A Trip to KL (Dec 5-8,2007)

JX went to KL for a conference and I brought the children to visit the Choongs. This trip was special becuase Iris brought Beatrice and Vina brought Gabby. It turned out to be a play trip for the children!

The trip was pleasant, except for when the children cried for food, sleep or attention...:p As the coach we took has a lower deck, we kept the children at the lounge area so that we do not disturb the other passengers.
This is Denise's best "male" friend - Joshua. They used to be able to play "peacefully" and Joshua will always "let" Denise have her way. It was interesting to see how they have grown and changed in their play...:)

They will engaged in play and once in a while one party will start complaining about the other...
"Denise throw her puzzles at me!"
"Joshua use the toy and hurt my thumb!"
"Denise pushed me!"
"Joshua don't want to play with me!"
"Denise don't want to be my friend!" etc...

The parents will have to step in and mediate! Finally...
PARENTS: "Ok, Joshua say sorry to Denise"
JOSHUA: "Sorry..."
(after a while) JOSHUA: "But Denise did not say it's ok..."
PARENTS: "Denise, Joshua already said sorry"
DENISE: "Too soft, I cannot hear"
JOSHUA (louder this time): "SORRY"
DENISE: "It's ok..."
JOSHUA & DENISE (break out into laughter together): "Hahhahahahah..."

Off they go and play again. Sigh. This went on for a few cycles...:p But before we left, they were on good terms and were looking forward to meet each other again! :)
