...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'! |
