Read on Pohim....

 To see Pohim learning to read with his mommy dearie brought back memories from yesteryears. The time when the children of no.7 learned to read. Some had it easy while some had it hard.

Ba Ba.... ca  ca, du du... was repeated over and over again until finally they were able to make out how to read.

One was a fast learner ,learning from hearing her elder sister read.

One got it so fast that I was surprised when he read the whole roadside notices aloud. 

While others had to be coached .Drama and all.

But one thing that I love was we as a family love reading. Very much.

It was normal for the children to read at bedtime. The next morning when I did the bed, books were all around them. One could read everywhere. In a moving vehicle, eating, and even walking.

We were in Langkawi for a holiday. Walking past by shops when I noticed one missing. There he was. A few distance away. Walking with his head down. Reading a newly acquired book.

A bookshop at Kangar town would be our first pit stop on a journey. No holiday, or going back to Kulim on our monthly excursion would start before getting them books of their choice.

Mau lah rabak 50 ringgit . 

Without reading materials , our car could be a war field. Hang cuit aku,aku cuit hang. Hang kata kat aku, aku nangis. Tak senang cikli nak pandu kereta. Dapat buku semua diam. 

Pohim, as far as I could remember, likes alphabets since a toddler. M, tu M... he pointed to us the M on Macdonald's. From afar,he would be excited to see M knowing that he could have his favourite chicken.

He was still in his stroller when I tested him . Mana A? Well my clothespegs were his As. And he would show me alphabets on small labels. The labels on his rocking chair was referred when I asked him to find alphabets.

Adik nampaknya berlainan . He's more into physical moves. Suka tgk dia menari. Mcam ibu dia kecik kecik dulu. 

Read on Pohim.... like your nanny. As reading is my number one hobby.
