In the spirit of nationalistic pride, we did a little art and craft with the kids this morning. Me and the husband (ok, mostly the husband) squeezed out every ounce of our artistic talent and drew a beautiful picture of the Singapore flag, complete with the crescent and 5 stars.
The kids were all like “what’s that daddy, what’s that?” and we were all “What have you kids been learning in school? This is the Singapore flag la, like that also don’t know.”
Tru took one look at it and said “No, this is not the Singapore flag. It’s wrong.” So obviously their national education hasn’t been going very well or the husband needs to go for art lessons.
We wanted to teach them what the 5 stars meant but we figured it was more important to teach them to do the 2-finger peace sign while holding the flag (it’s now the Singapore sign, thanks to a certain MP). No matter how hard she tried, poor Kirsten could only muster the claw. Maybe we’ll get her a Kate Spade to see if it’ll help give her fingers some extra dexterity.
Happy National Day, everyone!
Peace out! (and this is me doing the peace sign, y’all)
