Money Box

I decided to buy Paige a money box and explained to her that if she helps mummy with doing jobs I will give her pocket money and when the money box becomes full she can spend the money. The next morning she woke up and was really upset because her money box wasn't full it took some explaining that money doesn't grow like plants.

Visiting The Frogs

Since arriving in Hanoi we have found a couple of different restaurants that we really like. One is called the "Rung Forest" which is located up the road from where we are staying. Paige calls it the Frogie restaurant as they have a very large pond with many fogs that live there. The staff just love her so when we arrive we get hellos and Paige is taken out the back to see the big fish or she visits the pond to do frog spotting. Paige has even got her favorite meal, steam rice (she calls white rice) with clay pot chicken but wont eat the onions in it. Paige says "Grandma doesn't like onions" which I was surprised she remembered that detail.
