Best Mummy In The Whole World

I guess the tips from Lency are really working out great:)

My son came to me today and passed me a handphone accessory and told me, "Mummy, you are the best mummy in the whole wide world and i want to give you a medal.."

And so I gave him a big hug as a thank you...

I guess a little love goes a long way..

Speaking of which... I think the little boy who takes the school bus together with Ace loves me and absolutely adores me...

The other day, when the bus came, he held on to my hand and asked me, "Aunty, are you going to school?"

I told him I was going home and not going to school, he looked a little disappointed when he went up the bus..

Anyway, today, something happened while we were waiting for the school bus...

The little boy Matt Matt held Ace's hand and then he scratched Ace and caused Ace's skin to peel into an open wound. Even though it is a small wound, I think it was quite painful for Ace and so Ace ran into my arms.

I held him in my arms and kissed his wound...

And then I turned and told Matt Matt that this is not a nice thing to do. Can you say sorry to Ace?

And Matt Matt tried to change topic, pretended to ignore us and even threw a tantrum when his helper threatened to run away if he dun apologize....

I asked Ace if he can forgive Matt Matt and he said, "But he never say sorry to me. and it is very painful.."

I asked Ace if Matt Matt is behaving badly or behaving well.. "Bad.."

And so I explained that people who feel bad will behave bad. We just need to be patient.

Then i told Matt Matt that it is ok that he is not ready to to say sorry now and that we still love him. Ace is feeling hurt and would feel better if he says sorry to Ace and told him we will wait for when he is ready...

At this point, Ace tried to motivate him and said, "If you say sorry, I will give you a sweet.."

Soon enough, Matt Matt said he is sorry and I got them to shake hands and be friends again.

Ace said he was willing to forgive him.. "But if he do this again, no more chance ah?"

Hahahaha.. I was both proud of myself for the way I handled the situation but when I look at Ace's response, I felt a little bad that it was probably how we used to treat Ace..

I am sorry, Ace.. please forgive me.. I didn't know better and will try to do better ;)
