This incident happened about 3 weeks ago when we were at Times Square. After a day of fun at the Cosmo’s World indoor theme park, we had lunch at a Chinese restaurant at Times Square. While waiting for the food to arrive, I walked to the FOS outlet. Rascal #2 said she wanted to pee, so I brought her to the loo, after which I brought her along with me to FOS. While busy looking at the clothes, this rascal let go of my hand and then wandered off. When I turned back, she was no where to be found. I called her name several times but there was no answer from her. Suddenly I was panick-stricken and all sorts of images and imagination flashed my mind. I called her again and this time, a sales girl next to me pointed to her front. I saw my cheeky rascal hiding among the rack of clothes… her body was still hidden between the clothes and she jutted her head out and gave me the cheekiest grin. I tell yer, I could feel steam spewing out from my head and I was yelling at her, chiding her for being so naughty.
Tell me, how would you feel if your child successfully flat-lined your heart beat with her mischief? I ranted on and on and on and on. Up until today, I still bring out this incident whenever we go shopping. I would frighten her by telling her that if she hides herself from me again, some bad hats will kidnap her. Then the bad person will shave her head bald, change her clothes (so that no one could recognize her, thus can never find her) , chop off her hands and legs, remove all her teeth and make her beg for money on the streets LOL!!! I have to use this white lie to prevent her from repeating the naughty act. Sherilyn being Sherilyn, I know she’s capable of repeating her mischief.
But when my rascal is good, she would be really angelic. One morning last week, she took out her pre-school’s stack of flash chards and kept reading them, as if preparing herself for an exam hahaha! What motivates her is the cute stamp/chop that her teacher would chop on the card if she gets the card right.
