OF BEDS & TOYS

So, what's so special about this bed shot you say? Well... I have started to look at normal things and learnt to appreciate them more. Actually, it is rather abnormal if you think about it... b'cos this bed looks like this every morning after Jordan wakes up. He MAKES HIS OWN BED!! I mean, it is stuff you don't expect boys to do rite? Well, ok there are days when he's in a rush and it gets overlooked, but that's fine. Meanwhile, I appreciate his efforts to be neat and well-organised this way. It makes a nice sight to come home and plonk into rite?
And considering him being already close to 10 and playing with boy macho games like guns and xbox, he still loves his cuddlies. Last night, he took out all of his soft toys and they each have a story behind them.
The largest pooh bear was from his Godma, who bought it from HK Disneyland for him. The donkey bolster, Eeyore was given him by this girl called Isabel during a Port Dickson church convention when he was just 2 years old. The yellow elephant tucked behind Pooh is from his paternal grandma.
1st two from the right: Meet Boris the bulldog and Squigee the dark brown dog side by side which were companions since his toddler days and bought from China during his 1st Beijing trip. They were his 1st soft toys from mummy & daddy.
On the far left is Puddles, the only bear in the family given to him by Uncle Kai Seong. He was named Puddles because his eyes always looked shiny and wet. The smallest dog in the family right in the center, is named Squirrel Chaser, given to him for Christmas from Auntie Ebbie.
Last but not least is Chubbs, the light brown and white doggy- one of his faves. Compliments again from Godma who has been a real blessing to him and sent this via the post because she knew he was missing daddy much at one point.
So, there you go, toys with a bit of history behind them, everyone of them a testament of the heart and love for him from different people in his life.
