What a 3-year-old girl would say...

It has been one whole month... and I had been so busy that I didn't update my blog ! Gomenasai!
It's last day of Term 3...will be going to school for a few hours later...so I thought I could come here and leave a note...

Nowadays, I always like to 'chit-chat' with Enen...
It always seems so funny to hear what she answers... :P

Roy was away in Bangkok few days ago... that night, there were only the 2 kids and myself. After all of us had taken our baths... we sat down on the mattress...hang around till it's time for them to sleep.

En took a comb and came over...she asked if she could comb my hair.
Fearing that she would be 'rough' (kids don't know how to control ma...), I said, "ok... but you got to be gentle..." Happily, she started her 'hair-styling' practice.

As I speak to her in Mandarin... I would try to type in Chinese our actual conversation... :P (*sweat*)

妈咪：你很大力。。。
恩：要大力才好。（once, she said I tied her hair too tight...but I told her...must be a bit tight...then it will look neat and nice...so I guess that's why she thought '大力才好）

妈咪：你梳好了吗？
恩：还没有　（过了一回）
　　妈咪，我跟你梳，就美美了。
　　然后，你睡觉，就乱了。
（she even emphasized that LUAN le, with exaggerated tone and action)

妈咪：恩，你很忙啊？
恩：嗯，我很忙。

妈咪：你在忙什么？
恩：我在忙你的头发。。。
－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－
妈咪：今天在学校有没有乖乖？
恩：有。
妈咪：你说要给朋友糖糖，有没有给？
恩：没有
妈咪：为什么？
恩：我在忙Ａｒｉｅｌ不要哭　（ｓｈｅ　ｍｅａｎｔ．．ｓｈｅ　ｗａｓ　ｂｕｓｙ　ｔｅｌｌｉｎｇ　Ａｒｉｅｌ　ｎｏｔ　ｔｏ　ｃｒｙ）
妈咪：为什么Ａｒｉｅｌ哭？
恩："Hor Yi" (所以）玲欣打她 (she meant 'because'...but she can't say as Suo Yi.. anyway wrong usage...)
----------------------------------------------------------------------------

妈咪：谁要喝nen nen?（ｍｉｌｋ）
爸爸：我！　(daddy likes to tease her... because she really likes milk)
恩：不是！不是！你是大人了，大人没有喝ｎｅｎ　ｎｅｎ的。只有小人可以喝的。
（mummy and daddy couldn't stop laughing... she meant XIAO HAI...but dunno why she said XIAO REN that night)

Once, I just bathed Ryan and put him on the bed to dry and dress him. En was beside us.

恩：妈咪，弟弟有尾巴ｈｏｒ．．．　
(mummy nearly fainted... if you could guess what she was refering to as the 'tail' ...)
