Kiddy Tales 3

...When Adriel was 8 - 10 years old and Jeriel was 5 - 7 years old.


 


Bigger And Older Means...
Jeriel: Mommy, you know, daddy can scold you because he's bigger and older!
Mommy: No, who says that?
Jeriel: Then why Gong Gong (grandpa) can scold Po Po (grandma)?
Mommy: Oh no...Gong Gong always talks very loudly. That's the way he talks! He doesn't mean to scold Po Po!
Jeriel: Yes...then why you can scold me? Because you're bigger and older!
Oh my! Mamas and Papas, just be very careful with our actions and what comes out of our mouths! The kids are watching!


Smokers Die Fast!
Our neighbor was smoking in the garage.
Jeriel: Mommy, Uncle Dixon will die before us because he smokes, right?
Mommy: No, not really...
Jeriel: Yes...smokers will die very fast!


Sweet Dream, Mommy...
Jeriel whispered at my ears...
Jeriel: Good night, sweet dream, sleep tight. God bless you, I love you, God loves you.
Mommy: God loves you and I love you, too!
He's just so sweet...


You Can Breathe And I Can't!
Jeriel didn't quite like his swimming lesson. So on the way to the pool one day...
Jeriel: Every time I swim, I'm like drowning. I can't breathe. You're so good, just sit there and watch...and you can breathe!
Mommy: ... (his complaint was valid!)


I'm Beautiful, And I'm Useful!
While looking at my hands one day, I asked Adriel if he preferred me with a pair of beautiful hands or a pair of hands that can do work. He said the latter.

Asked Jeriel the same question. He said beautiful hands.

Mommy: But beautiful hands can't work. Then I'll not clean the house, wash your clothes, cook for you...
Jeriel: No, I have beautiful hands but I can still brush my teeth, hold my pencil, play with my toys! You can have beautiful hands and can still work!


What A Name!
Jeriel: Mommy, what was your name when you were a child?
Mommy: My current name.
Jeriel: No, not this name. Your child name.
Mommy: I don't have different names. My name is the same from baby till now!
Jeriel: Then why your name sounds like adult's name, and my name like child's name? I thought when you were young you had a child name.
Mommy: Well, when you grow up, your name will sound like adult's name as well!
Jeriel: I know.
Mommy: ...


My God Is Real God
Jeriel: Mommy, I asked Cikgu Tee if she's Christian or Buddhist.
Mommy: What did she say?
Jeriel: She said Buddhist. I told her only Christian's God is real God.
Mommy: What did she say then?
Jeriel: She said "mmm-hmm".


Praise The Lord!
Mommy: Luckily we...
Jeriel: No, mommy, you don't say 'Luckily'. You say 'Thank God' or 'Praise the Lord'!
