Itchy Hands

Our 弟弟 has always had itchy hands since small. His hands cannot hold still, he has to touch or meddle with something. He will turn on the switches he can find. He will shutdown our PC with his itchy hands. He'd turn off the TV and run to turn off the switch. He knows how to turn on my foot massager. He'd mess with the rice cooker buttons and toaster too. Luckily he did not get hurt so far. Got a pretty good spanking from 爸爸 about messing with switches and electrical stuff. I'm glad as it's very dangerous for little children like him to mess with things he doesn't know how to operate properly and safely. He picks out all the paper wrapping from the crayons and makes a mess. Wherever he goes, he'd leave behind a trail of toys, books, stuff. Sometimes he'd irritate 姐姐 by playing with her 家家酒 toys or pretend party or pretend shop and she is hopping mad over it. That's when she'd scream his name and 'Hey!' at him.

He got a scolding from me tonight as he was trying to play with 爸爸's razor while brushing his teeth. After changing his pajamas he meekly trot to the bedroom to sleep.

姐姐 was never like this! The only thing she'd rub between her fingers is her beloved blanket! I regretted not buying similar ones when the blanket is still available, as it had EOL'ed, EOS'ed and extint.

弟弟 is a hoarder! Just look at all the toys he has hoarded in this tiny space near to where he sleeps. Maybe he feels insecure because he is sharing room with 姐姐. I didn't realize that he minded until I saw this piling up. We'll have to see what we can do about it. Both children are also influenced by the Three Little Pigs story and keep building house with the pillows, bolsters, blankets, toys to map their terrotorries. We tried to put a stop to it but bad habits die hard....
