What my child says/does that touches me...

Recently, I am disheartened over my job and am contemplating quitting it to do something else, but the 'something else' may not bring in money yet. I asked my 10-yr-old what she thought about it and she said,\"I'd rather you do something you like.\"

Great advice for all of us.
What a wise young girl :love:

My son cried when I told him he and his sis would have their own families one day and we oldies can't stay with them forever... he was into the \"I don't want to get married\" discussion and was sad to realise that what he has now might change in future. He says he wants to live with me forever. aiyoh... :love:

Hi duriz, autumnbronze and those who have responded to my thread,


Glad that this topic has generated a lot of sharings. Keep them coming!

In years to come or whenever we are feeling down, we can always refer back to these sharings and feel thankful for our little ones. :love:

She's a very loving and considerate girl. :love:

A conversation between myself and ds.


Me: (Raining hugs and kisses on him) I better kiss and smell you while I can. Once you grow up to become a man, I will not be able to do this anymore.

DS: Why not? Don’t tell me you would not want me to kiss and hug when you grow old?

Me: You sure you will still hug and kiss me when my hair turns all white and my skin all wrinkly?

DS: (He’s speechless at how thoughtless my words can be) and started sobbing. How could you say those things when you know how much I love you mummy.

Indeed, she is a very loving, selfless and sensible girl. My friend's child worried about her tuition fees when her mom lost her job. :roll:

Awww....he deserves more kisses and hugs.

Mine will never fail to tell me, \"I Love you!\" every night before she sleeps. Hugs and kisses all the time. Once, she asked me, \"Mommy, do you know why I love you?\" I shrugged my shoulders and she replied, \"For nothing, I just love you, even when I am mad at you, I love you!\" :love:

insider:

Think my most recent one is from my 16 years old son when he said to me sincerely,


\"When you are around (meaning in town), all problems are not problems.\"

It reflects a lot of his trust in me...(and I hope he also can have this mentality when facing life in whatever kind of situations).

Insider, I was waiting to see something from you. Finally! And more from parents of teenages

When they grow up, its a totally different show of love.

Thanks all. He's really cute but of course there's mood swing too.


Another thing he does that touches my heart.

It was late about 11 pm and I was settling down to clear up the dry laundry and put them away into respective cabinet. He was about to sleep & seeing me with a pile of clothing, he climbed out of bed and started to help me out. Seeing the mountain of clothing, he decided that the situation won't do. He went out of the room & viola came dh & dd. He told them to pick their own clothing & hang it themselves. Sweet right? :love:
