Funniest Home Moments

Retelling an incident involving the kids always seems more rewarding than the actual incident.

During dinner this evening, I started telling hubby about how Beth had once again wiggled out of bath time, despite promising to take her bath after watching ABC Kids.

"Do you know what your daughter did?" I casually said as we started on the first of 2 Domino's pizzas. "She slathered herself with QV Cream so that I wouldn't be able to make her bathe!"

I started laughing even before I could finish, overcome by the ridiculousness of it all. CA burst out laughing.

And the culprit looked very pleased with herself.

Same occasion.

We have a friend who is bringing back a violin for Beth from my BIL and SIL in Sg. CA and I have been teaching Beth that she is supposed to say Thank You to this friend as well as to Aunty Hin Ping and Uncle Cheng Wah when she gets the violin, and that her usual "I'm shy" excuse will not be accepted.

"If you say you're shy, I'll just take your violin and give it to another child who's less shy," I said, feeling very pleased with myself for my clever thinking.

"I will follow you wherever you go," came the immediate rejoinder.

"Is that a threat?" I demanded, even as CA and I started laughing.

"....And see where you put the violin," finished Beth.
