How (much) do I love thee? This much! (1.54MB)

There is fun to be had in everything… even doing the laundry!
I insist on going to the laundry room with mama or papa (4.71MB).
I help out where I can, or if not, I supervise the loading and unloading. I don’t know what they’d do without me!

You know how I like to bathe. It’s not because I like to be clean, it’s just so much fun!
Once in a blue moon I get a bubble bath and that is even more fun. But I have discovered that I like to shower like mama or papa.
Normally papa will use my “hippo” shower head [...]

The day of the telephone operator is almost over. But if you call the Tan household, don’t be surprised if you hear from me first!
I love to pick up the phone. There is even a challenge as I have to get it before the answering machine kicks in!
I like bringing the phone over to mama [...]

They say I have just memorized the numbers, what they look like, and how [...]

You already know that mama reads me bedtime stories. Two books of my choice, that’s the policy. But what a nice way to end the day!
Not too long ago, I decided that I should return the favor. So I sometimes sing before I sleep. At least I try to.
I go through my repertoire of twinkly [...]

Papa is getting forgetful! He didn’t share something of me with you on my behalf. He forgot to post a photo of me playing with a wagon!
Where are his priorities?! They should be with me-me-me, not with his dessert-thingy or attending meetings or teaching online or grading work. Everything I do should be savored and [...]

OK, no prizes for guessing that I did not get to build my snow man. The snow just wasn’t wet enough!
Fortunately, I did manage to play in the snow with my shovel, cups, and bucket. I loved bish-bish-bishing down the snow walls and bucket castles that mama and papa made.
My folks tell me that [...]
