Little Mr Sunshine
1/10/21 Have you watched “soul”? While the Chinese forum is mostly fascinated by this movie (maybe 3D version is great!), it appears only so so to my taste. I am quite amused by the cute 22 and the real-looking NYC streets in the movie though 😀
Today’s blog is named after one of my favorite movies 😉 …
What I am mostly proud of Amos so far is his bright smiles and crazy spirits. He is born with a sense of humor. One day, I waked up and found my weight room looks like this:
One time, we were watching a gala. He saw the scene something like on the left and asked “mama, what she is holding” “a microphone” A minute later, he saw a scene on the right, he asked “mama, is this also a microphone?” Wow, 0.5 shot learning!
Similar things happen often. One day after my boxing bag is installed, he said “mama, see this boxing bag” (on the right) 🙂
One day, he decided to make some new fashionable underwear for himself, using … his diaper bag. See below:
The left materials are made for a top:
and then put on a paper train he made for styling, following my suggestion. Oh, he made some pose too to star in my picture
The story is not yet over. Next day, in the morning, I opened his closet and tried to get some clean clothes for him for the day. His fashionable outfit jumped out of his closet 🙂
He is very amazed by firetrucks, ambulances, police cars and airplanes, and did a lot of artwork for them, from 2D to 3D. I never suggested such stick-paper-together or 3D techniques to him so I wander where he learned them. He told me “I just knew things :)”
My toilet paper rolls and paper towel rolls are never round because:
I never know there is a rainbow in my house!
I also never know when we open a toilet paper roll, it is a diamond like this.
Parenting is like love education. I am certainly not the one who loves kids in general, but when this little dude wanted to buy a shirt printed with “love mama like crazy” and wear it days and don’t want to change it, you naturally will be willing to give him a good apple and leave yourself a not-so-good one. This also adds a new flavor in my life. Before, I have very minimum tolerance for people and that’s very dangerous as a teacher. Nowadays, whenever I started acting aggressive, I typically wait until the finals/holidays are over. I will think that he/she is also some one’s most lovable son/daughter. How sad their moms will be if I handle it inappropriately!
Some of my friends already sent their little kids to various (online) classes to learn skills. We are still at the stage of playing whatever. Sometimes, I bought toys for him because I myself want to play 🙂 For example, I bought a scooter for him, and then I am the one who only played it. My neighbours probably are horrified to see someone who wanders around wearing strange clothes and riding a tiny scooter like a retarded 😀
