Ky-An
- Ky-An has develop some odd fears. He is now very scare of the dark so he would not walk anywhere that is a little dark. When he goes to bed at night, we have to also turn on the night light on his side of the bed. I have to turn it off after he goes to sleep because it’s too bright and it cause Ai-Vy to wake up in the middle of the night thinking it’s time to play.
- He taught me a little birdie song in Vietnamese that his babysitter taught him.
- I think he misses the cuddling the babysitter and I give him because he’s been super clingy every since school started. He clings to me and tries to cuddle with me everywhere after school every day. He also makes me lay in bed at night with him and cuddle up with me to go to sleep. I don’t mind it one bit but I really hope it’s just a phase. His teacher asked me today if he’s an only child. Wonder what she mean by that??!!
- I was trying to teach Ky-An right turns and left turns when we were driving in the car. I had to do a U-turn and told him “Mommy is making a U-turn!” Ky-An immediately replied and goes “NOooo it’s not MY turn!!” I couldn’t stop laughing and he started laughing also.
Ai-Vy
- One day Ai-Vy came home and I tell her something at the dinner table and she argued with me “hong phai” meaning not right. I told “phai” and she goes “hong phai”. I kept it going several more times because I thought it was so funny. Then she asked to come down from the table and then walk around going “hong biet” meaning don’t know and put both hands up with a little shrug. Hieu and I looked at each other in disbelief.

Great development!! They are very smart and unique in different ways...
I think my little Sara and your Ai-Vy are long lost twins. I get the same tantrums out of her and NOTHING I used on Zoey works, she is so headstrong. If you ever figure out something that works you need to tell me the secret, lol.
I have the same problem with Maya. Her answer to everything is to yell out No, no, no. Or to scream and sometimes even hit. And if you correct her, she'll scream forever until you console her. She's very hard headed, determined and gets worked up if you breathe on her the wrong way. I try to make myself feel better by telling myself that atleast I know she won't get bullied around in school. If she does anything, it will be because she wanted to do it, not because she was pressured or coerced. She's going to be a leader, not a follower.
They are growing up so fast! I think Vietnamese is close to Cantonese...although Gi Jye says it isn't, I see you have a lot of similair words that mean the same thing. I guess it might be like comparing English to Italian? I don't know? lol
