The Point Is...

Whilst getting Gabriel to brush his teeth today..

G : So just the other day, I was using my Lio against Ge-'s (his cousin) L-Drago and *dssh* *dssh*... my Lio attacked his L-Drago and I won.
Me : Gabriel, it's not all about winning. In any game, you play to have fun as well. Do you understand?
G : Daddy, Daddy, my point is, can you buy me a Storm Pegasus?

(Btw, this is little-boy-speak. He was talking about Beyblades.)

Overheard today

Whilst Gabriel was practicing his piano pieces today, lil' Rafa came by and started rummaging through Gabriel's stationery box. Gabriel turned around, opened up a glue stick and said in a stern voice,

"Rafa! Put it back. Do you want Ge-ge to put glue on your face and stick you to the wall?"

I totally burst out laughing, at the same time trying to scold him for saying that.

Fall

(backdated post from 17th Nov 2010)

This is just for the record, in case he forgets.

New hobby

Watching his fish and his tadpoles, to grow legs probably.

Gabriel's Excuses

This evening before dinner.

G: Mummy, I'm not ready for dinner yet.
M: Why not?
G: (thought for a while and spoke in a serious manner) Mmmm... It's because I finished one whole plate of chicken rice during lunch and I'm still full.

Truth is, he wanted to watch 'Despicable me'.

Just now, he took a while to sleep and was tossing and turning. He came to me in all seriousness again..

G: Mummy, I can't fall asleep.
M: Why not?
G: Hmmm... There is not enough air in this room. (touching his chest) I am feeling hot and I cannot breathe really well.
M: * slap forehead* Do you want to sleep outside then?
G: No... I don't want.

He immediately went back to bed and fell asleep within a minute!

Talk about lousy reasoning. :)
