Wink Wink! Living life with Meaning and Inspiration
Kyle : I don't want to grow up so fast
Mom : Yeah, I don't want you to grow up so fast either
Kyle : Because when I am a big boy, I am not cute anymore
Mom : Aww…you will still be cute in my eyes
Kyle : Will you still love me when I am not cute anymore?
Mom : But of course, will love you always 
These days, he is extremely sticky and soppy.
These days, I have been neglecting this space. It's getting harder to find time to structure a post that is worth reading, that will not bore me, besides I don't want to just use this space for regular ranting. Not that I have plenty to gripe about at this point of my life, but so many things are happening, so fast that it is hard to even keep up and jot them all down.
Things are going well as a parent, despite being woken up at least once a night by Kyle coming into my room, whose complaints will usually revolve around how warm or cold he feels in the room. Somehow upon turning 4, the boy seem to have morphed into this clingy, whiney, sticky child, totally out of character. He surprised me last week by whining "Mommy…Mommy…" and then clinging onto my leg, refusing to let go. Despite spending the whole week (March school vacation) in the mornings with him, bringing him along to run errands, and having our favourite Japanese lunches. Could it be that there are some emotional issues not being met, despite spending time with him? Maybe. Or he could just be going through some phase and exhibiting some behaviour that stems from his demanding little self.
At other times, he just turns into this toilet-humour loving and boisterous almost 5 year old kid 
Just last Sunday, he started laughing loudly and hysterically when hb said something humourous to him. Then when hb said something teasingly to me, he joined in and laughed hysterically at me. He loves toliet humour these days and finds all sorts of 'toilet talk' extremely funny. I just exclaimed to hb that our son is not cute anymore. I always have this fear that when he loses all his pre-schooler cuteness, he will be that loud and annoying kid that only his parents will like
'Bi-polar 4'…I don't really like u very much right now.

Thanks to family and friends who were at Kyle's birthday party, we had a wonderful time…despite the craziness of having all 13 children in a room After this experience of planning the party and having an overload of printing and cutting dinosaurs' stuff, it will be a while before I think of having a party for Kyle in the subsequent years.
