Ayden and Adamian are quite observant. They would point it out the moment they notice something changed in the room or their environment, like mini CSIs. We even 'tested it' at one point if they noticed something was different and within the hour they arrived home, they would ask about it.
Candy canes on the xmas tree: Ayden noticed it upon returning home from school.
Timberland logo: Adamian would say that his winter jacket and his dad's vest have the same little tree logo on it.
Ayden noticed the moment his dad wiped clean the inside of the windscreen of the white car. This is so subtle, I wouldn't even notice such a small improvement.
And then the boys would mix their english french and malay. Like 'Me makan gateau': I am eating cake.
Adamian beat me at chess on 21 Oct 2020 - yup wrote it down (he just turned 5 years old). And he can count numbers up to ten in mandarin.
Few months ago I caught a glimpse of Ayden using a broom to get the toilet paper high up on the shelves (why didn't I think of that?).
When I told Ayden there was no coloured paper to make different parts of the pop-up paper xmas tree, he said we don't need any - we can use the different coloured post-its. He also told Adamian once to be careful when plugging in the keyboard - to always ask mama or papa because it is dangerous.
Adamian would shout 'I miss mama!' and 'Super maria game!' (even if the lego Mario says super mario time LOL). He would also mispronounce 'Among Ous' (among us) and 'dadedoleler' (for french version of playdough).
Sometimes I selfishly want them to grow up fast so they can be more mature and disciplined, rather than fight like a cat and dog, but at the same time, moments like these make me appreciate their cuteness and adorable behaviour. Sigh.
