Belated Christmas Present

Zaky couldn't decide on what he wanted for Christmas. I didn't want to buy him some trashy toys; the kids are getting a tad too old for toys. Now, new toys barely captured their interest for a day before they headed to the shelf for exile.  He agreed that we would buy him his Christmas present when he finally found what he really wanted.

He did bug for a segway or hoverboard. Unfortunately, they were both deemed too dangerous and expensive by mummy dearest. Next on his list is the skateboard. I was unwilling to buy it for him bcos he is already a timebomb to himself and his surrounding when he is on his 2 feet, what's more on a moving board and 4 wheels.

He must have done something to Daddy Lim bcos after Batam, Daddy Lim suddenly agreed to buy him the skateboard. Maybe Daddy Lim suddenly remembered a childhood dream or something. Lol. They were so enthusiastic about it such that Daddy Lim drove him to West Coast Plaza to buy the skateboard after our return from Batam. It was already evening when we finished dinner with my brother's family. So super onz. Lucky boy.

Of course it has to be put on test immediately. The agreement is that he has to have his full protection every time he uses his skateboard.

Daddy Lim's attempt. I hope it can hold his weight. Haha.

The boy picked up balancing on the skateboard very quickly. He was a ltitle upset though bcos Feline tried his skateboard and received plenty of praises from Popo, much more than him. Zzzzz.

Yday morning, there was no school. Lil Shauna was upset that I went to the gym without her. I ended up bringing her for rollerblading.

Zaky wouldnt give up any chance to practice his skateboarding. He ended up a very upset though bcos he couldn't do the right turn.

That boy is stubbornly impatient and gets upset when he couldn't do what he envisioned but how to run when you haven't learn how to walk? And when he gets upset, it is impossible to convince him to practice. It only meant that it was time to stop and head for breakfast. Haha.

Maybe it is just me - the perfect ingredient for his whines and tantrum. I guess he would soon get it if he can get past his tantrums and put in enough hard work.

Anyway, belated Merry Christmas little boy!
