Recent Conversations That I had with my Kids

1) Tasya

Tasya: Mama, umur Mama berapa?
Me: (wow, what a very sensitive issue). Kenapa, Tasya tanya?
Tasya: Iyalah(her fav. phrase.) Tasya nak cakap kat Rozita, Mama umur berapa. Mama 18 tahun kan?
Me:( Hhe!Heh!Heh!-laughing in my head). Betulalah tu.
Tasya: Mama kawin umur berapa?
Me: Kenapa?
Tasya: Kalau umur 11 tahun boleh kawin tak?( to her 11 years old seem old enough to get marry)
Me: Mana boleh, 11 tahun tu kecik lagi, tau tak?( I then gave her an example of someone who is 11 years old. Someone that she knows). 11 tahun tu baru macam Pak Uda tau.
Tasya: Pak Uda 11 tahun?? Bila boleh kawin Mama?
Me: Bila Tasya dah kerja, dah ada banyak duit. Baru boleh kawin.( I did not tell her about true love because it's all bullshit).
Tasya: Nanti bila Tasya dah kerja, Tasya nak kawinlah Mama.
Me: OK.

2) Azrai

Me: Abang, abang nie handsome tak?
Azrai: Handsome.( Haiya, my son is so vain lah)
Me: Sapa lagi handsome, Abang ke Mawi?
Azrai: Abang lah.
Me: Abang, abang nie rajin tak?
Azrai: Rajin, tak macam Kakak.
Me: Abang, nanti Abang dah besar nak beli kereta apa?
Azrai: Ahh, Volvo Car, Mercedez Benz, Po Pei(Porsche)
Me: Mama boleh naik tak kereta Abang?
Azrai: Tak boleh
Me: Kenapa tak boleh
Azrai: Mama duduk belakang jea, Abang bawa car.
Me: OK, Mama duduk belakang jea.
Azrai: OK.

I love having a chit chat with my kids, sometimes the answer that they gave you can knock you off your feet. Sometimes I wonder how can they become so smart, who teach them all these things? Certainly not me or probably it was me, may be they listen to what I said and what I did in front of them. Subconciously on my part I did teach them a thing or two.
