The Power Of Ice Cream

Arthur, our coach teaches his kids with rewards.. usually money because his kids are all love money.. like him! Haha.. (Why do you think he is a multi millionaire and we are not.. cos he loves money more than us mah..so money loves him more as well..)

Jez says she got inspired and when her daughter doesn't do homework, she will deduct her pocket money... and then her daughter started to finish all her homework..

The other day, to celebrate my chinese birthday, we did a one day hotel stay at Fairmont and because Ace has not seen his dad for a few days (Max was hospitalized cos he did an operation), we decided to bring Ace along and told him we will bring him for hotel stay and go swimming..

Ace was of course happy like a bird.. especially when his disneyland trip has been indefinitely postponed... and we have decided to go to bali ourselves instead..

On Sunday morning, we decided to go and swimming and strangely.. because of the lure of other children, Ace started to walk into the pool and around the pool..something he refuses to do when we bring him to normal swimming pools.. and then we saw some people jumping into the pool.. and Max tried to get Ace to be brave to do that...

"Give you $10... you jump from there to here.." Max told him. I think he was trying to put to use wat Arthur shared with us..

Alas, I doubt a three year old understands the value of money (other than the fact that he told me he likes hotel and I told him that if he makes alot of money, he can decorate his house like a hotel and feel like he stays in a hotel everyday).

So Max changed strategy... "Give you ice cream if you jump..." Ace shook his head... "Give you big big ice cream.. you want big big ice cream?"
"big big" is Ace's special word to mean ALOT... "YES!" he cried! And so he jumped! And he even did it one more time just for the camera!
