As most of my interaction with my kids happen in the car (so sad, right? But what to do, the moment we get home, everyone is busy with their own responsibilities), I have started documenting the Heard in the Car series:
15/4/15
T2: Mommy, do you know before Daddy took out the YOUTUBE from my iPad, I saw the Barbie Murder Home and it has everything inside.
My head was spinning. Did she stumble across a sinister version of Barbie? Damn, thank God I got the hubs to cancel out YOUTUBE in our home.
T1: She means Barbie MOBILE home, Mom….
It’s dangerous having mispronunciations from T2. She calls her Bahasa teacher Puan Juliana….Prawn Juneya, and her Science teacher, Mrs Chandra….Mrs Sangria. T1 says Prawn Juneya’s daughters must surely be called Shrimp and Krill respectively.
In amusement of T2 calling her Science Teacher Mrs Sangria, I repeatedly asked her who her Science teacher was just to hear her pronounce it over and over again. It is hilarious but then she suddenly states, “My Best Science teacher is Mommy!”
Just for the record, I never teach her any science per se but she relates to me telling her certain stories relating back to her science class such as when I ask her during her shower how she can keep herself healthy.
T1: Who?
T2: Mommy! Mommy is my best Science Teacher.
T1: Mommy doesn’t know Science.
*Mommy starts frowning*
T2: Of course she does! She’s my best Science teacher.
*Mommy wonders if Tia is trying to bring forward the early receipt of her birthday present for August*
T1: Mommy doesn’t know Science but oh, ya….anyone can be a Science teacher at Reception level so I guess she could be your Science Teacher….
Mommy: Excuse me? You might be interested to know that I studied Science at COLLEGE level, Biology, Physics and Chemistry to be exact!!
T1: Oh, you did? You mean you know Science? I thought only Daddy knew Science.
*WTF*
And just to test me, T1 then said she was learning ‘Forces’ for Science at school and do I know it?
Mommy: Oh, so you know what F=ma is?
T1: *confused look* Oh, noooo….we don’t do formulas for Science. We only do formulas for Math.
Mommy – 1 : T1 – 0
