Nua Habit...

This morning was a bit of a struggle with Gaby. He didn't feel like going to school. Was a bit weepy... kept saying that he wants to go back to bed and sleep. But i did manage to get him to put on his uniform, socks and shoes in the end... Then he didn't want to sit in the childseat... haiz... And when we were on the way, he kept repeating that he wants to sleep. Even when we were already in class! Teacher Julia thought that he has played too hard during the school hols.But we explained that he did have lots of rest yesterday. Although he didn't take his usual nap... cos he's too busy playing with his cousins... he hit bed at 7pm till this morning 7am. A straight 12 hours sleep.

I do realised that it has somehow become a habit of him to give the excuse of wanting to go to bed and sleep whenever he is unhappy or that he is being asked to do something that he finds it to be a chore... like having his meals, keeping his toys, going to school, taking a shower... Inez thought that his habit sounded very 'familiar'. She thought he must have 'inherited the nua habit' from me! Actually, while i was telling her about it, i feel as if i'm talking about myself! Oh dear!!!
