She likes to hold on to Mr Blue in the day as a comfort object..
\nBut in the night, she will do away with Mr Blue, preferring the linen cloth instead.
\nShe says, “Daddy’s cloth, Mummy’s cloth (referring to our blankets), Zara’s cloth”<\/span><\/p>\n

She saw Daddy working on our clogged drain pipe on Sunday.
\nWhen the plumber came and worked on the problem, she pointed to the plumber and said, “like Daddy.”<\/span><\/p>\n

She thinks all trucks are rubbish trucks. She says, “Rubbish Truck!<\/span>” when she sees one and then fans her nose and says, “Smelly<\/span>“.<\/p>\n

She orders her meal.
\nFor breakfast Tuyam makes her oat, she will say, “put banana”<\/span> or “put raisin”<\/span>, depending on what she wants.
\nFor lunch, she requests for “fish ball”<\/span> or “bread and cheese”<\/span>.
\nFor dinner, she wants “steam fish and pork”<\/span> (although we never cook pork at home and let her settle with fish).<\/p>\n

She requests to have us read her a book before bed time.
\n“Read book book!”<\/span> and then chooses her own book.
\n“Crab book”<\/span> (referring to my DK Visual Encyclopedia, she likes the pictures, especially on the living things)
\n“Big book”<\/span> (referring to her First 1000 Words Book)
\n“Snake book”<\/span> (referring to her Size Book, as there’s a big snake on one of the pages)
\n(her top 3 favourite)
\nAnd on days she prefers a story to be told, “<\/span>Maisy book<\/span><\/a>“<\/span> or “<\/span>Mr Night book<\/span><\/a>“.<\/span><\/p>\n

She thinks mummy is her jukebox.
\n“Mc Donald!”<\/span> She looks at me and says. Asking me to sing the Old Mc Donald song.
\nor “Bingo!”<\/span>
\nor “Baby”<\/span> (and she would proceed to lie in my arms) referring to Rock A Bye Baby.<\/p>\n

She sometimes asks Tuyam to sing too, but Tuyam will be singing out of tune or forget the words, and Zara would say, “Kakak don’t know one!<\/span>“<\/p>\n
