Happiness Journal 19/10/25
Slept in until 8.45am today, which means that both children woke up later than me. What a rarity in the duty-bound era of fatherhood! I just might see a unicorn next.
Spent quality time with each of my children. The daughter in the morning, and the son in the afternoon. Both outings culminated in visits to the supermarket and Daiso respectively. I realised that I have been more lax in my spending habits. If it is something unusual that catches our fancy and promises to tantalise our tastebuds, I will buy it without hesitating too much. Which explains why I was drinking a can of boba milk tea with the son outside Dyson service center this afternoon. Child-rearing sanity needs to be bought with gimmicks like this.
During dinner, the son enlightened me that platypuses have poison in their claws. Incredulous, I Googled for the truth and realised that he was half right - male platypuses have venomous spurs on their hind ankles. Stunned, I asked him how he had learnt this information. He nonchalantly replied, “Pokemon” and showed me this platypus toy for good measure.
Who knew that a game can enlighten children about animal adaptations?! Colour me impressed.
