Peace and calming for the girls

Not an easy task to calm the kids

It is not easy to calm down the girls when either one of them keeps on crying non stop or is making a lot of noise. Wifey had always been the one who is able to do that better. This is not an easy task, so to say.

Sound very tactical and with strategy if wifey is able to find their weak points. Mummy will always know the best.

Instead of scolding them or asking them to keep their mouths shut, which would only make matters worse, hubby had long ago started the "look at them" method. All he does is nothing but to look at them until they go tired, and willingly stop their tantrums. Then a debrief is done to understand what they were thinking and why they were wrong etc.

Yes, although the noise can trigger everyone's temper, hubby insists that this is the only best way, unless it is late at night.

 The more comments they say, the worse they can get it from the girls.

Peace and Calming 

When the girls had quieten down, wifey will attempt to use the natural way to ensure they feel calm. The Ongies had been using this - YL Peace and Calming Essential Oil for the past 6 months and it is pretty effective.

All wifey did is to apply the oil on the back of the girls' ears or diffuse the essential oil using the ultrasonic diffuser.

It is not an instant 180 degree change of course. This is no magic concoction at all. But it does help to calm the girls down, and the whole family too.

Their tantrums are occurring quite frequently, sometimes it is just sparked off by who gets more honey stars at breakfast, or who takes a particular book to read. This happened again this morning and after a short while of applying the essential oils, the girls were not as cranky and became smiley when hubby sent the girls to school this morning. Instead of the usual crying and shouting, the girls obliged to walk together and entered the school cheerfully.

This entry is almost forgotten, hence posting it right now. Jiak Tok is one of the common practice for most Chinese, especially to deity or during hungry ghost month. What is the main purpose for it? Basically, raise fund. Currently, the temple The Ongies often go, is still new and undergoing some renovations, that's where the devotees will come and chip in. Back then, Cait was just few months old when she first attend to such occasion. Now, Clar turn. During the period of bidding and consuming of food, both princesses are quite cooperative and did not fuss a lot until later on. Partly due to heat and noise. But it is a good experience for them. Bidding in progress Food and drink on the table She love clapping Happy wifey and Cait Food

It's the period of praying to Tai Sui now during Chinese New Year. Almost all Chinese will head up to temple to get blessing from Tai Sui . For those zodiac sign that crash with the year of Tai Sui must pray for smooth year. Every year, there will be 4 zodiac signs that crash with Year of Tai Sui . Chong is worse than Fan.  It is better to pray to Tai Sui every year; at least you get bless. When praying to Tai Sui , you must not forget to return thanks back before end of year; which is before Christmas Day,  after Dong Zhi . Cait and Clar will get bless as well, same goes to rest of the family. The usual place they often went is at Paya Lebar, Gu Cai Ba Temple (Sheng Hong Gong). You can go and pray after registering yourself; pray to the main altar, then to the 60 Tai Sui before queuing up for the toaist priest to chant. It will be a long queue if you go early or noon. The best time will be early evening around 5pm. There's almost no queuing up at all. Things wil
