Little Leprechauns

Ms. Melli, she is the best and one of their favorite teachers.  They became little leprechauns through the St.Patrick's day celebration today.  The girls are going for a long trip and I asked Kari if she'd miss her teachers.  "Very...Very...Much," she replied, "I am gonna cry..."  We'll try to remember to remind the girls to send letters to them with love.

Kari mumbled to herself, "the bubble bottles can come on the trip with us...but it couldn't buy tickets, cus it doesn't have eyes... It can't see to buy to tickets!!"   What?!

Kayla loves singing the Leprechaun song.  I asked her to tell me the story about leprechaun, and she excitedly started to sing, "there was a little leprechaun and it lives under the rainbow....R-A-I-N-bow..."  I love the little song, thanks for teaching it to them, Ms Jaime.

Treasured moment

Courtesy of little baby photographer, Kayla Jade Fu, of Mommy and Kari (four year old).  She stood so proudly as she took these photos for us.  A rather serious yet comical photographer she is, She gave great instructions such as, "Oh no! Your heads are cut off!", "I don't want to see your belly Kari!", "Kiss like this for long time!!", as she stuck out her little pout way out with her eyes closed and demonstrated the right way to pose for a kiss.  I only wished that I had a camera on my hand then to capture her little hilarious photographer pose.  Love ya.

Headshots


I told the little girls that I needed to take their passport photos.  Kari would hold up two hands in front of her head and giggle at those words, "passport photos?! Like this?!" I am pretty pleased with the result after they were done making funny faces at Mommy.

Poor baby has had toothache since her dental treatment.  She cried inconsolably with the pain as she tried to show us the tooth that hurt.  No more candy!! I scolded them decisively.  Kari tilted her little head with tears still circling around her pretty little eyes, "...until Halloween, right?"  She refuses to give up her full right to sugar.  Afraid that her teeth would hurt with the hot soup, her grandma had the waitress take away the soup.  She protested sternly, "I told you my teeth doesn't hurt anymore, do you not remember?!!(你不記得嗎)" 

I have to remind myself... they are only four years old..

At night the girls would start out sleeping on their baby couch and baby car bed.  Kari asked last night when she could come up to our bed for some cuddling.  I told her that I would bring her up after she fell asleep.  Silence pursued for about twenty minutes, and I happily thought that perhaps the girls fell asleep early today.  Suddenly a little voice broke the silence, "May I go up now? (什麼時候可以上喫丫?)A little surprised that she was still awake, I replied, "I said when you fall asleep honey."

Little voice sounded disappointed, "but I fell asleep earlier already, and you didn't bring me..."
