A Little Growing Person


Jae's officially 18 months now. 1 and a half years old in other words. Suddenly I realize she's no longer just a cute little thing that smells nice and cuddles up our chest for a sleep. She's now a little person, with distinct personality and preferences.

Unfortunately Jae got my temperament - which I got from my dad - and her mum's stubbornness - which she got from her dad too. That makes her a very nasty stubborn kid whenever she wants something. Fortunately she also got the mischieve gene from both of us so although it's tiring looking after her, she never fails to give us a laugh with one of her many tricks.

I'm still thinking of a way to make her learn to channel her temperament into something useful. My dad didn't teach me that so I'll have to figure it out. In the meantime we just have to manage her.
