Funny Conversations With My Sons Over Lunch

It's always funny talking to kids. Ok, fine. It can sometimes be frustrating when they're being bratty and they don't listen, too. 😅 But uuuusually, it's funny.

This is what I remember just from lunch today. 

-----------------------

CONVERSATION #1

-----------------------

We're having lunch with Por Por & Kung Kung at Gurney Paragon's food court. The food arrives and JJ looks at a sunny side up egg at the food court quizzically.

JJ: Why is the egg melting? 

-----------------------

CONVERSATION #2

-----------------------

While we're still at the food court, JZ notices that I'm not eating and that I'm just feeding them. (I'm fasting from 9am-6pm for 40 days with NECF.)

JZ: *kindly* You can have the soup, Mommy. I give you the soup.

Pam Song: I can’t have it, JZ. You have it. 

JZ: Why? Because you’re starving?

Pam Song: 😅😅😅 Fasting, JZ. Fasting.

-----------------------

CONVERSATION #3

-----------------------

We then talk about maybe going to the Upside Down Museum after lunch. We've never been so it could be a fun experience, especially if we go with Kung Kung who's good with pictures. (Then Mommy can be in the pictures, too! 😎)

JZ: Everything is upside down??? Then how to wee wee????

😱😱😱

Pam Song & Por Por: 🤔 Haha. Good question! 😅

-----------------------

CONVERSATION #4

-----------------------

While telling melsong about some fruits Ethan ate earlier...

JJ: *interrupts excitedly* Mommy mommy mommy! There’s an animal called rambutan, you know? One animal.

Pam Song: ??? A fruit, you mean.

 JJ: *very insistent* No! It’s not! Animal! It is called a rambutan!!

Pam Song: ??? 🤨 Rambutan?? No lah. There’s no such animal, JJ. 🤔

 JJ: *getting frustrated with me* There issssssss...!!

 Pam Song: *realisation dawns* Oh!!! 😯 Not a rambutan la, JJ. ORANGUTAN!!!! 😂😂😂

Celebration In Order!!!

Before I begin, let me first say that Caden is currently 5y6mo and Ethan is 3y8mo. That's 5 years and 6 months since The Husband and I have had a night in bed without mini-hims snuggled up in bed with us. 😑😒😓


Well, I'm happy to announce and proud to say that for the FIRST time ever, in the history of parenting in this household, that spans over half a decade...

THE KIDS SLEPT TOGETHER

IN THEIR OWN BED (in our room 🙄)

THE WHOLE NIGHT THROUGH,

RIGHT UP TILL I WOKE THEM

UP FOR SCHOOL IN THE MORNING!

Woohoo! #milestoneachieved #achievementunlocked
At long last, there's light at the end of the tunnel! 🎉🎉🎉

Macam Macam Pun Ada

JJ ruins JZ's colouring (again).

JZ throws a fit and growls in frustration: DIDI! WHY DID YOU DO THAT??

And JJ answers in full dramatic flair; his hands in the air: I DON’T KNOW!! The power inside me is making me do it!! 

 😳😅😂

#macammacam la ini munya budak.

Sometimes really I wonder how he comes up with these excuses. Sometimes I wonder if he believes them, too. Haha. Most of the time, it amazes me. And most of all, I pity JZ for having to put up with it. Hahaha. 😅😂 #brothersforlife

Who's The Boss???

The kids fight about who gets to scooter in the mall and who gets to sit in the stroller. (They all want to scooter. 😒) I have enough of it and throw this out...


Pam Song: JJ gets to scooter today cos I promised him since yesterday! And JZ, you’re always complaining that you never get to sit in the stroller right?? So today you sit! #momjobdone *pats self on back* #smugface


JJ agrees cos he gets his way but JZ kicks up a fuss. And each time he does so, JJ goes ballistic all over again. Like, every. single. time. Argh!!! Out of frustration, I bark at JJ:


Pam Song: Didn’t I already tell you the plan??? Who’s the boss??? Mommy or Koko??

Without skipping a beat, JJ shouts back: ME!

😳😳😳

JJ: 1 – Pam Song: 0

Uh... Okay. I wasn't expecting that. 😅😅😅

Small one really thinks he’s all that, huh. LOL. 😂

Remembering Love At Bedtime

At bedtime, JJ looks to me with sleepy eyes and says in a soft, quiet voice: Mommy? A long, long time ago, when you were old, you wore glasses. And your hair was very, very long. And you pau pau me and I was a baby. You remember?

Pam Song: 😚 Yes, I remember. ❤️ I will always remember. =')

Just me and my forever baby.

My baby, JJ... 

Mommy loves how you somehow always manage to remember everything. Right down to the very last detail – what was worn, what was said, what was happening, what music was playing, and even what smell was in the air. It gives the assurance that even someday when I'm gone, you'll still remember the person that I was and the relationship that we shared as mother and son. I love you, Baby. 4,120,927 times more than you remember that I do.

XOXO, 

Mommy

JJ Has A Way With Words

Tonight I endured yet another impossible bedtime with JJ after he somehow sneaked in a nap in the afternoon. Sigh. Should definitely start cutting that nap out for my sanity's sake la! Beh tahan liao.


Aaaannd he's still got this rotten habit of holding the boob to fall asleep, which irritates me no end cos like, HEY! Those are MINE now! Give 'em back! Your time with them are OVER, BRUH! 😡

But of course, JJ being JJ a.k.a Mr YOLO a.k.a Mr Bo Chun a.k.a Mr Water-Off-A-Duck's-Back – he remains unfazed and pays little to no heed to my nightly warnings and grumblings. So tonight, I lost it.

Pam Song: *in super fierce, extra loud, booming boss-mom voice* I SAID, NO TOUCHING THE NEN NEN!!! 😡😡😡

JJ: ☹️ *pouty face* I’m not! *pause* I’m just touching your... *pause* ...heart. *pause* 😏

🤦🏻‍♀️

I surrender la. I surrender.

Heartbreakingly Replaceable

Bedtime conversations with the kids are usually funny and/or sweet. But tonight... Sigh. Tonight totally crashed and burned for me. Why? Well, here's why:

JJ: *out of the blue and matter of fact-ly* Mommy, I think when you die, another mommy will come.

Pam: 😳😐😢💔

Goodnight. Imma go cry myself to sleep now. 😭 

Thundercloud Love

JJ has a thing for stickers.

As in, he likes to stick them everywhere and on everyone. I think it's a real waste of stickers and honestly, I'm not too fond of this habit of his. I mean, back in my day, stickers were precious! So expensive and so difficult to come by! Where got simply just stick everywhere wan?? But this generation of kids ah... tsk tsk tsk. Sticker macam no need money liddat. Just stick, stick, stick everywhere. So, this happened today...


Pam Song: JJ, why did you put a thundercloud on my iPad??

JJ: *big innocent eyes* Because I love you.

 😳 AWWWW... Okay.

The thundercloud stays. ⛈

Stick la, stick. 🤗
