Giving you the World

Hush Little Baby,

Dont say a word

Mama's gonna buy you a mocking bird.

If that mocking bird won't sing,

Mams's gonna buy you a diamond ring.

If that diamond ring turns brass

Mama's gonna get you a looking glass.

If that looking glass gets broke

Mama gonna buy you a billy goat.

And if that billy goat won't pull,

Mama's gonna buy you a cart and bull

And if that cart and bull fall down,

You'll still be the sweetest little baby in town

This is your favourite lullaby. And I used to sing it to you blindly and thinking what a dumb and meaningless lullaby until one day. I started to understand and feel deeply for the song. This lullaby expresses the love and the need within the mother to provide for you and not wanting you to be deprived.

I want to give you the world.

Today I am going to let out a secret - YOu have a horrendous amount of toys. It was endless. If you spend 10 minutes playing on one toy, you cannot finish playing everyone of them in one day. My mom your grandma has given up nagging. I have gotten used to the looks of astonishment on visitors' faces and with most shaking their heads in disbelief and ime oblivious of the comments about me setting up a toy rental business.



Yeah this is daddy and mamma's joint efforts. Our common weakness since the day you were born. And I blame it to the fact that we are strong advocates of learning through play. And more play.

So check this out. Just a prelude-

A pirate ship we lugged back from Melbourne last year. It is something that I would like to have if I was a kid!

Marshy had so much fun with all her stuff friends in the pirate ship. SHe would orgainse picnics and get together with her bears and dolls!


Marshy riding on one of her many tricycles. All geared up with her haversack and giving Mickey Mouse a ride!

This is the face my heart beats for!

Marshy's another favourite-Hello Kitty fishing set. You are really good at catching the revolving fishes with the fishing rod your chubby hands!
