but it was really too hot


but it was really quite hot that day, so he took breaks in the shelter as well. He's pretty aware of the elements. On these hot days, u can't walk out for more than 10 minutes without been drenched in sweat and looking like a cooked lobster. HK parents, the well-off one, can be quite picky and demanding. I've heard comments about why SIyuan looked so sweaty. Also seen a mother heckle her son on why he's not doing better at the monkey bar. What should be fun has become a task for the poor kid, who resorted to faking stomach pain to avoid doing the bar. Then i've seen old folks scold another kid for not climbing as well as Siyuan. Its pretty competitive out there!
On the other hand, there are normal people, who run around playing catching with their kids :)

Siyuan at the playground


it was bright and sunny after a few days of rain, so took the camera and siyuan out. Siyuan is now an accomplished climber - if he sees it he wants to climb it. If he can't, he will wait till he sees an older kid do it, and then try it.

My sister and Siyuan



My sister, who helped to take care of me and my brother when young, rediscovers what it's like to have a mad kid running around the house. :)

So, we were only at his great grandmother's place for a few hours, and he was up to a lot of no-good :)
