He puts on his sweetest smile and says: "and I love mama."
"Mama, this is your handbag, and this (pointing at the line next to the circle) is the zip." - Aiden
Aiden and I are riding the metro. The wheels stress along a turn and make a loud screeching sound.
Me: "what a noisy train.'
Aiden nods knowingly and shouts over the ruckus: "THAT'S BECAUSE OF THE ENGINE, PAPA"
After we alight, we watch the train leave, until the rear of the train disappears out of sight.
Aiden: "That's the train's bum bum."
Elsa:"mama, one nine nine is one hundred and ninety nine. Did you know that?"
Ketelyn: "Yes, I knew that."
Elsa: "did papa teach you that?"
After she hears us laughing she's compelled to explain her reasoning: "Papa also taught you how to swim."
We're on the bus. Aiden asks me to read a poster. "the poster says don't cry, don't scream and don't shout. Especially to a boy called Aiden."
Aiden: "and also to Elsa!"
Pohpoh (de moeder van Katelyn) in Singapore wordt 80 jaar. Groot feest natuurlijk.
In the middle of dinner Aiden proclaims "Oma is my best friend."
Hi oma, the following message was typed by Elsa:
dear Oma

It's 7pm. The neighbours are going out, just as we come home.
Elsa addresses them directly: "what are you guys doing out so late?"
I ask Aiden, "who is your best friend in school?"
Aiden thinks a while and declares: "Papa is my best friend!"
I'm beaming with pride.
Aiden thinks a little longer and says, "Hmmm. Actually, mama is my best friend."
Someone got a new helmet today.
