Little Miss: MM-IIILLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL –
Rockstar: Mum.
Me: I know.
Little Miss: –LLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL-
Rockstar: Mum.
Me: I know.
Little Miss: –LLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL-
Rockstar: Mum.
Me: I. Know.
Little Miss: -LK.
Rockstar: Mum. I think she wants milk.
Me: Really. And where would you get such a crazy idea?
Rockstar: Hee.

Little Miss has a habit of sampling greens from my bowl of hurriedly-scooped dinner most nights I’m scurrying about to bathe and settle her.
Little Miss: Eat.
Me: Yes darling, just a moment I’m getting you some veggies. (If there’s a lot of sauce I wash the greens first – not because I’m freaky about sauces, but because it doesn’t take much for her to empty the entire contents of her stomach. One of the causes appears to be when the food is too tasty. We’ve asked the pediatrician about it several times, it’s apparently nothing more than shallow stomach and very sensitive gag reflex but wow it’s a real nuisance when she does it on your bed or in nice restaurants…)
Little Miss: Eat.
Me: There you go.
Little Miss: <happily> Eat. Tree.
Me: What?? What did you call my – very yummy veggies?
Little Miss: <happily eating> Eat tree!
<pause>
Me: Ok. So. When we go out to the park and you see green leaves, they are not. Yummy. NOT. Yummy. Do NOT eat the leaves from the trees in the park.
Some pics of the kids I forgot to put up this season:
Rockstar is wearing a several years-old Zara Kids fedora that Little Miss has had her eye on for awhile (she knows she’s going to inherit it when he outgrows it and that’s going to be soon) and a velvet brocade jacket from Stanley Market. We were going for a vaguely Wong Fei Hong-era look but ended up running for the bus as usual (and after that I forgot about taking a pic completely with Authentic Wong Fei Hong Poses).
Speaking of whom……..
I call this gem her “Lai See Face” because she has learnt the fine art of complimenting, which Rockstar is still uh, working on 😀 I was trying on some of my old outfits from my former work life recently, and she decided I needed a “Woww..” Then when we gave her Lai See it was “Oo! <politely impressed face>” Just so….
Nice outfit for CNY school dress up. Does Rockstar watch Wong Fei Hung movies?
I like Miss Rockstar’s lai see face. Ooooooo, nice dress mummy. Ooooooo, let’s see how much money is in this lai see. Does she make this face everytime she gets a lai see?
He rarely watches any movie-length thing, he often searches Youtube for movie clips or gaming clips instead… But he certainly has watched Wong Fei Hong… various Jet Li and Donny Yen…..
She didn’t do that every single time but when in a good mood doesn’t mind obliging…
