The one conversation that never fails to make my heart melt and a smile spring to my face…
Mommy: Love you, Jayvon
Jayvon: Love you, Mommy
But other than such heartwarming conversations, there are a number of pretty amusing things when it comes to my cheeky 22 month old!
If you follow my tweets, you’d know that I was commenting that Jay’s fave phrase nowadays is the word “Hippo Bus”.
Yes, the topless sightseeing bus that tours the city!
A few nights ago, I was telling Jay just before bedtime that we’ll be going on the Hippo Bus this weekend and he was understandably excited.
Then he paused for a few seconds, turned to Daddy and solemnly said…
“Daddy pay money sit hippo bus.”
Not me, I tell you! I totally didn’t teach him such a thing (though it can be such a useful thing… haha!)
Unfortunately, he was playing the fool this afternoon, and only settled for his afternoon nap at 3 p.m… and woke only at 6.15 p.m.! The last Hippo Bus was at 6.30, so we decided to bring him to his perennial favourite place… Marina Barrage! Or, in his own words…
“Baba Ba-rahj!”
The 1st time we went there at evening, and the scenery was gorgeous! We settled for steamboat dinner at the 7th Storey Restaurant at the Barrage, and it was such a fun-filled day!
