#RLFunnies | MISS UNIVERSE!

YouTube capture.

We were watching the Friday night news.

The new reigning Miss Universe is currently in town visiting. Upon seeing her on TV, RL yells out loud...

"Hey, It's Pia Horseback!"

LOL!

*Apologies to our Miss Universe, Pia Wurtzbach. You are most beautiful, and my little boy RL loves you. He just can't pronounce your name. This was his best effort before we taught him the right pronunciation. Hehehe.

#RLFunnies | Hiding!

I have been so busy at work. Taking a quick break just to update the blog a bit. I will be back with a giveaway! Soon, promise! So do stay tuned. Meanwhile, here's a short and funny story about my little boy.

Still capture from Max and Ruby.

A few weeks ago, RL went to the mall with my mom and KY. While they were at the rest rooms, the little boy decided to play a trick on his a-mah (grandma in Chinese) and went out of the rest room ahead of them. KY caught him hiding behind a wall but pretended not to see. After he was given the chance to catch his a-mah by surprise, this conversation happened.

KY: "RL, you shouldn't go off on your own because there are a lot of bad people. Do you want them to kidnap you? We won't see you anymore if someone decides to get you." 

After giving KY's lecture much thought...

RL: "That's why I was hiding so the bad people won't see me!"

Okay, I have a smart-aleck for a son. LOL!

#RLFunnies | GOD CAN DO EVERYTHING!

Sophie, after her bath at 12midnight!

Let me share a brief backgrounder to this story. Yesterday, right when I got home from work, our nanny tells me that Sophie, our cat, is missing. Not only was she missing, but she has been missing since early afternoon. Apparently, Yaya J searched high and low, to no avail. Long story short, we found the cat. But not after I freaked out, because I spoke to the nanny 3x throughout the day yesterday, and she thought it best not to mention the fact that my baby cat was missing-in-action. Also, it took a while for me to join the hunt because I had to take the kids to the nearby mall to get their visa photos taken. So yes, I was antsy.

While getting the photos, I had a talk with my kids. I learned that they didn't even stop to pray. I asked A if she prayed for God to help her find the cat, and she says she didn't even get to think about praying because right when she came into the courtyard, her nanny quickly asked her to search the attic. RL says he didn't pray as well, but used his magic powers and incredible brain. So I took the opportunity to teach them about seeking God first.

This morning, on the way to school, I quizzed RL to see if he learned anything from last night.

K: "So what was the important lesson you learned last night?"
RL: "To pray!"
K: "Yes, you must always remember to call on God first. If you need help or if you are in trouble, ask God for help. You can say, 'Lord Jesus, help me!' okay?"
RL: "Okay."
K: "Your first reaction should be to ask God first. Don't try to solve things on your own or to ask others before you ask God. He should be the first one you turn to for help. Do you understand?"
RL: "Yes."
K: "Because you know, man can't do everything, but God is all-powerful. He can do anything!"
RL: (silent)

After a few seconds, he blurts out a nagging question.

"So God can lick His elbows?!!"

Hahaha, how would you answer that question? I told him to ask God when He gets the opportunity. Hehehe.

My funny little boy. 

#RLFunnies | Dear God...

Because he was absent from Christian Living class when his teacher explained the Four Kinds Of Prayers, I took it upon myself to teach and explain the lesson to RL the day before he went back to school. Checking their online assignment app, I learned they were having a test on his first day back. So we studied all night.

The next day, I decided it was wise to review the lesson.

K: "I will say a prayer, then let me know what kind of prayer it is, okay?"
RL: "Okay."
K: "God is great. God is good..."
RL: "Adoration!"
K: "Okay, how about... 'Thank you, God, for the food'."
RL: "Thanksgiving!"
K: "How about... 'Bless us, Oh Lord, and these Thy gifts which we are about to receive from Thy bounty, through Christ, our Lord, Amen'?"
RL: "RECESS!"

Yep, I have a silly boy. LOL!

#RLfunnies | COME AGAIN?

In bed, while waiting to doze off...

