上星期四阿比在 preschool 有表演,扮演小老鼠,竟然有一句對白!可惜應該全場都不明白她在說什麼,因為既不像英文也不是廣東話,哈哈!其實阿比實在有演藝天份,可惜說話能力較弱 (更何況今次是英語對白!),假若他日她的話可以說得清楚些,相信必成舞台上的一顆新星!(又或者她可以考慮專攻默劇或者形體藝術,嘻嘻!)

As we enter the month of December, we know that Christmas is near! This year has been really exciting and blessed for us -- our second daughter, Eliana, was born in August! In the past 4 months, we have been adjusting to our new roles and developing new family dynamics. Thanks to our beloved parents who have helped a great deal physically and emotionally throughout these months. We shall continue to work hard to be good parents of Abby and Elly.
昨日與老公一起去阿比的 Preschool 作 parental observation。我們對於阿比在這 preschool 所接受的訓練很 impressed!雖然阿比所做的都是一些看似很簡單又沉悶的 tasks,但這些都是訓練她的手指、手掌及手腕肌肉的靈活性及力量,更訓練她的專注力,以準備好她將來學執筆寫字。我也曾懷疑過為何她還未開始學寫字,是否因為她進度比其他同學仔慢?這次親眼看見學校如何訓練她的 pre-writing skills,很放心,因為他們沒有 rush 去教她執筆寫字 (我記得我當年幼稚園也很早要我們寫字),反而肯花時間好好鍛鍊其寫字時所需的生理及心理準備。看見阿比如此 focused 及如此按部就班的去做那些 tasks,很興奮,我看到了孩子的另一面!
