CHA!

CHA!





Last Friday night, both Grace and I had a short session of sing-a-long.

Anyway, halfway through the singing, she got all curious and tried to take the handphone away. I was flustered, for a moment.

As can be seen, she only knows just ONE word: Cha (tea). The pleasantly surprising thing is: she knows the melody, as well as the proper timing to insert her "Cha!". It seems like she's on cue or something.

She is just so endearing!


Tried to get her to sing along to her favourite "Old MacDonald (Had a Farm)", but she was just too engrossed in molesting my laptop. It's funny; she knows not to touch the family computer, but yet, couldn't seem to keep her hands away from laptops. Perhaps she is just too used and familiar with laptops; since she is allowed to play with her Dad's. But me? Stingy me doesn't even allow her to touch mine; because predictably, a touch will gradually evolve into something more.

She clearly knows that she's forbidden to touch my lappie; albeit she keeps mischieviously toeing the line. Trying her luck, most probably; that playful girl of mine. As can be seen, she touched the lappie, only to immediately pull back her hands and bring them to her chest while scanning my face for any negative response. Of course, she gets increasingly bolder with each attempt; even so much as to turn a deaf ear to the "Nonos". She usually listen well to "Nonos"; but apparently, not this time round.

Then again, perhaps it's partially my fault as well. Half of my mind was preoccupied with the recording video; instead of taking her by the shoulders, looking at her straight in the eyes, and asserting firmly, "Grace, nono.".
