Week 179!
WOW... it seemed long time since I've last updated this space...! This boy is growing up way too fast. I really missed him in his "infant-form"... now he's learning to throw tantrum by taking off his underpants and kicking it in high in the air. I served him his 1st stroke of cane (
actually 2 strokes when he refuses to stop crying and fussing when I trying to get him to brush teeth and wash up) for acting that way yesterday. #guiltymom
I always feel my son has very good memory - or is either that, I nagged at him too much that it actually embossed into his brain even though he act like he wasn't paying attention or repeat his mistake again and again... a lot of times he actually recites what I don't like him to do, what he did was wrong (
during bedtime when he is with his Papa).... and he knew it why he was beaten etc, but he just being very ego at that present moment when I lectured him. #sigh #stubbornasbull #parenting
#thingsnathanielsays
He says "sunner-ni" (
suddenly), "wrong-erly" (
wrongly)...
