2Y4M (JP) - Daily Walk with Yee
Breakfast
Mummy asked Yee to say grace together.
Yee said, "grace ない."
Then Yee held Mummy's hand and put them together.
After that, Yee said, "ごえん” clapped her hands together, smile and nodded her head.
Mummy said, "いただきます” （itadakimasu = "I humbly receive" before a meal).
Below is a short clip from youtube reflecting this Japanese culture
Toilet Training
- After Yee had pooed, Mummy let Yee wore panties for the whole morning. Yee peed twice ... on the floor.
- In the evening, Yee told Daddy that she wanted to poo. Daddy brought her to the toilet and she peed into the toilet bowl. Daddy and Mummy stood by the door and praised her. Yee was delighted with her own achievement.

2Y4M (JP) - Daily Walk with Yee
Fruitful Morning
There was no Japanese class this morning. And the family had a very fruitful morning.
- Daddy and Mummy listened to the sermon by Pastor Rony Tan of Lighthouse Evangelism, Singapore. And then they discussed and prayed together.
- Mummy let Yee wore panties (no diaper) this morning. Yee would tell Mummy, "wee, wee, toilet" and "poo, poo, toilet". But she ended up peeing on the floor. Mummy just explained to Yee that she must tell Mummy before she peed. While Mummy was busy cleaning up, Daddy saw Yee in the midst of pooing and told Mummy. Mummy quickly grabbed Yee and put her on the toilet seat. This was the first time Yee pooed in the toilet bowl. Daddy and Mummy praised Yee.
Piggy Ride
Little Flying Fish
- Yee would sit on the steps of the pool and waited for Daddy's signal. When daddy pretended to be doing something else, Yee would get his attention. When Daddy did the "1, 2 and 3" hand gesture. Yee would smile, dive into the pool, swim (doggie-style) to Daddy who was standing 1.8m away.
- A mum with two kids was standing by the stairs and she was surprised that Yee swam.
- Mummy think that sometimes adults underestimate what a kid can do. Thanks to Daddy, who is more daring than Mummy, and let Yee try many things.

Kinder Nursery
We played blocks in the room today. Yee-chan connected a long chain of blocks. She made something like a spin-top and was good at spinning it. Yee-chan, together with her friends, had a great fun spinning the blocks.
Teethbrushing
It was interesting that after brushing her teeth that Yee would return all the stuff to the washroom. Mummy did not ask her to do it. And she did not want Mummy to follow her.
First Taste of Sweet Corn
Daddy bought sweet corn for Yee to try. Obviously, Yee loves it.

Thursday, September 17, 2009
During reading time, Mummy took the Ballet School Book to familiarize Yee with the movements and exercise. Mummy showed Yee her ballet costume and shoes. Yee wanted to put them.
Yee did her "turning" a few rounds. Unfortunately, Mummy did not manage to catch it on video.

2Y4M (JP) - Daily Walk with Yee
Kinder Nursery
We went to "東沖" park today. Yee-chan stood in front of the swing and said, “せんせー" (teacher). When she sat on the swing, she said, “せんせー" again. When pushed, she was very happy. When she was sitting on the swing, a cat appeared in the park. Yee-chan looked at the cat and said,"ねこ、ねこ" (cat, cat). Yee was coughing during her nap.
Thank God for Protection
While Yee was climbing up the stairs, she lost her balance and fell backward. Thank God that Mummy was behind her and caught her on time. Mummy was glad that she decided to walk behind Yee today as Mummy sometimes walked ahead of Yee. This was the first time that Yee fell from the stair. Mummy told herself that from now onwards, she would always be behind Yee when she climbed up the stair and infront of her when she walked down.
Teeth-brushing
Instead of holding the bucket for Yee, Mummy decided to let Yee do everything herself.
