Weighing Scale, Anyone?

Image
Petite Pedia Plots 83 A Mom sought phone consult about her child. Asked her what the latest weight was. She didn't know. Wala daw silang weighing scale sa bahay. She asked around her neighborhood for one. Ang binigay sa kanya? Timbangan ng gulay! 

Injection!!!

Petite Pedia Plots  82 It's one of those days... 😜💪🏻🍼💉 4 y/o comes in for her annual flu shot.  Upon entering the clinic, she was thirsty so they had to buy water; hungry so they had to buy cookies; wanted to pee so they went to the rest room; sang  monkeys jumping on the bed, danced the nae nae, did some math problems, wrote her name, played with ALL the toys in the room, smiled, and cried for a loooooong time.  She told me she didn't want to visit Tita Doc anymore because she always got shots.  She didn't want to see my friend, Ate Anne, because she knows that when she sees her, it's time for the shot. She didn't like to lie down, she didn't like to sit either. She didn't like my band-aids, the lollipop, the examination bed, the color pink and generally, anything under the sun. After about an hour and a half, we finally gave the shot. I don't know how moms do this every day. But, kudos to you guys!

So you don't forget!

Daughter Duties 20 My Mom has this penchant for nagging, as do most mothers. :) So, she tells the same story to a relative to try to get her point across.  Relative answers her with "Alam ko na yan, Ate Enie. Nakwento mo na yan dati."  Mom replies, "Alam ko.  Pero inuulit ko lang para di mo makalimutan." 😖😜😁👊🏻 from www.clipartof.com

Bongo?!?!

Daughter Duties 19 My Dad had trained our dog to poop outside 1st thing in the morning and to go back to his cage when we call him back. Mom was already getting mad because she kept on saying "Bonggo, pasok!" and he still wouldn't enter his cage. Finally, she realized his name is "Bingo" and with just one call, he entered his cage. Dogs and Moms are truly amazing! Hehe. 😂😝😖😜

Mom's Pic

Daughter Duties 18 This picture is what my Mom used for her first senior citizen card.  I think she was in her 30s when they took this picture.  Black and white/sepia tinged.  I remember the cashiers couldn't help but smile when they saw this. :)

Mom's Recommended Book

Daughter Duties 17 While walking inside National Bookstore, Mom singled out a book for me to buy. She was laughing hard while pointing to it. Its title? "Oh God, I'm still single!"  Nang-aasar ang Nanay ko. 😖😫😩

My Prince Elsa Series 2

Petite Pedia Plots 81 My 3 y/o male "QueenElsa" came in the room wearing a blue shirt and shorts. Thinking that things might have changed in between check-ups, I asked him if his favorite color was blue. And he quips, "Pink!" complete with eyerolling. When I asked him what he was wearing, he said, "a blue shirt, shorts and a panty!" I corrected him and said "brief".  He insisted it was a panty. Alam na talaga!

Ophan's Woes

Petite Pedia Plots 80 While checking up on my kids in the orphanage, a 5 y/o told me that one of his friends was getting adopted. He said, "kapag behave ang bata, binibigyan siya ng mama at papa".  At that age, he could already understand.  It broke my heart. 💔

The Wants of a 6 Month Baby

Petite Pedia Plots 79 My 4 yr old patient is on a 'sweets' restriction diet because he is already obese.  So, to make his Mom buy him sweets, he tells her that his 6-month old brother is hungry and would like some "fudgie bars".  Buti na lang hindi kumakagat si Mommy. ;p From Pinterest - Big Brother of Prince
