    • My Turn… My Turn…

      Every time Tim and Emily got back from the babysitter, Tim will help mummy to take the dirty laundry up to the laundry basket. Yeap, my babysitter no longer wants to wash their laundry. It is alright because we have a thing call washing machine.

      However Emily seeing his brother does that, she wants to help. She does that all the time, whenever she sees the brother do something, she wants to fight over it. I asked Tim to let her do take the dirty laundry up. Tim was not happy but mummy told him that he can help mummy do other things.

      After Emily does it a few times, she stopped. I saw the dirty laundry on the floor.

      Mummy: Emily, how come the laundry is on the floor? Please can you take it up to the basket?

      Emily: It is kor kor’s turn. I did it already just now yesterday.

      Mummy: You said you wanted to do it.

      Emily: It is kor kor’s turn. *she changed subject*

      Now it ends up no one doing it. First they fight for it, later end up no one does it. Sounds familiar?

      Mom2Ashley: Sorry my cheap server a bit siao siao one.

      She used to wash my children laundry but lately she didn’t. I guess I didn’t pay her enough kuah.

    8. It’s always like dat. Siblings will always ‘fight’ over toys or ‘chores’. On seeing kor-kor’s not interested with ‘fighting’ over the chore with her, Emily got bored. If kor kor gets to the laundry ‘job’ again, I guess Emily will want to do the ‘job’ again. Hahaha. Kids.

    9. Yes, kids fight just for the fun of fighting.

    10. They didn’t say: “Mummy, it’s your turn.” ?
