Lunch out with 弟弟

Ling has been waiting quite a while for this chance to have a lunch with *弟弟... and finally came the chance today... Ling has been looking forward to this day she took leave about 1month ago!!

Ling went to pick up 弟弟 from school, and after making the necessary preparations:
bathed. checked.
sh sh. checked.

弟弟 insisted that he wanted to bring his packet of tissue with Monkey packaging, because Ah Ma promised him that he could bring it along.. Ok. No prob.

Monkey tissue. checked.


Ah Ma wanted to bring 弟弟 water bottle. But 大姨 aka Ling said no need, coz there's cold water available at the eating place. So 弟弟 thought about it and decided not to let Ah Ma bring his water bottle, coz he wants to drink COLD water...


弟弟 is excited for the lunch and so is 大姨!! And here we go to Bac Donald!! Oops. Sorry. Should be McDonalds!


As 大姨 likes to treat 弟弟 his favourite food, 大姨 asked 弟弟 what would he like..
大姨: 你要吃什么?
弟弟: 你随便叫,我随便吃 loh..


Goodness!!! This is exactly wat J J said!! What has kids been eating or learning nowadays?? 简直是人小鬼大!!

Since 随便叫and 随便吃, Ling ordered half a Filet-O-fish for JJ, which disappeared in about 5mins time.

But 弟弟 likes to have his fries first.

Indulging in his half Filet-O-fish.

Not forgetting giving one fries to Ah Ma. In our house, we always practise the virtue of Sharing.. Even for the Nuggests. 9pcs means each will have 3. Good boy knows that he has eaten 3pcs and honestly let 大姨and Ah Ma to have the rest.
But obviously he is a bit soured... coz he said: "这个都不好吃的.."

Eyeing at his COLD water... Good boy did not make noise even though he only had a small cup of his COLD water.

Ling thinks that bringing 弟弟to his BacDonald's is a good way to teach him things. For e.g.
- Learning some independence to ask for his currey sauce and COLD water
- To be polite when asking for curry sauce and cold water.
- Teaching him to share, and have his favourite food slowly, because nobody is going to snatch from him.
- Explaining why he cannot go the the Boy's toilet when he is with 大姨.
- Teaching him to clear the table (even though 大姨 will not clean it if she is out on her own).

*弟弟 is Ling's cousin's son, who is taken care of by Ling's mum. He is 3+years old.
