robot boy
the movie
an's latest interest is none other than leader of the autobots, optimus prime, from the animated series, comics & recent hit movie, transformers. we brought him to the big screen on a school day, after school i.e., as a surprise. an was indeed happily surprised when he found out that we were going to watch transformers! hubs & i'd planned this earlier & took a day off work so that we can break the everyday routine & take him to the movies on a weekday. the cinema is also less crowded which is a good thing.
the toy
when we went out for lunch on one of my long friday lunch breaks, with time to spare, we headed to a departmental store to look at books. next to the books is the toy section & from a distance, we spotted the neat shelves filled with the new action figures from transformers. an of course flipped out. i did too but tried not to show too much excitement! because he has been behaving well, i told him to choose ONE toy only. so he took his sweet time & carefully decided on a reasonably priced* optimus prime from the rest & stayed very faithful to it ever since. he carries it everywhere he goes & for the first time, he takes great pride + care of his toy. i'd say he has been transformed :o)
* an likes looking at price tags/stickers & reading them out. i believed his interest in numbers grew after he started kindy this year. when he runs through the prices in any shops, he'll pick out items & ask me, "mommy, is this expensive? " or "mommy, do you need a lot of money to buy this? "
