THE DETERMINED & DIRECT DAUGHTER

Ben was dumped in a big playground with electronic tags (which my mum calls a cage), Yin Ping had gone off to do some grocery shopping after our dinner at Nandos which left me alone with the youngest member of our family. Jocelyn's conversation is not going as well as a 2 year old should be apparently (mainly just one word vocabulary) but she knows what she wants. She pulls your fingers/hand/shirt/item of upper body garment to her desired location and then looks at you with her request.

We were on the basement floor of Queensbay shopping centre and I had her wandering up and down a wheelchair/trolley slope. Kids love level changes and it beats paying 2 ringitt for a playground. So she was happily strolling up & down the slope and peeping behind columns and stepping on and off the slope. (If only women were so easy to please all the time!) Then she pottered off towards the direction of some HSBC credit card promotion but happily wandered through it.

Jocelyn then stopped outside a kiosk called New Zealand Nature, pulled my hand & pointed. She also said her first ever sentence to me:

"I want ice-cream"
