        DS: Mummy, what is that you are eating?
        Me: Murtabak.
        DS: Can I taste a bit of your \"water bug\"?
        Me: :lol: It's murtabak not \"water bug\"!

          Trying to encourage my boy to work towards being his own boss when he grows up....


          Me : If you are the boss, you can be late for work, because no one will dare to scold you. If you are not the boss, you cannot be late for work.
          Ds : If I am the boss, I cannot be late for work too...
          Me : Why?
          Ds : Because the others will fool around if I am not around.

          πŸ˜‰ (i have a hunch that he got this idea based on how they behave when the teachers are not in class... πŸ˜‰ )

            He must be taking his monitor job very seriously. Or maybe his classmates must be rather laidback.

            Ok back to topic

            Recently, I started wearing one of my racerback tees with low-waist, hipster jeans again after a long while since I've added some flesh in the middle. :roll: DD was walking behind me and suddenly...
            DD: Why are you wearing like that?
            Me: What do you mean?
            DD: Why are you wearing like that? You want to be sexy ar?
            Me: Huh? Sexy? :?
            DD: (pointing to my exposed midriff) Here can see and there also can see.
            Me: I'm just fat lah. That's why cannot cover anymore mah. :oops:
            DD: (takes another look) When you wear this, you don't look fat what.
            Me: *speechless* (thinking Okaaaay....) πŸ˜“

            Whenever I ask DH whether wearing clothing article XYZ makes me look fat, and he replies, \"No lah, you looked worse last time.\", I am skeptical. 😐 But when DD says it, I immediately believe her. πŸ’‹

              :lol: Be careful... she might report you to teacher for wearing like that. As for what your DH said, we men have learnt a long time ago how to answer questions like that. πŸ˜“

                Talking about clothing, dd will always remind me before parents teacher meeting. \"Mummy, please remember to wear decently. \" :roll: As if what I wore is indecent.

                  Wah lau!
                  Your child so cute!
                  I was like so laughing out loud at that remark!
                  Kids nowadays, huh...

                  \"Tie your hair up and will look like a teenager\"
                  is like the killer of all remarks, man!!!

                  Well, suppose if they start this young...
                  You should at least be assured that in future,
                  their choice of a better half will be a good decent one.
                  :lol:

                    EN,
                    my boy is also particular that i dress appropriately even when fetching him from school. he said that actually it's up to me if i choose to dress in 'home clothes', but if other people laugh at my dressing, it's my problem. 😐

                        Here's another one....

                        As i only have ❀ months of driving experience (did not drive daily for that period of time too), i'll usually park the car a distance away from the school and walk my boy to school as I am not mentally prepared to handle the traffic congestion near the school gate.

                        Me : You have to give me some time...you still have 6 years, so I will drop you off at the (very congested) school's car porch one day, ok?

                        Ds : Ok. But if you can't do that in 6 years time, I don't think I'll ever dare to sit in your car again....

                        :roll:
