Lucas' 3rd year

You never fail to make us laugh with your funny antics.
Preschool has been great for you.You can write your full name and count to 100 before 3 years old.
But coloring and drawing isn't one of your best skills yet.
You still love all things numbers, shapes and alphabets. And PlayDoh and Kinetic sand.
You enjoy going to school especially on the days that you are the Calendar helper or the Weather person or the Leader.

We still struggle with your eating habits. It is chicken tenders/nuggets every day. And occasional fried okra or fried fish. And seaweed and black sesame paste. You quit eating fried shrimp and applesauce. Oh how I wish you would try rice and cereal, and vege! But you would at least eat cake and icing now!

And we found out you could read! We just happened to hear you reading everything out loud one day so I don't know when you actually started reading. You would just read all the signs you see at the grocery store, and store fronts, lyrics to your favorite songs, and sometimes you would read over our shoulders when we are trying to read our book. And now that you can read, you can also change channels on the TV and have full control of the remote. Your favorite channel is NickJr. You know all the names of every cartoon character.

And you also remember every name and person that come across your path. Even the kids you met briefly at Chick-Fil-A. You never forget a name or a face.

You are also our grocery list maker, because you remember all the things we need. I found a paper with your writing "Eggs, Bread, Milk" in my purse one day

Dada is now Daddy. MahMo is now MawMaw. Mommy is still Mommy, but some times you will try a Mom or Bernadette when you are trying to get my attention.

Your 3rd birthday cake you wanted an elephant cake so Mommy made you one.

We went for our annual beach vacation with the family and you had a blast with your cousins. Not a fan of sunblock, and not afraid of the water at all.
It is time to sign you up for swim lessons.
You enjoyed PorPor and Kung Kung's visit and was sad when they left after 5 months. Then we have 6 Yee and Yat Onn come to visit for 2 weeks. You had lots of fun on the mountains with them and at the beach again. Again, you were really sad when they left.
