      Over brunch last weekend... we played our own game of spellcast.


      The girls had a blast spelling tricky words. I even had hubs mumbling
      his spelling words... perseverance... the psy-words... psychiatric...
      psychologist... psychic... and also ala French words which DD2 said
      weren't exactly English but fun to try out. The girls tried from the
      words champagne... to lingerie... to homonyms. The match point
      came down to spelling the word vertebrae... and it was DD2's
      turn... and boy did she really want to win it. :laugh: She went...

      DD2 : v...e...r...t...e...r...b...r...a...y

      Me : Tet!! :please: Try again please.

      DD2 : v...e...r...t...e...r...b...r...a...i

      Me : Tet!! :please: Na-ah.. not that either..

      DD2 : With an \"aye\" at the back?

      Me : Sorry, nope..

      Me : Give up?

      DD2 : Na-ah.. :please:

      Me : Oh well, i have to continue with my chores so i'm gonna give the
      answer away, ok? It's v...e...r...t...e...b...r...a...e.

      DD2 : Ooh... then you should have broken it down like this, so i will
      surely get it..

      Me : Like how?

      DD2 : /ver/... /te/... \"BRA\"... eeeee

      DD2 : Get it? Ver-te-BRAAA!!! Eeeeekh! (Holding up an imaginary bra)

      Us : :whut:

      Us : :rotflmao:

              Going thru my blog, found an entry when I explained to son what a flea market is. He replied, when you buy from a flea market, you'd buy 1 get 1 flea.

              hahaha... this one is good!

                Another way of expressing "I love you"


                DS:" Mum, I am so happy that papa marries you. If papa marries another woman, then I wouldn’t have you as my mother (in the fist place) and I will so miss you …"

                  My 7 yr old was setting the table for dinner and he brought out a plate with very little rice for grandma...



                  Me: Why so little rice for grandma?
                  DS: She should not eat too much then she will have no strength to scold me!
                  Me: :faint:


                  Grandma always tell DS to eat more so he will have 'strength' to do what he wants.....
