P is for Port Adelaide

Daddy introduced us
To Australian footy
To his favourite team
And to his team's hallowed grounds

O is for Outdoors

Today
We left our books at home
Basked in the sunshine
All day long.

G is for Grapes

Thank goodness
You have given the
Milk arrowroot biscuits
A rest
For now.

S is for Sharing

Twice more the fun
When you share.

Anton Lee @ 1.6

A year and a half
Here's what you can do
Feed yourself better
Put your toys away
Place dirty clothes in laundry
And even get Mommy her slippers!

You can also say and
Repeat more words

Fly like super Anton
(That was not a good idea
You landed on the floor with a
Resounding thud.
Ouch!)

F is for Friday

This is the smile
That meets Mommy
When Anton and Daddy
Pick her up from work
Friday, COB
(that means Close of Business)

C is for Childcare

We started with childcare last Tuesday. Childcare is where Daddy and Mommy bring you to when they go to work. You see, we have moved to a new place where your Yaya cannot come with us. There are trained personnel at childcare who look after you and play with you while Mommy and Daddy are at work. There are lots of other kids there too you can play with and whose mommies and daddies are also at work.

You cried big fat tears when we left you at childcare last week. Mommy cried a lot too. This is not easy for us. Mommy rings up childcare during the day to ask how you are, if you look happy, if you have eaten, and whether you had taken a nap. When last week ended, you looked so exhausted and miserable with your runny nose and nasty cough.

Very soon, you’ll see, you will have fun at childcare. You will make new friends, play new games, and learn a lot of interesting things. It will also prepare you for school. When you are old enough to start with school, you will not be that boy crying for his mommy. You will be big, ready, and excited to tackle Kindy!

S is for Smile

Mommy is in-between jobs
For one whole week
It's just Mommy and
Cheeky Anton Lee!
