xoxoxo Happy Birthday, Princess xoxoxo


Can't believe she turned 6! The day she was born was like yesterday.


Per our princess's request, mom made brownies and blue-berry rice crispy sweet treats for her birthday celebration in school.


Family dinner celebration in Lambardie's on the Sound Restaurant in Port Jefferson Country Club. Isn't her beautiful?!
Side point: Toured through all the party rooms of the Country Club after dinner, our prideful princess's comment "Not impressed enough to host her wedding here. Have to look for somewhere more beautiful!" Daddy, please prepare your bank account!!!


Trip to our town beach before dinner to take advantage of today's summer-like weather.


She was also made 'Super Star of the Week'. We celebrated both events in her class.

謝謝禮物



收到大家姐寄來的生日礼物大家都非常高兴.你们真有心!小朋友大热晴天着雨褸在屋企行来行去,兴奋不已!只有一位撅长咗嘴,"点解没我份?我都乖!放工返来有帮手洗碗揍仔.下次返香港带个大喼,自己买玩具!"后来发现Thomas's Friend Henry Choo-Choo Train, '可能这是买给我的!' 但我认为二年级字贴更适合他.'二家姐从小督你写字.乖乖练好这本,我买一个大lego比你!'又撅长嘴...

Singulair is back

Do-Do was on Singulair for her allergy in the whole winter. We took her off that last month when winter was officially over. Several days ago, she started coughing. Could it be a cold? Took her to the doctor. Guess what? She is back on Singulair again at least for the remaining of the pollen season. Poor thing!

Let the #s speak


Americans contribute about 1/4 of the world's greenhouse-gas emissions, the equivalent of 54,000 LBS of CO2 per person per year!!!!!!!!!
*** 17,000 LBS of CO2 equivalent/year by using 1,100 KWH of electricity/month
*** 8,800 LBS of CO2 equivalent/year by using 6,300 cubic feet of natural gas/month
*** 1,100 LBS of CO2 equivalent/year by creating 4.5 LBS of trash/day
*** 8,900 LBS OF CO2 equivalent by driving 160 miles /week
*** 1,000 LBS of equivalent by flying 1,900 miles/year

Walk across...

John-John's new adventure: climbs onto Do-Do's bed, then up to the window stand, and walk across to sister's bookshelf to reach the stuff animals on top of the shelf (about 7 feet high)!!! He almost gave me a heart attack! When caught in action, he proclaimed "John-John 沒有摔哭 (didn't fall and cry)." Do-Do has 'walk across America' in school. I guess walking across America has to start from walking across window stand. 橫渡長江也需從橫渡窗臺開始吧!

老豆揍仔(爸爸帶孩子),鍛練身體

老豆給兒子穿衣,小型馬拉松都跑完了 (因要滿屋追兒子之故),兒子不是褲子歪了,就是‘鴛鴦腳’ ﹣﹣﹣一只有襪子,另一只赤腳。
有一回先生大喊 “兒子的褲子短的像馬車夫的褲子!“我心想,又要去買了!經查看,原來褲頭被卷了兩卷!再長的也要變capri。不過兒子倒頗能體諒老子的苦楚:一次我外出了,老豆送兒子上床。兒子一聽搖籃曲換了版本(走音版),立刻建議 “不唱lullaby,唱ABC。“ 小小年紀就明白退而求次,寥勝於無的人生哲理。

Mistake of the Toothfairy

My bluetooth was mystically lost last Sunday. Francine had raised a very good question when I bought the piece "Why would you called it a 'blue tooth'? Does it have anything to do with teeth?" Wai-Hong didn't want me to feel bad about my absentmindedness. He guessed the tooth-fairy came, but didn't find Francine's tooth. Mistakenly, she must thought a 'blue' tooth was also a tooth! He is funny and creative! Two days later, church office called to tell me that someone had turned in a bluetooth. Ha, ha, tooth-fairy finally realized that a bluetooth is not the kind she was looking for. Wai-Hong said "Tooth-fairy attends Sunday service too? Good for her!"
