Little Gems #2 : A Little = 1%

I've always thought that riches was relative and today no. 3 just confirmed it. No. 4 was showing me a page from Ikea's latest catalogue which had a double decker bed priced at RM695.

No. 4 : Mummy, buy this for me.
No. 3 : We got no money. We're 99% poor and 1% rich.
I : Who told you that?
No. 3 : I asked daddy if we're rich. He said a little.
I : So a little is 1% is it?
No. 3 : Yeah-lah (his tone implied Duh?)

Lydia, I wrote some in my blog - sometime ago. Here's another one:
Daddy (its always daddy): When you die, God will ask you questions about what you did on earth.
Little H: How does he do that? Does he splash water all over your face to wake you up?

Nice Blog. Keep it simple like this, please…. without those flashy gadgets and advertisements.

Max, Sure I kept your email. Must treasure the nice things in life. 'Flashy gadgets and advertisements', err.. what are those?

Nadia, Good for you! My older kids sometimes tape up the younger kids' impromptu singing on the handphone, very cuuute. I think they erase already. Isn't it nice if children can remain young forever? Less problems right?

Vagus_n : Thank you, thank you. But don't let them know. Afterwards, their head swell.
