Mummy or Daddy?

The daddy is not at all convinced. Think it is because both choo and littlejerard closed their eyes. Will change a photo another day.

Children's Day

Today is Children's Day so littlejerard's decided to get more attention from mum and dad by crying louder and harder.

Singaporean children celebrate Children's Day every 1 October. On this day, the Children's Day Song, Semoga Bahagia by Zubir Said is sung. This song tells of the values the children should have and encourages them to go for their dreams to provide value to the world. At the same time, it wishes them success and happiness.

Semoga Bahagia
Sama-sama maju ke hadapan
Pandai cari pelajaran
Jaga diri dalam kesihatan
Serta sopan-santun dengan kawan-kawan
Dengan hati bersih serta suci
Sama-sama hormat dan berbudi
Jaga tingkah pemuda-pemudi
Adat dan budaya junjung tinggi
Capailah lekas cita-cita pemudi-pemuda
Supaya kita ada harga di mata dunia
Kalau kita lengah serta lupa
Hidup kita sia-sia
Jiwa besar sihat serta segar
Rajin dengan sabar tentu bahagia
Lemah lembut perangai pemudi
Cergas tangkas wataknya pemuda
Suka rela selalu berbakti
Sikap yang pembela dan berjasa
Capailah nama yang mulia pemudi-pemuda
Rajinlah supaya berjaya semoga bahagia
