Andrea 4yrs 1month

Andrea's milestone:
(1) Still at summer academy, genio art, suzuki violin (3 recital thus far), shichida
(2) do homework every night - shichida worksheets, kumon workbook, practise violin
(3) started kumon grade 1 subtraction - this is purely for her abacus counting as her fingers are confusing to her. will go back to kumon math skills when her foundation is strong. I want her to count without fingers or abacus.
(4) do not like other people to be better than her (I need to stop people around her to OVER PRAISE her)
(5) At home, still need the maid to feed. She has a habit of doing everything slowly & dreamy - eating, doing maths, playing the violin, getting up from bed, wearing her shoes. I'm not sure is her EG star making her this or my HO star making me irritated because I hate slow people! How to overcome scolding??
(6) Still drinks milk before sleep, bring out the bottle after drinking. Fell asleep in her own bed, always waking up on the floor. Always play with her ipad before sleep. Change her own pajamas and bring out used clothes to the basket herself.
(7) only need 4 days for memorizing 50 linking memory. Can understand Cantonese well (will ask us question after me and hubby talk to each other). Love to watch high 5 & charlie and lola still. Trying to pronounce words by herself. Can read simple words. love to eat sweets ... (I'm stopping her because it has damage the brain - she has hard time memorizing allegretto)
(8) Love to enjoy fine things. clothes & food. always only choose nice clothes and always ask daddy to bring her to restaurant at hotel. Love Julie to tie her hair nicely and put on hair clip herself. 
(9) Cheerful and happy girl (not until i scream at her - anyway, she ignores me too), love to LAUGH with friends and benjamin out of no where. Loves to go playground, running. Love to whisper (since 1 month ago). Love to put vitamin E (same gang as daddy) on scar. Love to watch video on imac. 
(10) Love to drink caprisonne, chocolate milk and plain biscuit. Daily will eat either of it when arrive home from grandma house. Loves to draw with colour pencil, crayon, magic colour, water colour and stamping ink. Andrea is very helpful and independent.
