2Y (JP) - Daily Walk with Yee

Kinder Nursery
Today, while strolling, Yee saw flowers and happily said, "お花、おはな" flowers, flowers). At the park, there was a dog and Yee said, "あ。わんわん” (ah, woof, woof) Yee-chan truly likes dog very much.


人見先生 did it again. Another great hairdo for Yeeちゃん. I love it!

I enjoy looking at Yee's new hairdo so much that I took a video while she was eating.


Eating Honeydew
While eating honeydew, Yee looked at me and asked, "まま、おいしい" ("Ma ma, delicious?") Hearing her calling me 'ma ma' was a great treat this evening, as Yee has been calling me "dar dar" tonight.

Poor Yee, Neglected by Mummy
I was unable to play with Yee this evening. Besides being physical tired, I was having problem with my internet connection. It just kept getting disconnected. An even bigger frustration was that in Japan I have to use an English-speaking internet agent and its technical support is only available M-F (9-5.30pm), not 24hrs!?! And today is T.G.I.F!

Though I was neglecting Yee, I noticed what she was doing:

- Yee placed the ‘dancing chick’ on the diaper-changing mat, Yee was wiping the chicken’s butt with wet tissues. Then she suddenly asked the chicken, “No? ... Why?” [I would have laughed out loud if not for my bad mood]

- At one time, Yee could not get my attention and started to cry. After a while, I hugged her. Yee hugged me very tightly and cried very pitifully. I could feel her hurt as she felt deserted by me. I felt so guilty that I have put the internet over her.

Finally, I had to give up on the internet. Only God can help. I turned on a kids CD-rom on famous Chinese of the past and watched. As I was watching, Yee started to sing and did action of stretching her arms out and ‘opening and closing it’ like the mouth of a crocodile. When the outstretched arms clasped together, kids shouted excitedly “baa”. I recognize this action song as Hitomi sensei sang it on last Sunday ‘meet-the-parents’ session. I repeated the action after Yee and she was thrilled. Then she put her two clenched fists to her nose and said, “hana” and sang, “ah, ah, ah…” as she pulled one fist away from the other, as if stretching her nose. We repeated the actions countless times. Whenever I stopped doing, Yee would take my hands and bring them to my nose and signalled me to do the actions.

It was fun playing with Yee. And to be distraught by the failed internet connection is simply worthless and silly ... yet I want my internet connection back pretty badly!!!

... it 5:19 am on Saturday!! I was awaken at 4am and could not sleep. So I got up to try the internet. Again not working. So I typed this blog on winword and then transferred it to the blog. To my surprise, I was able to transfer it smoothly as the internet connection has "resurrected". Am a happy person now. Probably take a snack to feed my hungry stomach and climbed back to bed. Hopefully, Yee would not get up early today.
