I love the way children are so innocent.
Whenever Tee is doing something illegal, up to no good, she will fore-warn us outright.
Like, “Mummy, please don’t look under my bed because I’ve hidden my drug addict boyfriend there.”
OK, maybe at that age, she’d be a little smarter and practise the art of subtlety, “Mummy, have you cleaned my room today because if you haven’t, don’t bother. I’ll do it myself. I feel like I’m in a cleaning mood today. There’s a lot of dust under the bed with my books and all, and I don’t want you hurting your back bending over. Don’t clean my room, OK?”
You know???
Whenever Tee is caught with Smarties, something her Nana is fond of buying her, she immediately moves the Smarties box slow motion away from our sight. And when she catches us watching her, she’d command us to look the other way. Look anywhere else but at her. It is interesting to note that she doesn’t swift the box of Smarties away in a flash but rather in snail fashion whilst her eyes transfixes on ours when she goes, “No, you don’t look at me. Look at the window. Look outside. No, you don’t look at me, MUMMY!” whilst she points her teeny index finger side to side like a Kindergarten teacher.
Then there are moments when I am busy cooking in the kitchen when she will run in to say, “Mummy? You cook dinner for me and Daddy, OK? You don’t come into the bedroom. OK? Don’t come into the bedroom.” Then she runs off and I immediately have this instinct that she is up to tricks. Haha….who wouldn’t? And of course, five minutes later, when I’ve washed my hands and walk into the bedroom to check on how bad the damage is, there will be a roar of exasperation.
Aren’t they cute? Kids? They have the ability to make you laugh and cry all at once. *sigh/smile*
“No-no, you don’t look here, Mummy….”
(please excuse Tee’s uncoordinated choice of accessories. I hope she has better taste when she grows up. *smile wishfully*)

My warning sirens go off when the house gets too quiet. It’s like… “how come no sound ah? What are they doing?” Crazy isn’t it? The whole day I tell them to quiet down and when they do, I suspect something is amiss. How can my children not be nuts? They follow after me 🙂
Hey, when they are kids, there is no such thing as uncoordinated choice of accessories or colors. They have immunity and look cute in whatever, right?
Ahah! So you’re nuts? Maybe we have something in common. You’re right. Kids are cute – period.
I read your accounts of Tee’s antics… and I am just speechless. Because I know that feeling of exasperation all too well, but I can offer no words of advice! I think at the end of the day, there’s more to laugh about than anything else. She’s such a precious lil’ lady your Tee!
hahaha….well, you have TWO girls to deal with.
Hey I like her colourful bracellet or is it watch! It’s really pretty.
It’s a play watch – made out of wood.
even with the uncoordinated accessories, she looks great!!! *hugz*
