      You know how children are, they love to eat sweets, choc, candy, chips, ice-cream and junk food. Usually I will limit my children taking all junk by telling them, if you have too much, it can cause you to cough. They will listen to me and stop eating, or reserved it for later days.

      Last week, Emily was not in a good mood because she wanted to play at the playground after church. However it was lunch time and we had to go for lunch. At the lunch table, we ordered chicken rice for both Tim and Emily.

      Emily: Mummy, I cannot take rice.
      Mummy: Why?
      Emily: It will make me cough cough, see. *pretend to cough*
      Mummy: Don’t be silly, rice will not make you cough
      Emily: *pretend to cough*, got ah.

      However, I did manage to feed her ½ plate of rice and chicken. When she is not in the mood, she will think of cheeky ways to make things difficult.
