I can read!
Mummy's persistent flashing has paid off. I can now read the whole alphabet, although my pronunciation is not always accurate. For example, I insist on pronouncing 'm' as 'mum' as in food. Whenever an adult goes 'm is for..' I'll go 'mum mum'. I can also read some basic words like 'duck', 'boy', 'girl', 'jam', 'vase' and 'zebra'. The last word is pronounced as 'biba' according to me. I think the whole world should talk like me, then I can understand everyone better.
Daddy and mummy are now worried that I am becoming a little potato or little banana, cos I only know English. Mummy is making daddy flash chinese words at me, cos she doesn't want me to be in the CLB class when I go to school. However, I have yet to recognise any of them. Check back here regularly and mummy will let you know when I say my first chinese word.
