more action less talk

Sorry its been such a long while .... we've recently finished 2 months of paradise in Singapore and its really hard to adjust back to the extreme opposite of sunny weather, great shops and good food, and network of supportive friends and family. Have had been suffering from major withdrawal symptoms since our arrival at Birmingham airport 2 weeks ago but we are slowly getting back on our feet. Been doing lots of thinking, contemplating and self-reflecting. I promise to return with more news ... in the near future ...

Morgan's latest developmental assessment at 2 years old is well above average. He was coping really well with matching colours and stacking blocks to make a tall tower. Although he spoke few words of Welsh and Mandarin, he clearly understood all questions asked in English and needed no prompting from us. We then explained that English really was his third language because only Mandarin and Welsh were spoken to him at home, which somehow wowed the health visitor. He scored the highest in his visual skills - he's about 4 years old in this aspect. His understanding of things and social skills are next in line. Apparently he needed a little work on manipulative skills which really just means using the different parts of the body when necessary, like jumping, kicking etc.

There is no real concern over his development at this stage at all. He is, according to the health visitor, doing really fine and growing well.

這就是人生吧!我爸媽來的這段時間也幫我照顧 Nathan,但是也吵了好幾次架,因為觀念不同,但是他們回去後那一天,我還是感覺很失落 lonely,畢竟接下來我又回到和 Nathan 大眼瞪大眼的日子,再怎麼說家人就是這樣吵吵鬧鬧的,但是大家還是很願意幫忙,偶爾怨嘆或羨慕,就像小孩子吃不到時會難過哭,但是吃到好吃的就破涕為笑,只是我們住國外就是要堅強和獨立,有時累了,就休息一下吧.

而人生這條路就是這樣一路走下來,不管是你自己的選擇或是環境要你配合.

一起加油吧!
