Chinese New Year round the corner.
Last Chinese New Year, I spent it doing my confinement after YC's birth on the eve of CNY eve.
This CNY, YC's gonna spam pineapple tarts and drink Fanta Orange.
Like real.
But this little lady is indeed a little too mature for her age, preferring rice to porridge and using Megabloks to hit her older sister's head. Fine, she learnt that from her sister but still not very innocent please.
As for lil YJ, she's experiencing her terrible two right now, I assume.
Sometimes she acknowledges she's being naughty and tells me stuff like, "I don't want. I'm naughty."
Ok babe.
That's very cool attitude but look, I'm your mum. When I tell you not to dash ahead of me, you jolly well stay right beside me.
People have told me I'm being too harsh when I tell her things like she'll DIE if she gets BANGED DOWN BY A CAR.
But hello, isn't that the truth?
So should I have said, "You'll receive a multiple choice question of whether to go to heaven or earth or have nowhere to go as a wondering ghost if a car comes along and.. erm, kisses you?"
Sorry, me no have time for fancy talk.
In her face, LISTEN TO ME OR DIE.
Don't judge ok, usually I'm pretty nice to her as long as it doesn't involve danger or her treating me like her dog.
Nowadays she just likes to order me around. I WANT MILK this minute and right next, I DON'T WANT MILK, followed by throwing the bottle on the floor.
Like, am I supposed to condone such behaviour?
Sorry babe, your mum is me so your life is gonna suck pretty big time if you continue to carry yourself this way.
Sometimes I feel she might have inherited my rebellious gene. My mum had a pretty tough time disciplining me when I was young too. But I still loved my family, because I guess ultimately we all understand who cares for us, even in a hard way.
Two days back, Edward and I went to Adventure Cove waterpark and had a whale of a time.
So thankful for him planning the day for us.
It was super fun. No kids, just us. No stress of having to watch over vulnerable tiny human beings.
Parents do need such times to recharge.
Thank you Lao Gong!
So yeah, here's an early Happy Chinese New Year to whoever's still reading. Example, myself.
Sometimes self-talking clears the head and the heart. Everyone should do it once in a while.
Ok bye!
