Multiparenting Cayen & Cayson

I usually asked Cayson if he’s kind today. Usually, he doesn’t share anything specifically but today he’s excited to share that teacher did ask him something related today.  Teacher has asked how to be kind and caring to someone ? Cayson said something like, “ Ask someone what makes them happy?”  I didn’t quite get it so I asked him what he meant. He said,  “When old people in wheelchair are sad, you ask them what will cheer them up , and then they tell me and I will do it”  Whoa ..  that’s quite thoughtful.  Apparently the teacher was impressed too, she told Daddy about this as well , that he’s caring and he knew how to express it.  ——-  Funny note:  Later that day  , Ah Gong dropped him home but didn’t go home together.  Cayson: Coronavirus. Why Ah Gong still going mahjong?  Ah Pa: Why you didn’t tell him not to go?  Cayson: Ah Gong don’t listen. 

Cayson’s QOTD: “ You cannot scold me , I’m a kid.” “ 静静有条！” Cayson exclaimed when trying to ask Cayen to keep quiet at night. (It’s actually 井井有条） He probably declared after he wiped the table, “干干净净”. I was impressed and asked him where he learned it from. He said Berries. Then he asked me earnestly again if I had gone to Berries when I was a kid.  Recent other chats Cayen:  What is the tax? 7%?  Me: Yes  Cayen: So for every $100, I have to pay $7. Oh then I will just buy $50 so I never need to pay the tax Me: No, it doesn’t work that way, it’s from first dollar onwards…  (For the rest of the whole night, he self entertained and made jokes about asking for 7% extra for everything) ———————————— Cayson’s meet the parents session  As usual, he got glowing comments about being a model student. In fact, he seemed to enjoy reading and learning and would even consult his good friend I in school when there’s words he doesn’t know how to read from the textbook. And teacher said that while he’

Cayson likes to play chinese chess with Ah Po but he doesn’t like to lose. And Ah Po claims she often loses if she doesn’t wear her glasses. So one day after Cayson lost a few games, Ah Po’s glasses went missing ! Cayson had hidden it away .. only to return it the next day.  Ah Po was amused by how he could remember where he had hidden it and how he hates losing.  ——  I made an attempt to cook Japanese pasta and I threw in shreds of onions for the taste. Cayen picked them up one by one. I was frustrated and asked if he had an onion detector in mouth. He replied, “ I have a tongue”. Lol !
