Sweet Nazriel

So the other day...it was on a Sunday all of us went to my MIL's house. And we were watching (mummy and the twins) TV. So i had asked Nazriel to sit on my lap and wanted to hug him but he wouldn't stay put and didn't seem to want me to hug him. So i said to Nazriel" Ajer sit laa with mummy...mummy cold" i was really cold...it was raining plus the air -con was on as my hubby can't live without it... then he said " mummy cold". And he went down from my lap and went behind the chair where i was sitting towards the bed where he had placed his blankie....took the blankie came over to me and started to cover me up....and i felt that it was such a thoughtful thing coming from a 3 year old and thats why i'm writing this down so that i'll remember this sweet moment forever.

Since the twins started preschool


Nabil & Nazriel is now 3 years n 5 months

Before the boys started preschool their English kinda suck big time.......and as much as i tried conversing in English to teach them some english words they would always reply back in BM. This happens because everybody in the family their Tok, Opah, Tok Ayah, Nenek, cousins, bibik and including their daddy speaks to them in BM. You can see how difficult it was to have them reply something in english. Not that i'm against apeaking in BM...i'm fine with that too but i would like my kids to know more than one language at this age. If mummy didn't push daddy to send the twins to school now.. they would've been stuck at BM. Now that they have started school after five months i can see a lot improvements...yeah..mummy's really proud.

Here some English words that i've heard from them so far :

  • Good afternoon teachers

  • wonderful - Nabil

  • mummy so cute - Nazriel

  • i think

  • are you sure

  • soooo nice

  • thank you, please mummy - Nazriel likes to use this a lot when he wants sumthing

  • come, lets go

  • i'm coming
