Conversations with Victoria

Yesterday I found a sticker on my pants. Who else, but Victoria put it there without my knowledge. She loves stickers, all kinds of stickers, just like any other little girls. And sometimes we reward her with sheets of stickers, or just buy for her for fun. She'd happily peel them off, and have placed them at many places, sometimes awkward, sometimes prominent... for example, on Popo's washing machine, on the walls (low heights), on the car windows, on the cupboard door beneath the staircase, and this...

... on my trousers, which I didn't even know until I happen to just "saw" it on my way out to Giant yesterday.


I think that's my reward for "good behaviour" hehe :)

Here are two snippets of conversation with Victoria:

Conversation 1
I placed the Hello Kitty sticker on the car steering wheel. Hubby drove the car last night and saw it. He made a joke that he'd have to hide the sticker if his boss sits in his car. And I added that Daddy's boss will think he's girlish.

A short while later, she said, "Daddy! You must cover the sticker! If not, your boss will think you are a girl!"

Conversation 2
During dinner time today, I had to keep telling Victoria to sit down and eat her food. Of course there are good days where she'd finish her food obediently with little running around, and there are... challenging days where she'd be all over the place, and take 10 minutes just to chew and swallow a spoonful. Today was one of those. So, after repeated reminders, you bet I'm not a very happy mummy.

I told her off sternly that if she doesn't make an effort to sit down and finish her food, Mr Rotan is coming out. So that got her to sit down. (She's not scared though).

Shortly later, as I was clearing up some plates, she asked me if I was angry at her. I said, "No, why?"

Victoria replied, "Then why is your face so black?"

Haha. I burst out half laughing, half giggling.

And this little girl said this to me, "You look really cute when you laugh."

Hhhmm... thanks. : )
