I am so proud!Dear Hailey,
We are so proud of you, we never thought that you would win in the competition. We always told you that you are going for a performance/recital, and you were so disappointed there was no “stage.” It was only a room with a grand piano. When they announced that you have won the 3rd prize, I thought Daddy has tears in his eyes. We just wanted to give you chance to do things that we did not have when we were young.

You told us today that you would like to be a piano teacher one day. When I asked you what would you do if your student did not behaved like Hailey was. You said that you would never go to their place again. That was so funny! I hope that from this competition, you will learn that hard work do paid off and winning was not the most important things in life.

Before I had you, I could never imagine that I would be the sort of parents that would take kids to competition. So, I promise you that, one day, if you say that you do not want to do it, we will never push you. We will never force you to do the things that you do not like.

Hailey well done, we are so proud of you.

Love,
Mommy and Daddy

I went to pick up her homework and she told me that she really wanted to go to school. We went with her friend, Bianca today to the piano class and she probably dying for someone to play with, she even agreed to sleep in Bianca’s home for a night. I was a bit sad because she was not even 5, and she already wanted to go for a slepe-over already. Nick said that it was good because that meant she was very independent. However, I thought that it was really sad.img_3540

To be fair, it was not really an exam, more like an assessment that was going to pass anyway, but she was really happy with her hair and her look. I am so proud of her too, she looked so “grown up” in her Ballet outfit. I thought she looked very pretty.
Hailey looked so grown up!

Cried really badly not because she was not feeling well, but because her hands were full of her sickness and were dirty. Went home, changed her and took her to the doctor. Very co-operative because the doctor offered her a candy. She had a bit temperature and a sore throat. She was happy in general, but just could not go to the swimming class.

We bought that outfit in Texas and she really enjoy showing it off to her friends as the birthday party theme was “Culture costumes.”

When she walked to school, we asked her if her boots were comfy, she said “ok.” Which meant not ok, but she still insisted to walk in them.

They would said that how lovely her hair was and was it natural, that sort of question. BUT I wanted to tell you was: How messy it was in the morning. She looked like the North Korea President with ridiculous curly hair. To prove my statement, this was how she looked in the morning. chloe-messey-hair

When I looked at picture like this, I could not help but think that what will happen in 10 years time: Will they still be best friends? Will we still live in HK? Will the mommies still in touch? Lets hope that their friendship will continue and so as the mommies.
