            Yes. Time flies. So does money... the more you earn, the faster both flies. Sigh.

              Think I have been speaking like that to kiddos for as long as they can remember they know what I am referring to when I use 'we'.

              I must remember to try 'you'. Let me test it out. And see what kind of response I get from them.

                3) are you expecting the cane


                :rotflmao:

                I can't possibly say 'are we expecting the cane?' :rotflmao:
                With the kids, there is absolutely no need to be so tactful...if there is a need to use YOU, just use it.

                They are the ones who have to sit for exams.
                Homework belongs to them.
                Caning is for them too.

                I always ask them, 'do you want dinner?' Bcos I am hungry.

                  Few days ago I came across this:


                  A man: You smell good today.

                  The woman: :rant: I smelled bad all this while? Only today I smelled nice :spank:

                  :rotflmao:

                  How should we give a compliment when someone smelled nice???

                  YOU smell exceptionally good today.

                  :yikes: PERVERT! Why are you sniffing at me?!?!? :siam:

                  Unless the man is the hubby or boyfren. Then ok.

                    \"Mmmm... Something is different with you today.... Mmm, did you changed your perfume/shampoo/body cream... ?......
                    :imanangel:
