hundredth

yup, this is my 100^th post & i call for a celebration!

woo hoo! i never thought (ever) that
i'd write this much & would actually enjoy blogging to bits.
so it's true when they say once you start,
you can't STOP!

the person who got me started on this
is a dear friend from high school & college,
as a way of keeping & staying in touch.
now she's a proud mommy to
beautiful ashley & aidan!

along this purposeful & electronically FUN path,
i've found more old friends, made some new ones,
& got in touch with family members
who are gazillion miles away!

mommy ta66y hopes to have more
precious, amusing & entertaining moments recorded here.

that's how lil han would play contentedly & quietly by himself most of the time, lying on his front with his arms & legs outstretched. a toy car in one hand, he'd slowly move it back & forth, observing the wheels in motion. sometimes he'll use one of his bigger toys, the red fire engine or the bright yellow dump truck & does the same with 'em, watching the black, round, patterned tyres going round and round! he's standard question pertaining to wheels would be, "why the tyres?" & one must answer him, "the tyres go round & round." if not, he'll repeatedly ask the same question tirelessly until he gets his standard answer & be satisfied with it.

if we're on the road & he's sitting on my lap, i notice that he'd be looking at the wheels of the vehicles passing us. his eyes will shine even brighter if we're stuck in a jam next to a huge container lorry. i've even caught him starring up at the random lorry driver a couple of times (out of admiration perhaps?) & his face would break into a smile even if the driver wasn't looking back.

lil boys' fascination with wheels at a tender age would, i suppose eventually progress into bigfoot for bigger, older boys (yes? no?) or else how would one explain the much raved about, yet exaggerated-looking monster truck with outrageously humongous wheels :o)