RL: "Mom, what does 'come again' mean?"
K: "Come again? You mean to welcome the person back someday?"
RL: "Hmmm... So why does my teacher say it all the time? Even if we're not going anywhere?"
K: "What do you mean?"
RL: "Sir J always goes 'Come again? Come again?' when someone is talking to him..."

Sus. Generation gap. #sigiripit

RL Funnies | BUYING A BIRD!?

We were in the car on the way to Rockwell for a workshop. Yaya J was telling me about her sideline. She has started selling all sorts again, because she will be sending two kids to school next year.

J: "Kanina kasi, kaya di mo ko mahanap, pinatawag ako ni Ma'am Catherine. Bibili kasi siya ng Avon. Regalo daw niya sa sarili niya sa pasko." (When you were looking for me earlier, I was at Ma'am Catherine's. She is going to buy things from Avon as Christmas gifts for herself.)
K: "Nagbebenta ka na ulit ng Avon?" (You're selling Avon stuff again?)
J: "Yup, kasi alam mo na, dalawa na papasok sa school next year, so kailangan kumayod ng extra." (Yup, because I will have two kids in school next year, so I need to make extra money)
RL (interrupts): "What? Tita Catherine is going to buy a bird?!!"

LOLOLOL! All this time, RL was eavesdropping!

If you're reading this and you don't quite get it, the tagalog word for bird is ibon. Hehehe. That's what happens when toddlers eavesdrop on conversations.

I thought this was really funny. Did you think so too?

RL Funnies: BABY POWDER!

I took RL with me to do the groceries last night. On our way to check out, we passed by the mass display of Johnson's Baby. He pointed out the new Johnson's Baby Active Fresh baby powder and this conversation ensued:

RL: "Mommy, we should buy the new powder, because it's so hot in the house."
K: "But you still have powder at home."
RL: "But this new one is nice. I always get pawis kasi."
K: "What's so special with this powder?"
RL: "You put it on my neck, so that when my pawis touches the powder, sasabog ang bango!"

LOL! Isa lang masasabi ko: effective ang commercial! May retention sa bata. Hahaha! Sasabog ang bango sa bagong Johnson's Baby Active Fresh baby powder.


PS. This isn't a paid ad, and yes, it really happened.

RL Funnies: A Phineas and Ferb Adventure!

I had used GCs to purchase Phineas and Ferb toys for the little boy. RL loves imaginative play. You can hand him a figurine, a car, even a pencil and eraser and they all come to life with his imagination!

Tonight was no different! I caught him playing with Phineas, Ferb, Perry and Dr. Doofenshmirtz!

RL: "Let's go, Ferb! I'll race you to the 'suffin'! Last one to the 'suffin' is the loser!"
K: (Interrupting) "What's a 'suffin'? Is it their base?"
RL: (Stops to look at me) "No."
K: "Their spaceship?"
RL: "No."
K: "Their home?"
RL: "Noooo."
K: "The planet they created?"
RL: (Irritated now) "Noooooo!"
K: "Then what's a 'suffin'?"
RL: (Points to his side of the bed) "This one is the 'suffin', you know so the bed doesn't get wet when I make wiwi!"

Ay anak! Sapin! LOL!

RL Funnies: Practice!

My mom wants RL to start preschool this year. She's bringing him to A's school next week - for assessment to see if he can try preschool for the second semester.

Because of this, I've had to practice drilling him with Qs. Last night, while giving him a bath, I drilled him some more...

K: "What's your name?"

RL: (Shrugs) 

He's been having a hard time pronouncing the Rs and Ls. So he stops himself from saying his own name because we used to laugh a lot at his pronunciation. Oops! 

After a few times of helping him out, he finally gets it right. So we move to parents' names.

K: "What's your dad's name?"

RL: (Shrugs) "I don't know."

Ok, that may be an acceptable answer, don't you think? (Guffaw!)

K: "What about mom's name? What's my name?"

RL: (Confidently) "Kaye!"

K: "Can you spell my name?"

RL: "It's on your ID! You go check!"

Hahaha! My little boy is NOT ready for school. Nyar.
