Noel

lets talk about our beautiful daughter:) She is four and a half. She wants to marry Brickman in the Salt Lake Temple(she thinks Sleeping Beauty got married in the Salt Lake Temple:) and have Lincoln for her baby!

She likes to talk A LOT! She can talk for hours and hours with out me asking any questions. She asks a question , then answer her own question. I pretty much don't need to do any work for chatting with her:) And she's learning the violin. She really, really enjoy playing the violin! She is a hard little worker, she pratice six days a week and 45minutes a day. You might think that is because of her mommy makes her do it! But, no. We usually get through the whole 45 minutes pratice without any tears or fights which I am just so grateful for:)

And she enjoys home schooling just as much as her violin! We have lesson time 5 days a week, three hours a day. She amazes me every day for how fast she learns. She reads, count up to a 100(English and Chinese), she is working on some simple addition and subtraction between 1 and 10, she knows George Washington was the first president of the USA and so on..... Let's just say that she knows more than I do ;>

Here's how she lets me know that she knows every thing:

Me:" Who is the first president of the United States?"

Noel:" George washington!" Then she pause it for a little bit and said:" He didn't want to be a president, but every body voted for him! So he had give up hunting fox with his brother!"

Me:" What is a presdent and what does he need to do as a president?"

Noel:" President is the Daddy of the United States! So he needs to be nice to us!" Another pause then she asked:" Mommy, may I put Isabella to bed? I will be right back,OK?"

Me:" Who is Isabella?"

Noel(using her extra sweet voice):" My imaginery friend, nobody can see her except for me! I will tell you more about George later,Ok? Mommy!" And there she goes to be with her "friend" (She got the idea from her favorite cartoon:)

This is our four-year-old sweet and interesting daughter! I hope you enjoy her as much as I do!

Time just went by before I know.....

Hello, I am back for our blog:) I know! It's been a long time!

I just noticed that I haven't update our blog for six months, so I have to do something to change that;> Time flys after you are married and time shoots like a shooting star after you have kids! Here I am being a extremely busy and happy mommy.

Before, when I think about raising kids. I imagine there will be only smily days. Well, clearly that would only happend in our next lives!

To My Beloved Daughter.......

Dear Noel:

You're the end of Mommy's rainbow, Mommy's pot of gold.

You're mommy's little girl, to have and hold.

A precious gem is what you are.

You're mommy's bright and shining star.

You're sugar, you're spice,You're everything nice.

And you're mommy's little girl!

I love you, Noel! Please remember!

Mommy is so far away from being perfect.

But I am trying to show you how much I love you every day.

Please smile, please sing, please junmp, and please run.

You brighten Mommy's life every day.

It's hard for me to believe.......

Well, I mad the whole cake from scratch. As you can see, four years old=four of Noel's favorite cup cakes and four candles:) I spent four hours on this cake(two layers inside,chocolate and vanilla flavor) And there's butterflies and tulips on top(the icing took me three hours to make) So I went to be at 3am the night before the party just for the cake.

Noel's little friends. They had a blast playing together and of course Noel was the happiest one. She always enjoy kids coming to our house.

Yes, let's do it!

We were so excited to put Noel into preschool last year. About a month before school started, Tommy and I just didn't feel good about preschool anymore. It broke my heart when I was thinking about Noel leaving me for two hours for preschool, three days a week!(am I a wimpy Mom?) Then I started to look into homeschooling the kids. We did some research and got some wonderful books about homeschooling. After I read all the good things about homeschooling I was very excited to be able to spend more time with them in their early years of life! We are planning on homeschooling our kiddos until college(I know it's a tough job!)

I am a mother of three wonderful children who come from Heavenly Father! I am not perfect at all and not trying to be perfect. I always make great mistakes and don't always make right decisions! But I know my Father in Heaven trusts me. So He places these three most wonderful kiddos in our arms. And I know this is what He wants me to do for my three little monsters. I love them dearly and I will do my best to give them what they need to be strong people in this world!

P.S: Here's a website where you can learn some good things about homeschooling.
