The M Edition for the Month of May...


In my English class, we rhyme the alphabet sound. For M, it goes like this. M says mmm, M says mmm as in milk, M says mmm...mmm...mmm. Mama says for the month of May starts with the beginning sound of M. So here is my M edition for the M month.


M for Mei-Mei
I went with Mama to the gynae to check on the baby. Dr says that from the scan, the baby is a Mei-Mei. Papa says that I need to be a good Kor-Kor as Mei-Mei is a girl and will need me to protect her, just like he protect Mama. Mei-Mei is now 16 weeks old in the womb.

M for Mee Hoon KuihMee Hoon Kuih has nothing to do with mee hoon. In Cantonese, they call it Pan Mee. The last time my Ah Mah came, she taught Kakak Imah how to cook mee hoon kuih....so, I get to eat it and i LOVE it. I can eat it for lunch and dinner.

M for My Ah Tow's Birthday
We celebrated my Ah Tow's (Papa's grandmother or Nai-Nai's mother) on Monday. It's 1 week belated. Ah Tow is an amazing lady, she is very very old and still she does housework and cooks.

M for Motorbike
M for motorbike. I have always wanted an automatic motorbike. My cousin Kang has outgrown this one, so he passed it to me. Remember...M for motorbike.

M for Measles
M for Measles. On the 6th day of May (Tuesday), I had fever for 2 nights. Then after eating medicine, I got a very itchy rash. 2 days later (Thursday), Mama brought me to our local GP to treat the rash. Guess what Dr Mutalib said - it's measles and it's contagious. No school for 1 week. Best of all, both side of my grandparents are going to China for a holiday, so Mama & Papa had to think of where to "park" me as I cannot go to school for 1 week. It's no fun being quarantined but I get lot's of little "rewards" if I am being obedient. The rash is very very itchy and it's all over my body. Also I am not suppose to go near Mama, so Papa entertains me most of the time.

M for My Revision
This week is revision week before my 1st exam. Since I cannot go to school, Papa goes through my revision paper with me. I can play the whole week....miss my classmates though.
