The 3 little ones

Natalie loves Nathan to bits. She do not allow us to scold or even raise our voice at Nathan. She always come to his rescue. She is more than happy to jump around just to make her little brother smile. She even allow him to pull her hair. She shower him with kisses just before he goes to bed. It goes to show our little girl has grown up.

Nicole on the other hand, doesn't like Nathan to bother her. She will scream when Nathan pulls her hair or come close to her. She has a different way of showing her affection for him. She will dance for him to make him laugh.

Nathan loves both his sisters. He will crawl to his sisters to join in whatever they are doing. He also takes the role of a terrorist, snatching whatever the sisters are playing, biting his sisters art work.

Hi-5

Interestingly, when I commented that I am getting fat and Natalie asked me if I am having another baby. And I asked her if she wants another baby brother and sister. She told me: we need another baby boy and baby girl. So in total there will be 3 girls and 2 boys, just like Hi-5. I have no idea where she get the concept of wanting so many siblings. But I am sure she is one good Big sister that take good care of her siblings.

Nicole. The beautiful one.

While we fuss over the needs of the little one, worry over the growing concerns of the elder one, somehow someone gets to be far away from the limelight.

Then again she survives by creating a world of her own, playing with herself, letting her imaginative world fill the voids of Daddy and Mummy at times. Well she has her auntie but then I always make sure that she is not out of my span of attention, then again a depleting attention given the load at work.

Just have to look at her face when she is alone with me and mummy to understand how much she longs for us. Not asking for food like her sister, attention like the brother, all she needs is for you to look at her, play with her and it would mean the whole world to her.

My little princess, the often missed out one but then the child who could end up be the one among the three to know, understand and take a different perspective of things just because of the independent childhood she goes through.

Time also to switch attention to her as she is getting older. Needs no less than the sister. More work for us? Thats definite. But then we would get to enjoy it nonetheless.
