Cutie is starting to eat brown rice…not very good leh…she keeps spitting it out…will share more later…

Finally completed knitting cutie’s blanket…will post some pictures of it after washing it…

Next is to finish up the sweater…I’m already 95% done…hope to complete it by mid July…I know…no one takes such a long time to knit sweater…especially toddler size…but I dun have tat much time per day…so I’m really taking it slowly…one stitch at a time…

Leviticus 26:6 – I will grant peace in the land, and you will lie down and no one will make you afraid. I will remove savage beasts from the land, and the sword will not pass through your country.

Haven’t been blogging for quite a long time…anyone missed me…? Hahaa…

The past few wks had not been very good…I needed time to be with Sweetie…therefore no time to blog…I mentioned tat she fell sick…tummy ache…went for X-Ray…well…thank God she’s so much better…the tummy ache disappeared – we increased the dosage for her medicine (the one tat help her poo soften)…it also helped her to poo everyday instead of alternate days…after poo-ing everyday for nearly a wk…her tummy ache was gone…she didn’t mention it again…thank God…!

But something else popped up…something I was not prepared for…something I dun really know how to handle…“Monsters”…there was a nite she simply refuse to sleep…tossing & turning in bed…asking for one more story…one more song…I tot she was being naughty…didn’t want to sleep…my patience reached its limit…I scolded her…told her if she’s not interested in sleeping then I’m not patting her to sleep…I walked out of the room…she cried…my husband went to her…ask her wat happened…she just cry…asking for me…in the end (less than 5mins)…I went back to her room to tell her story…sing songs…she finally fell asleep…total time taken to get her to sleep tat nite was more than 2hrs…!! The next nite…something similar happen…she didn’t want to sleep…I told myself not to be so ‘harsh’ to her…try a different method…talk to her…ask her why she didn’t want to sleep…then she started asking for her grandma (my mum)…she said she missed her…tat’s impossible…cos we go over my parents place everyday…! I ask her to tell me honestly wat’s going on…& then she whispered…“There’s monsters”…OMG…!! I can see from her expression she was afraid…she was not faking it…I was not prepared…I didn’t know wat to do…so I just told her there’s no such thing as monster…try to comfort her…in the end I resort to the only thing I know will work best…I carried her on my lap…rocked her to sleep…well…not really till she sleep…I rocked her till she’s semi-asleep…then put her back on the bed & pat…since then she kept trying to delay sleep time…so I’ve to coax her to bed around 10.30pm & by the time she fall asleep it usually 12am…I know its really late…but tis is the best I can do…we read books…I tell story…sing songs…hope & pray in my heart she’ll not mention abt the “M” thingy…then I did some ‘mini research’ on how to deal with tis sort of issue…family friend (husband & wife) who are from Australia came over to visit their daughter…we all met up & they drop by our place to pray for us…for the past 3 nites Sweetie was so much better…she is still trying to delay the sleeping time but there was no mention of “M” & also I can see from her facial expression she’s more relax…her delaying of sleeping time is so tat she can read books or to sing songs…not so much due to fear…thank God…I pray tat she’ll overcome tis issue…

Do any of u know how to deal with such issues…? Do share ur tots with me…

Cutie is 5mths old…! Really fast ya…! She’s growing real well…a very cheerful baby…
