Interview

Lucas will have his first interview, an interview of the kindergarten.

I would accompany with him.  It is an international school, which focuses more on talent exploration, instead of squeezing kids into a shape based on social expectation, such as knowing two thousands words at two years old, etc.

The principal told me it would not really be an interview of the child, but more like a chat with the parents, to see if they go for the same goal as the school.

I am a bit nervous, hahah.

Turtle

Tonight we chatted with Lucas and asked if he would like to dress up in Halloween. He said yes, then when we asked him what he would want to dress like, he said....

TURTLE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

We burst into laugh. Then we asked him what Daddy should dress like, he said....

TOOTHPASTE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I am so lucky that he had made up his mind what I should dress like.

We are thinking Linus can be a pumpkin that night!

Love and Jealousy

I feel there is a bonding between the brothers. They find each other interesting and love to stay together, but at the same time they are jealous with each other, especially when I am hugging one of them.

I was a believer of dualism, that means I think everything/ everyone can be distinguished into black or white, good or bad, love or hatre. Jeff always teases it is "Manki's logic". However, from Lucas and Linus, I find a person can love and be jealous on another person at the same time. Love and jealousy seems in the extreme ends of a spectrum, but they can exist concurrently.

I am sure the boys will be best friends when they are getting older. Lucas and Linus, you know what, I love both of you, and each of you is unique to me.
