Sending out another letter to Santa

I hope Santa gets it in time to prepare my present

Even before Santa receives my letter, I got a chance to see him.

He was such a jolly man, he loves to sing and dance so much that................. I had forgotten to tell him what I wanted for Christmas.

When he asked to send a letter out, this che-che and me gave the letter to the elf.

I enjoyed the show so much. Most importantly, mummy managed to get the coupons for the photo session. (only 20 were available each session)

A Letter to Santa

I forgot to write my letter to Santa. So I can only do it today and this is the acknowledgement note I received from them.

I can't wait to see what Santa writes back to me. And if he can give me what I asked for.

Dear Athena,

Thank you for sending your letter to Santa.

This is a very busy time here at the North Pole and Santa has lots of letters to read but he does read and answer each and every one.

It usually takes Santa two days to answer a letter. Please come back then to Santa's Secret Village at www.northpole.com. You will need your name and password to read your letter.

My 4th Birthday

Mummy, daddy, Aunty Zep, Aricia and me went to our new house yesterday. And today, they are celebrating my birthday with me.

Me

First to arrive was Aunty Angeline, Uncle Aaron and Alexandra mei-mei. I was very shy with mei-mei but after some time we were blowing bubbles.

More people came, people whom I don't know, children whom I haven't seen in a long while. But anyway, I am happy as long as my children (school friends) came. We were playing with balloons and running about. It was so fun!
Seen here running and playing with her friends
Later ma-ma caught me bringing up my friends to the room to play. And then I lead them to the crafts area :
Let's do some crafts.
Mummy then remembered about the favor bags and since I'm the important person - I had to give out the favors to my friends.

Then we played the pinata. It was so fun, I managed to get alot of sweets.

Then the children were standing around the table for their cakes.

I was craving for this.

We went to Wild Wild Wet after that. I had so much fun today. Best thing? Mummy cannot stop me from eating candies etc... so I helped myself as much as I can (but I still asked for permission)

The birthday photos are here

Birthday in school

About 2 weeks ago, mummy asked me to choose my birthday cake for me to celebrate in school with my children. I chose this cake with a car because I want to keep it.
She then prepared small bags of sweets for my children. Mummy said she didn't want to do Princess theme for me in school, as she can't order a small cake with the Princess picture on it. In the end, the favours were simply wrapped. Mummy says most importantly are that the children likes the sweets.
At 3plus, after we got up from our nap, Ms Chan gathered us together. Mummy was present (at the window) and she asked for my children to look at her.Then they sang a birthday song
I gave out the cakes to my children while Ms Chan helped me cut the cake. I first gave to Wei Teng's table, I missed out on Braxton (mummy pointed it out to me after I've given to Eunice Gwee). I want to tell mummy that I wanted to share my cake with my boyfriend Braxton!And she had to spoil the atmosphere for me!!

Photos of the children enjoying the cake

I love cakes!

I can't wait for Saturday to come. Mummy says I have a bigger cake.

This is the pressie given by the school

I wonder why papa was so secretive..

and told me "I bring you gai-gai.. don't tell Aunty Zet"

We took the train to somewhere far far away. I kept asking papa if we're getting off the next station; he kept saying "no"
After a long long time, we got off the train. The first thing I saw in the new shopping mall is the candy shop that mummy brought me a few days ago. I was so happy until she told me "no more candies & chocolates"
Mummy took some photos of me :

Do I look like a star?

If only.....................

everyday would be like today - all I needed to do was to say "I dowan to go to school" and mummy lets me. One of the rare chance, mum agreed and brought me out today. I thought we were headed for Paragon but it wasn't so. Nevertheless, I was happy wherever mum brought me. I had a big bowl of bee hoon with fishballs at Coca after that we went shopping for some more things for my party. I thought mum said it was for my party, so I went everywhere and ran around the shop and told her "mummy, I want this for my party yay.............." and threw things inside the basket. She took them out but once she didn't know I secretly changed the 15 pieces white metallic balloon to a bigger pack of balloons - only after she left the building . (neh neh poo poo) She was quite mad coz' she didn't want to keep so many extra balloons. She brought mama to Burger King to have a seat while she went to other shops. I was feeling rather tired as I hadn't had my nap at all. The Aunty gave me a crown. She came back with more bags and I was very surprised and happy she bought me a pink balloon to match my dress.

Yay! I'm a Princess

After that, we walked around a little to see some Christmas decorations on sale. Mummy was eyeing on some things but she can't manage to carry so many things so she's leaving it to the next trip.

We left for another place which didn't take mummy long to drive to. I simply didn't understand when mummy told me beforehand "don't ask mummy to buy you anymore sweets at the place I'm going to" but anyhow I did agree.
And you know what? Mummy gave in to me when I said I wanted this. She bought some thing for me extra as well. I'm so happy.
But anyway I still went around the shop saying "I want this for my party." This time I added a new sentence "I want to share with my friends." Nah! Mummy said "No, unless I sell your mei-mei." NO!NO!NO! I didn't want to sell my mei-mei.
We still left the place with a big bag, mostly stuffs mummy wants for herself. I think the 1-month confinement period did drive her crazy and craving for so many things

Kiddy ride

Mummy was getting tired too. We left after dinner back for home, and I fell asleep in the car with mei-mei. I wonder where mummy will bring me to the next gai-gai trip.

My cute little sister

Yes! She's the one who's wasting milk!!!

Mummy did the flower tattoo for me

Why are they laughing?

All along I knew 妹妹's chinese name is 陈诗璇 and mine is 陈昭绫. I then mentioned "ay, both 妹妹 and my name same same hor? We both got 陈." Mummy and daddy looked at one another and mummy said "of course same lah! It's daddy's surname."

I was feeling a little smart and added "I know papa's name is 陈之财." They were surprised that I knew the artiste name but I changed it later to 陈吃菜. They teased me and gave me a new name: 陈吃鱼(鱼's my favourite),妹妹's name is now 陈喝奶 and mummy is 张吃chocolate.

Daddy's birthday

I am so happy to eat a cake because today is daddy's birthday. Mummy say that when it comes to cake, I will usually quietly take the cake; sit on the floor and enjoy the cake. Whereas when it comes to food, I will not feed myself and start running about.

Mummy said this year I will have a special treat, I will have 2 birthday cakes (again). Ohh.. I can't wait for my birthday.

Short outing

I am surprised that mummy and daddy came by to pick me up. We had dinner together with dua-gu and ma-ma before daddy & mummy brought me to Tampines Mall. Daddy needed to go down Starhub to do something, mummy brought me to the toys department in Isetan. ON our way to Times Bookstore, we passed by Chocolat World, I asked mummy to buy me chocolates but she refused. If I had known I wouldn't have eaten 3 Koala chocolates infront of mummy earlier on in ma-ma's house.
But she did buy something for me from the Bookstore. She told me not to spoil the markers, otherwise nothing from Crayola anymore!
We made our way home after that as all the shops were closing. It's a very short outing but I was also quite tired, fell asleep about half an hour after we reached home.

Mdm Ong

Mummy said that she will scan the photo of me being carried by Mdm Ong 4 years ago. So, here it is.

Me outside the nursery on my discharged day -30th Nov 02 (5 days old)

4 years later - Mdm Ong carrying mei-mei and I'm all grown up!
So, I wonder if there's another picture of mei-mei older with a yunger sibling??
(I heard mummy screaming NO..o...o)
