My Latest Skills

Everybody knows that Shafiq is very good at spinning things esp. toys (including himself!). I’m not sure where or when he learnt to master the skill, it juz happens. Besides spinning things, he enjoys watching (educational, of course) VCD very much since he was 3 months old. Recently we bought him B***ny B*by VCD set, one of it entitled Pee-Ka-Boo which he’ll watch again and again… I love to play Pee-Ka-Boo with him too but his Achik Salwa who’d always spend time to play the game with him back in Malaysia. During that time Shafiq would only be the passive participant – laughing happily to his Achik’s funny acts. But to my great surprise, now he was the one who will be Pee-Ka-Booing at me using his bath towel & abah’s car sunshade!!! Wow, this is amazing (even though he’ll fell awkward doing Pee-Ka-Boo using his own hands, who cares, as long he understands the basic concept, right?)

Apart from the above mentioned skill, Shafiq also knows how to clap hands. Every now and then he’ll clap hands to celebrate his victory of doing dangerous actions such as climbing stool, bed, chair and bookshelves. Sigh!!! He’ll clap hands when he listens to his favourite music. There were couples of time that he ‘miss’ the clap (the right and left hand don’t actually touch each other, hence doesn’t produce the clapping sound).

I’m not sure about this one, is it a skill or what… He’s good at observing, not counting, though (or shall I say monitoring???) the jackets & keys hanging at their place. He knows that when there are missing jacket and (car or house) keys, he soon understand that somebody is leaving the house WITHOUT HIM!!! How could they do that to me??? Don’t they know how bored I am being ‘locked’ in the house all the time??? (he might think so).
