I have been thinking.... what's a suitable title this time? I can't think of one. Maybe you can help.
When Jesslyn was born, she wasn't beautiful. In fact, she looked 'not pretty'. As she grows, she turns into a beautiful duckling. Hmm... maybe 'beautiful' is over-rated. Anyway, she does attract attention wherever she goes. Waiters especially would tease her, touches her cheeks and talks to her. She gets the attention because of her .... big round eyes? Friendly smile? cheeky look? China doll hair? I don't know. Maybe a mixture of the above. Jerilyn gets the attention because of her vivacious style. Overall, Jesslyn is the one who makes people stop.
Last Friday, we had an early Mother's Day celebration at Moven Peak's. This time, the special attention that she got was almost unbearable. The Bangladeshi touched her cheeks every time he came to our table. That was more than 5x. Daddy and I were so pissed off that Daddy told her loudly "Tell him not to touch you" when the waiter was within an audible distance. Jerilyn looked a bit offended and unhappy at first. Later, she asked "Mummy, why all the men like her?" To make her feel better, I answered "They know that you are tough and cannot be disturbed. So, the men dare not disturb you." I hope she does feel better after that and be proud of herself.

Tooth Decay
For the past few days, tooth decay has been the main concern in my family. Daddy thinks that it's a crisis! So, who has tooth decay. Look at the picture below and take a guess.
After bathing the kids last Saturday, Daddy told me that Jesslyn has a hole in her tooth. The news was like a leaking bombshell (if bombs ever leak). He took photographs to show Jesslyn herself. Not only is there a hole, the two front teeth are brownish as you can see from the picture above. He threatened to bring her to the dentist. She said No. Otherwise, she had no feeling or showed any other reaction towards her decayed tooth. Daddy complained that Jesslyn took it too easy. I thought to myself "What does he expect from a 3yo kid who has never had her tooth checked by a man in a white robe." The days after, we made her brushes her teeth twice a day. I wasn't strict with teeth brushing rule. Now, I am forced to. Coincidentally, hubs and I had our teeth scaled that very same morning. It was a 'teethy' day.
