My 4 Darlings - RNRR: It's Flashcards Time!

It's Flashcards Time!

Dear YY n NN n DD
Flashcard session is the routine in our family life now.
Maybe not so for you, YY, now that you are matured enough to handle other more difficult activities.
This actually stem from Mummy's belief in the new age culture of brain training era. And it helps that you 3 enjoy these flashcard sessions very much. Maybe 20-30 years down the road, when you have babies of your own, you may jolly well be doing the same thing, or this belief may have been thrown out by some other reasoning.
At this very instant, Mummy is still happy to continue with this for as long as you like.

Hugs & Kisses
Mummy

P/s: This 2 days, Papa and Mummy are on a jogging spree after work every evening with you, YY and NN. Really looking forward to having DD join us soon.
