Kiddy Tales
Innocent phrases from innocent minds...smile...
Joke Me Not!
Jeriel would take things seriously, especially what you said to him. He would be
very upset had someone made fun of him. Sometimes I did feel bad after teasing
him. If you think you wanna joke with your kids, better think again so as not to
hurt them unintentionally.
The following conversation took place when Jeriel was 6 years old.

I'm Brainy, Not Stony Or Empty! |
| Gently knocked on Jeriel's head
and teased him. |
| Mommy: |
Let me listen, hmm...it's empty inside! |
| Jeriel: |
Argh...(protest)...then you're saying I've
no brain and can't think! (He's quite angry) |
| Mommy: |
Let me listen again...(knocked again)
Yea...I think now there's something... |
| Jeriel: |
(Smiled) You mean I have brain inside now? |
| Mommy: |
Let me see...so hard...maybe stone inside!! |
| Jeriel: |
Argh...(protest again, really angry now) |
| Mommy: |
No...it's your brain!! |
| Jeriel: |
Then why first you said empty, then stone in
my head? |
| Mommy: |
Sorry, I'm just kidding. |
| Jeriel: |
... (still angry) |
| You really can't make fun of
Jeriel's brain! |
|
Kiwi Tree |
| Jeriel: |
Mommy, I accidentally ate a kiwi fruit seed. |
| Mommy: |
Really? In your stomach now? |
| Jeriel: |
Mmm... |
| Mommy: |
You have food and water in your stomach as
well? |
| Jeriel: |
Yea... |
| Mommy: |
Then it makes a perfect place for the seed
to grow to a kiwi tree! Very soon you can pluck kiwi fruits from your own
kiwi tree right from your head! |
| Jeriel: |
Argh...(angry) |
| Mommy: |
It's just a joke! |
| Jeriel: |
(Protest) This is what I don't like (mom
teasing him)! |
| Mommy: |
Sorry. I apologize, ok? Come over here...(a
big hug) |
| Jeriel: |
(Nod his head) Ok. But promise you don't
tease me, ok? |
| Mommy: |
Ok. |
Jeriel can't take jokes, just like his papa! I do hope he has a better sense of
humor later on.
