The Angel and The DeVil

Yu, can be adorable and thoughtful like an angel. He says the most adorable things and says "OK" to everything u ask him to do and do just what you tell him to do. 

At the same time, he can be a devil and that is when we really want to pack him into a box and send him home. You tell him to do 1, silence. You ask him if he hears what you say. Silence. You get mad at him and tell him to do it RIGHT NOW and he refuses and talks back and bad. 

Parents. I salute u... for having to deal with this every day.  

That day we went to Kuching Festival together to pull him out of his iPad, handphone, games addiction.  At first, he said he wanted to play some games to win a gift. After going round the games corner twice, he did some analysis and said, nah, the games are scams. Even if he wins, the value of the prize doesn't match the money he pays 😅 He is such a calculative careful boy.

We went to the AC area to see gifts and merchandizes. Yu is quite good at lego assembling and we saw shops selling many types of cartoon legos. The smallest set is only RM4.99 each.  According to Yu, this is cheap so we decided to each get one. Yu promised that he would assemble for us before his vacation ends. So, Yu bought a Lufi, Jane bought a Minnie Mouse and I bought a Tigger. Jane also bought a completed Pooh Bear which the cashier displayed at her counter for RM4.99. 

Of course, it was through a lot of pushing and 'bribing" that he finally completed his Rufi and my Tigger. Poor Jane, her minnie mouse is still in "pieces". HA! Jane paid RM4.99 for a completed pooh bear is definitely more value for money than getting Yu to assemble for us 😂

I was hoping that I could have one set of Pooh & Friends Lego one day. I wonder if that hope would ever come true. 

Someday, May be someday...
