Last weekend we made our somewhat mandatory visit to Queensbay Mall and stopped by Toys ‘R Us. Pete spotted the little green soldier toys that was so popular back when we were kids. You know those dark green soldier figurines? Well, now they have it sold nicely in packs like these:
Pete, who was carrying Ethan, picked up a packet to see if it was any different than in the heydays, and of course, Ethan grabbed hold of the packet immediately. He held on to it as if his life depended on it, even when I tried to take it from him. He even screamed loudly in protest when I did that. Tsk tsk… he’s much too young for this la…. although his Daddy is beaming with pride. :p

So did he get the toy soldiers? I remember playing with my brother’s soldiers. We tied the soldier to a handkerchief using a string and dropped them from the double-decker bed. Parachutes!
Joyce says: How innovative! I remember some of my brothers soldiers lost an arm and a leg 😛
