At around 6:30 pm, i accompanied Farah to pick him up from school. Muhd Iman was all cranky and incredibly disappointed when he saw that his mommy wasn't there to pick him up. He really hated me la. Look at how he clung on to Farah like his life depended on it. I was so sure that it was gonna be the longest evening of my life.
He refused to even look at me ah! But you must admit though, Farah handles the kid like a pro. It was like i was being introduced to her very own kid! She is brilliant with kiddos. Really. I would completely trust my kid, husband and family pets with her, without hesitation. If i ever have those.
Oh anyway, much to my delight, Iman cosied up to me!!!
In the span of less than an hour, he led me to the bathroom, stripped naked and asked me to...
BATHE HIM. Fast eh this boy. "Hot water, HOT WATER!" And so I obliged. My first time, I swear. Not a bad first attempt right!
Then after dressing him up (and after Farah cleared the mess he made in the kitchen), we all settled down with clean, nice smelling, Iman! He's a really smart 2 and a half year old! Pretty impressive kid. He knows many words. He is also the most cheena sounding baby I've ever met. Then again, he's the only half chinese kid I've spent time with. Yes he's half chinese and the only thing that's even remotely melayu about him is his name. The "mehs" ahhh... really cannot tahan man. And he loves "Wheels on the bus".
Then we played,
and played...
and showered Iman with a lot of LOVE!
"Iman you sayang Kaka or not?"
*nods*
"Atuk?"
*vigorously nods*
Okay putting him to sleep was a challenge. But Farah managed it, as you can see.
Still, anybody wanna hire us? Haha. Or maybe just Farah? Drop us a note and maybe something can be arranged.
I finally have to agree with Farah; boys are a whole lot much more fun than baby girls. I like listening to Iman talk, even though it makes no sense. But you can somehow make out what he's trying to say. Really. And he is so well behaved. I didn't even have to threaten to throw him out of the window (which i did anyway and made him scream in terror... just so i could see his reaction, damn funny!)
It was fun and I probably won't mind doing this again. Not alone though. I wouldn't know what to do if he really jumps out of the window. At least with a goldfish, you can maybe get away with a replacement. A dog, you can blame it on the dog's own stupidity but a kid?? Omg i'm scaring myself just thinking about it.
