Ten Ways how she Makes Me Smile

Dominique Parenting and Kids, Thoughts Monday Listicles, tuesday top ten

My little girl turns two this week. Time really passes very fast and she has matured a lot since we celebrated her 1st birthday last year. I’m really grateful to have her in our lives as she has brought lots of joy and sweet memories.

 

Here are 10 ways how she makes me smile.

1. She runs to  hug me and calls out mummy each time she sees me when I fetch her from school.
2. She shows joy in the simple things and says “thank you” to show her appreciation.
3. She helps to keep the clothes and her things neatly without asking.
4. She can play together with her brothers without fighting with them.
5. She  has an infectious laugh and perks up your day with her innocent laughter.
6. She shows her concern for her brothers by helping them in her little ways.
7. She loves to keep in contact with her grandparents and gives them joy by calling and talking to  them on the phone or Skype almost daily.
8. She loves to make funny faces and make me laugh.
9. She  is diligent and tried her best to learn what is taught to her.
10. She is eager to learn and able to follow instructions given.

How does your child make you smile?

Top 10 Reasons I know I’m living in 2012

Dominique Parenting and Kids, Thoughts Monday Listicles, tuesday top ten

It’s 2012 and time flashes pass faster then before. There are many things happening this year that weren’t happening last year.

Here are 10 reasons I know that I’m living in 2012.

1. Your mom sends you birthday greetings via e-mail and Facebook and then texts you to ask you if you have checked your e-mail and Facebook status.
2. You make appointments and chat with your friends more often on Whatssup then on MSN.
3. You have a smartphone as there are no new models of phone which come with a keyboard nowadays.
4. Kids are more interested in interactive games on the IPAD instead of traditional board games.
5. Most transactions that you do are online and there is no real need to step into a bank or shop.
6. Google is one of your best friends.
7. You spend more time sending text messages then actually talking on a phone.
8. Your toddler/kids are able to remember your hand phone number and all the telephone numbers of the immediate family as everyone has a hand phone.
9. You use your blog to update friends and relatives about the kids rather then send letters and photos to them.
10. You are working from home online instead of physically having to go to a workplace.
