Valentines gift

Today is Valentine and I of course do not receive any present from my Valentine. Joe is never good at buying present and I actually not very fond of receiving presents too. If people give me a gift, I do not find great joy. I prefer little kindness in the daily lives. People doing some service for me like helping to do chores or such. I hate most when people do not believe in my ability and even criticise me. That is what my mum in law did this morning and I asked Joe to advise her as I could not tolerate it anymore. She is capable to always put me down and that is really frustrating. Joe had a talk with her and she at least not so critical today.

in the afternoon,our eldest son gave us a nasty time. He refused to go for Chinese Tuition. He ran away and hid himself. After we sent the other two to school we came back and he had climbed into the house as we forgot to close a window. We ask him to go to school and told him we would take away along his priviledges but he still refused. He threw things at me and I was so mad I dragged him outside. He ran off in the rain. I made sure all doors and windows were shut and decided to drive to Hurstville which was half an hour away. However, we did not stop to do any shopping as everywhere was very crowded. We all decided to head home.

When we reached home, we found Charles at the backyard near the shelter bins area. He was feeling cold and shivering. Its kinda serves him right for being so defiant. I quickly made him a Milo and then we asked if he wanted to go to class. He finally said yes after some thought as he would have to face the consequences of not going swimming carnival, chess lesson and skating lesson if he stayed at home.

Joe and Channery drove him there and the time was nearly 4.15pm. However, ten minutes later the Principal called to say that he had run out of the school. Joe did not send him up to the class and let him go in by himself. He was scared when the Principal asked if he was late or going to the toilet. We quickly got into the car and went searching for him. In the end, he walked back to school and went back to his class.

Somehow this boy is really a headache. the twins claimed theu hate te teacher and refused to go for lesson. Somehow I am not going to be so tight up with their weird behaviour if not I will surely go crazy.

God bless the twins and hope they will learn to love Chinese language.
