alex the heart-breaker

thankfully it wasnt my heart that was broken. mine was allowed to grow 2 sizes bigger.

alex is really an adorable kid:) quite a good [as in obedient] one to boot. she managed to sit through the entire handbell performance although she needed some incentives for the second half of the show. that included my lap, my purple nike bag, gum drops, 2 nerds from delicia. she wanted more nerds but her mom didnt allow and she had to make do with staring at and smelling the box. my empty ricola box was filled with a few nerds to make a "shaker". we told her to shake only when people were clapping and shake she did. at the end she even pretended the box was a camera and she was taking shots of the ringers. cos of her, i didnt really listen to the 2nd half - had to make sure she didnt shake at the wrong time, or move too much, was talking to her..but well it was ok lah. my sis wanted to carry her but she didnt allow although picture taking was allowed. hah..thats the heartbroken one.

the age of 4 is one of the best for phototaking cos they can smile on demand and are basically so cute too. we had photo time with her and of her. too bad some shots turned out bad cos she moved..the only bad thing abt that age. cos of her fascination with my bag [it had to be on her lap while she was on my lap] we wanted a shot of that but it turned out blurry:( it was sooo cute lah..my shoulder bag was a just-nice sling bag for her:)

the perfect end of the night was the "superduperalexhug" which was a hug that was super tight finished with a peck on the check. that made the night so worth it. i shall seek her out in church tmr for another dose of it:)

and just for the record. met alicia k today:) it has been uber long.
