There are bound to have some "mishap" bringing up kids. Of course, we hope that these mishaps are more positive than negative.
Here's one of our "mishap" with Ning:
We've come across a few of our friends and neighbours calling their partners "daddy" and "mummy". And we find it rather interesting since a wife is not a mummy to the husband and vice versa. But our friends justified that they call each other in this manner so as to educate the kids and to show them this is the way to address their parents.
For WF and I, we don't address each other like this. We prefer to call each other by our given names. There are times though, WF will call me "lao bor" and I will reply him back as "lao gong". Even in front of our kids.
And yep, it did "backfire" one day. This was what we found out (click to see the video)...
what is your name.mov
Mishap, you can call it. But it was more hilarious than anything. At least she got her brother's and maid's name correct.
P.S: The video was taken some time after our first discovery. It was so funny I had to take it down and show it on the blog. Until today, she still remembers my name and WF's name as "lao bor" & "lao gong".
