The National Anthem

Dearest Skyler,

Your school taught you the National Anthem a couple of weeks ago and you happily came home singing it over and over again and asked us to sing it with you since. The problem naturally was that you don't know how to speak Malay and you've been mispronouncing most of the words! :p You've even named the anthem Mari Kita even though the actual name is Majulah Singapura. Papa tries to correct you but to no avail.

You're so enthusiastic about the anthem that you even had Mama record it from the TV broadcast and then asked to watch the video clip over and over again. You would sit in front of the TV and press 'Play' after the song ends again and again. Hahahaaha! It's so cute to see you do that and it's good that you're keen about the country's national anthem but it's probably just another song for you and you most likely have no idea about the significance of the anthem.

Oh well, National Day is around the corner and that's usually when Singaporeans sing the song with gusto so it's good that your school has taught you the song.

Papa and Mama love you lots!
