When Perie left the room, I said to Mommy, “Mama, Perie go go”.

with ’shoes’ on. I am. All day long. One never knows when one has to step out. I insist on wearing my ‘Putada’ shoes even when I am sleeping. If at times I don’t find them on my feet in the morning I am distressed. Hurriedly I set about finding them and then go to Mommy or Ajma then thrust the shoes before them. More often than not they comply. If by chance Mommy doesn’t help me wear them I go over to Ajma and vice versa.

We have been enjoying this Chinese New Year with many outings. At the botanic gardens I made a lot of friends simply by joining in their picnic. I played Frisbee with a big girl, ball with a small boy, climbed a tree with Ajma, ate grapes with Perie, played with the leaves and had my picture taken by many people.

I played on all those things at the sand playground. The sand looked very interesting so I rubbed a lot of it on my hands, legs, face. I was still not satisfied so I put a spoonful in my mouth. Crunchy!
