S1 had his classmate (plus his two siblings) over for play yesterday (Thursday)... They played PS2, some board games, swam etc. They stayed over lunch, so I asked their mom what they preferred - noodles or fried rice. And she said noodles. So, come lunch time, I served them fried noodles. Only S1's classmate ate, and had a second helping. His older sis and younger brother "beh hiow ciak" and didn't eat wor. Anyway, after lunch, I asked "Are you guys allowed ice-cream" and the answer came back as an "Of course". So, I gave them ice-cream with all the toppings... chocolate sauce, whipped cream, sprinkles..the works. Then after they've cleaned up their ice-cream bowls...
T (S1's classmate) : BTW, you DON'T have to tell our moms that we had ice-cream.
Me: What do you mean? Of course I have to tell your mom that you had ice-cream.
T: No. You don't. You can just waaassh the evidence away!
Me: You are NOT allowed ice-cream?
S (T's Sis): Oh! We are allowed! Like once every few months.
L( T's bro): Yeah. Once a lifetime!
So...you see, have been duped ! Eat first then face consequences later! These 3 angmoh kids are quite well-behaved. Their mom are more strict with them than I am with my kids. Sometimes feel that I am such a lousy mom lah...
