I’m amazed looking back at the photos of 2010 how much a 3-year-old can get up. Here are just a few highlights to celebrate Anthony’s year!
Hello Nursery 1.. Welcome for Sunshine 6! You seemed so small when you started the year… Small but independent. Your teachers called me one time too many to discuss your preference for “doing things at your own pace and sometimes just doing your own thing” (full marks for independent thinking, low marks for compliance - I really didn’t think they should expect so much of 3yos!)… Still, you managed to keep up and enjoy every moment, from Paper factory & NTUC box shopping excursions, to St James Kinders funfair, and sharing your birthday with your classmates with your favourite green kaya cake….!
You’re a star at entertaining yourself… Always coming up with new ideas for stuff to do, make and build. You discovered the joys of role-playing a soldier, a construction worker, an lego engineer, an insect, an animal… One day, you became a jeweller and made me a necklace out of Audrey’s beads “because I love you, Mummy”…
Then there was the WWW - Wonderful Wild World – an endless treasure trove of obstacles to conquer and wild things to discover (including but not limited to mushrooms, insects & other creepy crawlies)… Brave & chivalrous (most of the time!)…
Because of you and your love for nature, 2010 was the Buggiest Year ever for all of us. You set about diligently to learn all about your favourite spiders & scorpions, only to spout words like arachnid, venomous, paralysing, spinneret, tarantulas to shock us. We worked creepy crawlies into our holiday itineraries just for you (and your best friend Aidan) - spiders/scorpions in Cameron, snakes in Bangkok. Hey, come to think of it, you even got the Chickenpox bug - and shared it with Audrey!
So these are SOME of your highlights, our sweet little Spider Crab Scorpion – you make every day a wonderful surprise for all of us just by being wonderful, creative, brave YOU! I have to get this posted before the clock strikes midnight so we can welcome the new year together.
May 2011 be for you 365 days filled with delicious, delightful new adventures!
