Play time in a bathtub

The bathtub in mom & dad's room hasn't been used since we moved into the house almost a year ago. And, it was Changton who made a debut, in a true, Changton style!!

Riding his boat!

Riding a boat in a bathtub?? No, no...it wasn't our plan. Our actual plan was a grand ride in the pool. As a reward for being such a good boy, mom took Changton down to the pool. Dressed in a swimming gear and with his boat in mom's hand, we were more than ready to jump in the pool.

Unfortunately, the moment we reached the pool, a gardener was spaying some insecticide around the area. Soon after we saw it, we fled! We were so lucky that we came just in time. If we came a bit later, we wouldn't have known about the insecticide and that could be very dangerous for Changton's health.

As the time between going down to the pool and coming back up happened so quick, Changton didn't have time to comprehend what had happened and why we were back so soon. So the boy did not cry or protest. All he had was a 'What-the' face!! Didn't want to upset her little boy, mom decided to let him play in a bathtub instead.

However, Changton was too small to play safely in a bathtub. So mom placed him in the boat. Our bathtub is too small for the boat make a turn, we can manage only backward and forward. Anyway, the boy seemed to have a great time. It was so joyful to watch Changton playing in the bathtub. Our boy is growing up everyday. Soon he will be ready to have a bath in the bathtub, playing with the floating ducks! Just like a mom's dream of kiddy bath ritual.

Yai Jee helped pulling and rocking the boat.

For the record, we saw the rainbow arching over Yang Ming Shan 3 times during these few days. Yai Jee said when we saw the rainbow 3 times and at the same place, we can make a wish. Yai Jee told mom that she already made one. At time, mom did nothing but laughed. Why there are so many beliefs and sayings about the rainbow? But when she finished this this post, she started to think...what would be her wish if she had made one? Interestingly, all the wishes that ran through her mind was all about her Changton!! How could a little boy taking so much space of mom's head???

What is your wish?
