<P>Yes, birthday week! We ran 3 parties during her birthday week! The first one with all families, the second one with our friends, and the final one with her own friends!</P>
<P>The parties were great and fantastic! I was really touching for her growing...compare to last one-year-old party, seems she knew nothing about birthday. And this year, she enjoyed singing birthday song, blowing out the candle, and greeting from everyone.</P>
<P>Time run fast, and my baby grown fast too! I always love u, my dearest Rin.</P>

The school was recommended by so many moms. That is a international nursary, my baby supposed to learn through games and fun.</P>
<P>Before I went there, I was requested to prepare a lunch box for my baby, it should be able to show my knowledge in nutrients and diet. After a long consideration, I made my baby "Hamburg with tomato and pineapple", and with some blueberry for her snack.</P>
<P>Once my baby and I arrived the school, I was led to the Principle's room while my baby was heading to the playground with other kids.</P>
<P>"Would you please tell me, your theory of grow a kid?"</P>
<P>"Why people keep telling family education is very important for kid under 3 years old?"</P>
<P>"Since you are a full-time mother, why you would like to keep your kid in nursary rather than take care by yourself? And in your expectation, how our nursary can assist you in educate your kid?"</P>
<P>"What kind of food you give to your kid every day? What is the daily schedule of your kid?"</P>
<P>....and 10 more questions I did not remember so well..</P>
<P>It was quite a hard interview...And this is my first time to have interview for being a mother. I should say thanks to the school, which give me a chance to make up my mind...How can I be a better mother...</P>
<P>Anyone can share?</P>]]></description><link>http://www.giveness.com/member/cancan/blog/view/1d1ed3ce-7a38-4935-ab71-2353abea2a72</link><guid>http://www.giveness.com/member/cancan/blog/view/1d1ed3ce-7a38-4935-ab71-2353abea2a72</guid><pubDate>Thu, 14 Jun 2007 11:14:02 GMT</pubDate><category>baby</category><category>education</category><category>motherhood</category><category>nursary</category></item><item><title>Thanks my dear!</title><description><![CDATA[<P>Thanks very very very much for your gift!

He is going to be ...old guy? At least his memory is getting to like an old guy...</P>
<P>I have been spent a lot of time on preparing the food menu. And the dessert part would be quite important to a party...as my thought. Try to imagine all friends having nice tea or coffee, enjoying nice dessert...that would be so great!</P>
<P>After a long consideration, I have decided to make 1. Original Cheesecake 2. Bailey cheesecake (both in cups) 3. Butter cookies with lemon favour (a bit lemon can help digestion). </P>

<P>Will prepare a home-made birthday cake tomorrow! The topic of this year ...will be BROWNIE again....(My husband loves brownie...he requests to have brownie as birthday forever and ever...)   </P>

He was a Austrian and raised in Vienna.</P>
<P>Klimt did murals and paintings and is known for his style of decorative and symbolic patterns in gold and strong colours and sensual and secretive female portraits. </P>
<P>This is one of his very popular painting - The Kiss:</P>

<P>But for me, I love another which is very different style but beautiful as his every piece of work - Apple Tree I.:</P>

However, her husband and kids, complainning their dinner menu was always repeat and repeat, get not more than 10 choices for whole month.</P>
<P>That's really touched me...</P>
<P>As a full-time housewife who loves her family very very very much, I always wanna make my husband and baby some new and nice food. But seems our dinner did not be creative for long....kinda guilty feeling I got.</P>
<P>Dear, I do hope you will like the Indian curry chicken, roti and the curry potato salad tonight. I have been spending the whole afternoon designning the menu.</P>
<P>Tomorrow before you go back office, remember to have a piece of my cheese butter cake.</P>
<P>And it is time for thinking tomorrow menu...</P>

<P><EM><STRONG><FONT color=#800080 size=2>HOW TO STAY YOUNG</FONT></STRONG></EM></P>
<P><EM><STRONG><FONT color=#800080 size=2>1. Throw out nonessential numbers. This includes age, weight and height. Let the doctor worry about them. That is why you pay him/her.</FONT></STRONG></EM></P>
<P><EM><STRONG><FONT color=#800080 size=2>2. Keep only cheerful friends.. The grouches pull you down.</FONT></STRONG></EM></P>
<P><EM><STRONG><FONT color=#800080 size=2>3. Keep learning. Learn more about the computer, crafts, gardening, whatever. Never let the brain idle. " An idle mind is the devil's workshop." And the devil's name is Alzheimer's.</FONT></STRONG></EM></P>
<P><EM><STRONG><FONT color=#800080 size=2>4. Enjoy the simple things.</FONT></STRONG></EM></P>
<P><EM><STRONG><FONT color=#800080 size=2>5. Laugh often, long and loud. Laugh until you gasp for breath.</FONT></STRONG></EM></P>
<P><EM><STRONG><FONT color=#800080 size=2>6. The tears happen. Endure, grieve, and move on. The only person who is with us our entire life, is ourselves. Be ALIVE while you are alive.</FONT></STRONG></EM></P>
<P><EM><STRONG><FONT color=#800080 size=2>7. Surround yourself with what you love, whether it's family, pets, keepsakes, music, plants, hobbies, whatever. Your home is your refuge.</FONT></STRONG></EM></P>
<P><EM><STRONG><FONT color=#800080 size=2>8. Cherish your health: If it is good, preserve it.<BR>If it is unstable, improve it. If it is beyond what you can improve, get help.</FONT></STRONG></EM></P>
<P><EM><STRONG><FONT color=#800080 size=2>9. Don't take guilt trips. Take a trip to the mall, to the next county, to a foreign country, but NOT to where the guilt is.</FONT></STRONG></EM></P>
<P><EM><STRONG><FONT color=#800080 size=2>10. Tell the people you love that you love them, at every opportunity.</FONT></STRONG></EM></P>
<P> </P>
<P>Hm...my dearest husband and friends, let's make it!</P>
