won't always cry, Mummy,
When you leave the room,
and my supermarket tantrums,
will end too soon.

I won't always wake, Daddy,
for cuddles through the night,
& one day you will miss,
Having a chocolate face to wipe.

You won't always wake to find my foot,
is kicking you out of bed,
or find me sideways on your pillow,
where you want to lay your head.

You won't always have to carry me in,
asleep from the car,
or piggy back me down the road,
when my little legs can't walk that far.

So...cherish every cuddle, remember them all.,
One day Mummy,  I won't be this small. "

copywrited from my children mean everything to me.

 

Note to Timmy:

Dear Timmy,

One day, when you read this,
we want to let you know,
that we are so glad and happy that God has entrusted you into our care.
We love you so much,
no matter what, we will always love you.

We hope that you will grow into a fine young man one day.

Love,
Papa and Mama.

Fuzzy Egg Experiment

Benny bought us 101 Science Experiments book, and we thought of trying out the first one.

I had some quail eggs in the fridge.
So, I thought of using it instead of the chicken egg.

We put each egg in a separate glass.
The blue glass was filled with water.
The transparent one was filled with vinegar.

The interesting part was:
The egg which was dipped in the vinegar started to fuzz not long after it was in it.
The calcium carbonate which was in the egg shell dissolved, thereby creating a fizz.

The longer the egg stayed in the vinegar, the more fizz there was.
And after sometime, the brown part on the surface of the quail egg started to float.
Interesting.

We can see in the middle photo, the comparison between the egg in the vinegar and the one in the water.
The one in the water remained the same.
But the one in the vinegar, fizzed.

After some time, the egg in the vinegar has lost its brown spots, as you can see from the photo below.
It has a smooth skin now. hehehehe..

Sea World Indonesia

Yesterday, we visited SeaWorld Indonesia at Ancol.
It was fun.
The trip was supposed to be last week, but because Benny and Timmy had tummy ache last week,
so we postpone it to the week after.

Timmy is entering a new milestone.
Eversince this 3rd grade, he refused to watch Disney Junior anymore.
Everytime this TV is on, it's National Geographic Wild. hahahaha...
So, we thought of bringing him to SeaWorld, to see the fishes right before his eyes.

It was fun!

Disney Junior vs National Geographic Wild

Eversince Timmy enters 3rd grade school, he refused to watch Disney Junior anymore.
When he was little up to 2nd grade, whenever the TV's on, it's Disney Junior.
He didn't like other cartoon channels too. Just Disney Junior.

The fact that he refuses to watch Disney Junior anymore amazes me.
Now, whenever the TV is on, it's National Geographic Wild. Hahahahaha...

Well, I have to admit that I do like to watch NatGeo Wild.
I think he gets it from me. Like mother like son? :)

But, I'm still amazed that he totally switched his TV preference.
Sometimes, I deliberately changed the channel to Disney Junior and he would say:
"Mom, I don't like to watch this anymore. It's so childish."

Oh...I guess it's another growing-up stage that I have to go through.   Hahahahaha...
Another milestone.
