Fighting Back

Siyuan as a toddler had a mild personality - he was happy to do anything (so long as it looks fun), and eat just about everything. He didn't seem to have an aggressive bone in his body and was constantly bullied at playgrounds till he learnt better.

Sihuai has learnt fast, having to compete with her brother for toys and attention right from the start. As she gets bigger and can now walk, she's a fierce competitor! Sometimes that just means sitting down and crying for attention, but she can also push and grab. The other day, during a playground session, another kid wanted to climb onto Sihuai's favorite bed, and our little girl was busy tagging on the other kid and trying to put a stop to that.

Yesterday, I was trying to feed her when she noticed Lux feeding Siyuan. She suddenly refused her food and wanted Lux to feed. So Lux ended up with the kids, one on each lap, eating from the same bowl. It is just amazing.
