And so I ask my son!
May 20, 2022
Sometimes a child's outlook is different from ours. They observe things differently and their curiosity over things and the likes are just not what we expected.
I just arrived home from very tiring hours on the bus. Why is it that even though we're just sitting or sometimes sleeping on the bus but when we arrive at our destination we feel extreme tiredness that we can't even explain? I remember that I don't know why people who travel had jetlag not until I experienced it myself.
So as I was looking at my son having the time of his life eating dinner I was asking him questions like, "How's school? Did you learn something new? Did you play with your classmates? Who picked you up at school?" Things like that, he answers them excitedly while munching his fried chicken, cutieeeee...
After preparing for bed I begin asking him random questions and out of the many (I guess more than 10) since I can't think of something to write so I just go with my son's preferences and likes.
And I was really amused at him answering the questions for he always has his segway on things I'm asking.
(Our convo is in Cebuano but I just translate it directly)
Favorite food
Him: Ma, when it comes to favorite food I have many so don't let me choose okay
Me: (keep on insisting) I mean yes you have a lot of favorites but when Mama is out and would want to buy you food what comes first to your mind?
Him: ----- Fried Chicken
Junkfood
Him: Piattos
Me: Hey, that's Mama's
Him: But I like what you usually eat though
Me: No, picked what you like now mine
Him: I prefer Jelly and Rin-Bee and also chocolate (that's a lot though)
What do you most like to watch?
Him: PJ Mask, Power Ranges, and Paw Patrol but with movies, I go with Moana, Frozen, and Bruno(He meant Encanto where Bruno was part of the cast)
Favorite Time of the day
Playtime and Bedtime with you.
Favorite Moment you surely will remember forever(the longest answer)
When Baby Alex was finally home. When I see those pinkish skin and those little .hands. I really like her to be my sister. Did you see Alex when she first opened her eyes at us, Ma the feather of my skin stands up and I want to touch her but Mamay said we're not allowed to do so as baby Alex's skin at that time was very delicate.
Mama Jhe2(my sister) then ask me if I want Alex to be my baby sister and then I immediately said yes but they all just laugh at me, you're working when they arrived home. And then she was sleeping beside Mama Jhe2 and when she cried all of us came to her and watch her cry while Mama Jhe2 cuddles her. Oh, she's cute. I want to give all the clothes that no longer fit me to her even though I'm a boy. I can't wait for her to call me "Kuya" the moment she'll learns how to talk.
The last was also the last question I asked him before he lie down beside me and while I was writing this article of mine.
I am actually pressured that he really wants to have a little sister now. aigooooo
Anyways, thank you for reading such a short and nonsensical article. My brain cells are not working anymore for it was drained during the ride back home.
Hala the way he talk parang naghahanap na nga po sya ng kapatid mommykim hahhaha. Parang gusto nya na po ma-experience na magkaroon ng sariling sibling.
