Grace, how could you be so energetic?

Today we let Grace sleep in a little late, just because I made her wake up at 5.30am to take medicine and she could only dozed off half an hour later. After which, she was full of energy for almost the whole day!

We went for brunch then shopping. At the mention of shopping, Grace just sparks up. After shopping, I went down to my uncle's place to get some flowers for tomorrow. There, Grace was having fun looking at the fishes and cycling. Then we went to a local stationery shop to get some envelopes before heading home. It was almost 2pm when we finally reached the comfort of our home.

We decided to have another round of food, guess it should be lunch-tea, of just bread, egg and ham. Grace enjoyed the ham. It was then time for afternoon nap. That's what the adults think! Not the kiddo! She wants to play BALL! So daddy had to play with her, while mummy hang the clothes.

Later, both mummy and daddy couldn't "help" it anymore, and we decided to take our rest and nap, hoping Grace would slowly go to sleep when there's no one to entertain her. Well, think again! I was half asleep (it's my habit, I couldn't really doze off when I know Grace is still awake, for fear that she might be caught up in dangerous actions), and we were so, so wrong about Grace. She continued to play and play and play, talk and talk and talk, pretend and pretend and pretend. Sleep and sleep and sleep is just not in her to-do-list!

At certain point, Grace came to me and said, "Let daddy sleep. Come on, we go outside." The mummy, speechless!

Finally we gave up. And guess what? At about 5.45pm, Grace got scolded from me (not going to details), cried and went straight on to dreamland. Sigh.

She was asleep for about 45 minutes and she was up and jumping around again.

What time did she go to bed tonight? 10.50pm! What did she do before that? Playing lots of games with daddy!
