Arman's Favorite T-shirt

About twice a year I would go through the kids' closets and throw out clothes that they don't fit into anymore. I don't actually throw them out (as in into the trash bin), I usually donate the "good ones" to goodwill. This de-clutters the house, and lets me take notes on the kids' clothing needs. 

Arman doesn't care much about what he wears. He usually wears whatever he could grab in his closet - he doesn't care much about wearing things that fit him and appropriate for the weather. But, there's one t-shirt that he loves to wear. He outgrew it (he got it about 2 to 3 years ago from Mak Long). He used to wear it all the time, so this t-shirt went through rapid wash-wear cycle. I decided to keep this t-shirt as a momento.

The t-shirt is bright orange (below). Arman looks good in bright, warm colours. But I think he likes it because it has a bit of an attitude. The t-shirt says: "Hear no evil... See no evil... Speak no evil... That's no fun!!!" 

Arman's favorite t-shirt - bright orange with an attitude. I remember him wearing this all the time.

Oh, come to think of it, Arman does like t-shirts with a bit of attitude. Here's one that he really likes and could still wear. He chose this himself, which is quite a rarity. Arman's usually more of a I-like-what-you-like-just-pick-something type of guy. 

Arman likes this t-shirt too (one of the few clothing items that he picked himself). This one also has an attitude.

Thank You Cards

Arman and I took on a small project last weekend. We wrote thank you cards for the boys (and Gillian) who came to celebrate Arman's birthday in December last year. Arman wrote this message for the boys:

Dear XXX,
Thank you for coming to my birthday party. I hope you had a great time.
- Arman

I took pictures of each boy who came to the party and had them printed. Each boy gets his picture as a small token from us. Just something that would remind them of the fun they had.


The thank you cards and pictures

Arman taking his task seriously

Proudly showing off the finished product
This is good exercise for both Arman and I. Arman gets to practice his handwriting and hopefully, he forms good habit in terms of writing thank you notes. I get to spend some time with Arman by helping with the cards and I also need to get into the habit of writing thank you notes.

Conversation with Arman

Between Arman and Mommy about 2 weeks ago...

Arman : What are you reading Mommy?
Mommy: Newspaper
Arman : What's in the newspaper Mommy?
Mommy: A student fell from the roof... and died
Arman : Is the police investigating it?
Mommy: I'm sure they are.
Arman : Do they think it's homicide or suicide?

Conclusion: We've been watching too many episodes of Monk on DVDs...

An Author in the Family

I've always dreamed of becoming an author, writing a book. But apparently Arman has beaten me to it. He wrote a book about books. Here it is:


Translation:

Book about Books
By Arman Azroy

Authored by a kid that is 6


Note: I assume he meant 6 since he canceled the 5 and circled 6 instead.






Translation:

Book have to have a title.













Translation:

Book have to have an author.














Translation:

Some books have a cover












Translation:

Some books have a picture













And of course....

















He wrote this book all by himself, and stapled the pages together. How original... a book about books... why didn't I think of that...
