Bubbles,Baby,Barber and a Bumble Bee

Posted by tyan (Singapore, Singapore) on 17 April 2008 in People & Portrait.

Last Saturday,my nieces went over to my parents' place,while i also brought the boys with me there where i gave tuition.Hub was occupied with a full-day course and i was quite nervous as to how i could cope as i had to teach 4 students back to back from 8 to 2.I brought along snacks,animal dvd,and this bubble gun.My sis gave her ballet classes a miss so she could help with the kids,which i was really grateful for. I took some pictures of the children playing with bubbles. Even the 2 younger ones were enjoying themselves.

******************************************************************
Sorry i may be missing in action now and then.Both boys are at home and its near impossible for me to set my foot into the study room where i blog. I read that Singapore may be facing its most serious hand,foot andmouth disease outbreak since the epidemic which killed seven children 8 years ago. More than 1,000 children fell ill last week- the highest number of weekly infections since 2001.Gosh.Even adults are not spared,in fact the virus can be even more serious in adults.So wash your hands before and after you use the toilet,eat and come home from public places.I might as well just lock ourselves at home,how's that?

The HFMD is really scary. We're keeping Robyn at home now too, no childcare. It's an opportunity to also let her recover from the never-ending cough, cold and ear infection. Told my MIL that it's really very serious this time round. Even a 7 y/o isn't spared...she's got brain infection. Let alone the immunity of a 3 y/o.

On days that I'm not teaching, I'll bring her for the Chinese tui-na. Hopefully, the tui-na will help to improve her health.
