Fun Fun day with Sarah's Chinese Friend in Lehi

2010-09-24T15:26:00.000-07:00

Today is another busy day! Vinh is working until late tonight. Today is his last day of rotation in American Fork which is 50 mins away from our house. He said he might be able to come home early. If not, he will be home around 8pm tonight. Yes! Friday night. I am sitting in the kitchen cooking my favorite three-cup chicken. I hope if Vinh comes home early tonight, he can have some delicious dinner with us.

It has been quite busy today. Ching and I were planning to go to Wheelers Farm today. But her friends have other plans, so I decide to go visit her in Lehi instead. Besides, I felt I really need to go visit Tracy. She just had a baby and with her busy toddler. I felt I should baby sit Mason and give Tracy a break. She is having a hard time with no family around.

I picked up Mason headed towards the play ground with Ching and her two boys- Samson (2 1/2yrs) and Ray (7mos). It was fun to see kids play together. When Mason's mom-Tracy is around, Mason is a handful kid. But it was not so today. He was very obedient and easy to take care of. Mason likes to hold Sarah's hand which makes it easier to take care of two kids at one time. Samson is a shy boy. But I like him. He just needs to be guided along the way, otherwise he would just sit in the corner and be quiet. I decided to take the effort to make Samson comfortable while Mason and Sarah were having fun holding hands and playing in the play ground. I tried to hold Samson's hand and went sliding with him. For the first time, he laughed out loud. Then I decided to hop on the stairs. That really made him happy and wanted to get involved again. So...after couple of trying, he started to play with us. Mason wanted to be the leader when it comes to sliding and Sarah just followed Mason along. I held Samson's hand and making Tiger sound while I was going down the slide. Ching was holding Ray and trying to chat with me at the same time. It was supper fun to play with kids.

After a while, they got bored with the slide and swing. I decide to be the Lion and chase after them in the park. That really sparkle their interest again. Samson especially loves that. Mason did not understand the game quite yet, but following Sarah and trying to hold her hands kept his little mind busy. Since Sarah and I playing Lion King at home all the time, Sarah loves it too.

It was a beautiful day playing in the park. The weather is beautiful and the sun was quite nice and warm. I am so happy that Mason came with us. I wish Tracy was there, but I think she would rather sleep instead.

We went to Ching's place for lunch. She cooked some good fry rice-Chinese classic 10 minutes dish. We all loved it. It was amazing how much Mason had eaten. Then Ching played the piano for us while the kids play with toys and enjoy each other's company.

I love today and I hope Sarah will remember the fun time she had with her friends too.

Sarah and her friends

2010-09-22T14:25:00.000-07:00

Sarah has been learning so much since she turned two. Mostly it is the language part. She can speak fluently in Chinese with me and Vinh now. I am so proud of that. Amazingly, she has picked up her English from Vinh and her little friends.

We just has a new neighbor moved into our ward and I started to spend time with the mother-Valerie. She is the most fun and energetic lady I have ever met. Valerie and I started doing exercise every morning around 7am for an hour. I drop Sarah at her place. While we are exercising, her husband J.D. would baby sit three kids. It was great. I really have felt I have find a balance in my life. I love working out with her and get to know her better while I get my exercise done.

Since Sarah has been playing with Valerie's two boys-Lincoln (3yr) and Joven(1 1/2yr). Sarah has learned so much English from those boys. The most funny thing is Lincoln has learned some Chinese words from Sarah too. Like today, Lincoln wants Sarah's attention and asking her to play with her. He said: " Sarah! Sarah! come play with me! " There is a silence from Sarah while she was concentrating with her own toys. Then! Lincoln got quite inpatient. He shouted: " Xingxing! Xingxing! (Sarah's Chinese name)! Come play with me! " Lincoln probably has picked that up from me. Yes! Lincoln got her attention this time. Lincoln makes me laugh so hard when I heard him saying that.

Today is another beautiful day. Kids were playing in the yard over the sand box. Sarah had a great time playing with Lincoln and Joven over the sand box in Valerie's house. Lincoln is a great leader who wants to build a volcano with sand. Sarah is a helper and in charge of transporting the sand or dirt into the sand box. Here left Joven. He is volunteer to be the volcano and sitting in the sand box while others dumping the sand on him. It was so funny to see how kids can play together.

I was standing in the distance and quietly watching the kids playing together. I can hear Lincoln making orders to Sarah: " bring the sand...volcano is coming....Yeah!... there are some fireworks...yes! more sand sarah...The volcano is getting hot!" In the mist of all those orders, Sarah would quietly follow them with exactness regardless Joven was creaming out loud because there were too much sand on his face. Then, Lincoln would carry a big bucket filled with sand, dirt and rocks. Sarah was carrying her small pot for watering filled with the same thing chasing after Lincoln. It was a great peaceful picture and I am happy to be in it.

The blog is alive again!

2010-09-22T13:48:00.000-07:00

A mummy that is pretty good looking
I'm a lion, ra ra ra

I'm a duck, quack quack

Now I'm a rabbit, my favorite because it's pink
Rob, Ching, and Lion Samson
