Dear Parents,
My boy wanted me to blog about him after he saw my blog about my girl. He's the one who came up with the title which I thought describes him pretty well.
Besides the courage to go on stage to sing, dance, act and show off his wushu moves, he has the courage to try new things even though he has to endure some degree of pain. When he first tried on the ortho-k hard lens, he did not cry or rub his eyes even though it was painful. Another incident that struck me was how he overcame his spinning headache to put up his best performance during the recent public performance at the Art House organized by his singing teacher, Jiu Jian:

I just read him a bedtime story, Praise by George Tan from the Chicken Soup for the Singapore Soul. He just said, "I like this story" and he fell asleep. I remembered we cried and blew our noses after reading Willy's Clinic by Dr. Ang Peng Tiam when he was 7 years old. We were touched by Dr. Ang's kindness and Willy's perserverance. Till today, he still remembers Willy's story.
My son is a joker. His idol is SpongeBob SquarePants. We enjoy a good laugh watching SpongeBob cartoon together. He told me if SpongeBob were a human being, the world would be a funnier place. He cited the part where SpongeBob was late for work for one minute. The next day, he decided to sleep overnight in the restaurant to make sure he would not be late for work. He finds it very funny and silly. I added that SpongeBob is a very responsible person and he agreed. We also feel that SpongeBob is a very kind and optimistic guy. He loves his pals in Bikini Bottom, even Squidword, the mean guy who always belittle him. We also find SpongeBob one of a kind. He has the courage to be himself and not follow the crowd. Thanks to my courageous and joker son, I get to know SpongeBob and re-live my childhood. More importantly, besides sharing laughters together, we get to rub off some of SpongeBob's wisdom on our kids and ourselves. Hahaha.....
Yours Truly,
Joker's Loving Mum
