Conversation with Shern @ 4 yr 7 mths

It makes me smile when I talk to Shern sometimes. So I knew I needed to write them down somewhere to preserve those precious memories.....

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Shern: Mummy, blue and yellow makes green.
Me: Wow, that's right. Who taught you this?
Shern: Because when I shi-shi into the toilet bowl (we use the Tru Blu toilet bowl cleaner sometimes), the water sometimes turn into green colour. So I know blue and yellow makes green!
Me: "_"

(Who would have thought that he learns his colour palette from the toilet bowl! lol )

Shern: When I am big, I want to be a mummy.
Me: Hey, you cannot be a mummy because you are not a girl. But don't worry, you will be a daddy when you are big.
Shern: I don't want to be daddy. I want to be mummy so that everybody listens to me!

(lol. coz I am like the queen of the hse. Even hubby listens to me. So I guessed Shern figured out about the meaning of 'authority'!)

While in the car the other day,
Shern: I don't want to grow up.
Me: Why?
Shern: Because then I will have 'chiu-chiu' (beard/moustache) like daddy (hubby has some stubble when he doesn't shave for a few days), and I don't like it.
Me: You can always shave them off clean.
Shern: No, I don't like that, I think I want to be a girl when I grow up.
Me: I don't think you can be a girl when you grow up.
Shern: Can, I will just pray to God to make me a girl next time. Teacher says God is magical you know!
