touch screen

So I was braiding a friend of mine single braids to be exact. So Ano seeing her cell phone on the couch asks me
"does auntie's phone have angry birds?"
Angry birds? you ask, where does he know angry birds from......well if you googled you would find out but he did not google it of course. B.I.G Rumbi has an iphone which I believe was a gift from her fiance. So she happened to show Ano the game and since then he has been hooked. Being that he is Ano he thinks every phone has and should have Angry birds.

Anyway so my friend told was puzzled about the question
"angry birds? why should my phone angry birds?"
To which I explained that angry birds was a game. So because she didn't have it she just gave him a soccer game to play.

A few minutes pass and Ano says "mommy its not working" and as I look to see him tapping on the little nokia screen. So my friend says "oh my gosh, he is used to a touch screen". And we both laughed. How hilarious....

a day at the Botanical Gardens

Last sunday the 18th. B.I.G Rumbi and James and of course Rebecca picked up Ano to go the gardens for a train show. I didn't go but from the looks of the pictures they had fun and I heard the highlight was Thomas the Tank engine and Annie and Clarabel.

I picked him up later after 9pm and he had learned lots and lots of staff including the word convoy. How? Because he got lots of nice little cars. This is good for me because his focus has just shifted to cars. Is saves me from hearing chugga chugga, chugga chugga, chugga chugga......chooo chooo, chooo.

What wonderful family Ano has. Wonderful sister and brother in law. I remember no one ever took me to the gardens when I was growing up. All I got would be 10c or something and we would run to the store to buy candy. There were the yellow candies in the shape of a cone and on the inside were marshmallowy. It actually meant a lot cause it was the thought that counted.

I couldn't compare my childhood and his cause we are talking two separate/different worlds and times. That's a whole other topic.
But thanks be to GOD who causes us to triumph in his name....
and all Good things around us are from heaven above so we thank GOD for his love.

growing and growing

I am proud of my little one. He seems to know how to pronounce his letter L's.
No longer are they Weg but leg.
No longer is it kwee but three. He has grown so much in a couple of months.
No longer is it teesh but almost teeth. What else can I say. Tomorrow is a christmas luncheon for the kids and we have to prepare a meal which they will all enjoy to celebrate the birth of our Lord and saviour Jesus Christ. What a wonderful season.
