MOMI LAUGHS/ Funny things Anecdotes from TOTS part 7

May 13, 2016 | Love, Only Berlin

Pardon the many installments.  I fear that you might find the post too long, thus cut them into parts.  I am sharing with you again those funny things my kids uttered.  These are when they were still small men pa.  These also remind me to never tire of listening to their stories.  Honestly, I learn more from them than they from me.

FUNNY THINGS ON HOW MANGOSTEEN GOT ITS NAME

Funny things on mangosteen

Do you already know how mangosteen got its name?

Let me tell you the story my boys created –

Once upon a time, in a not so faraway land, there lived an old man.  His neighbors would call him Mang Gustin.

One evening came a very heavy rain, almost destroying the crops and houses within that not so faraway land.

The next morning, in a vacant lot near Mang Gustin’s house, there grew a strange fruit.

Almost everyone in the neighborhood would ask for the name of the fruit.  And one neighbor said it’s Mang Gustin’s.

From then on, the strange fruit was named Mang Gustin then the story was passed from generation to another until the name became MANGOSTEEN.

The end.

FUNNY THINGS ON SUCH A BABY

February 20, 2013

Tonsillitis is in the house.  I asked the boys to gargle with Bactidol.  Firstborn tried very quickly.  Then I heard Bunso’s  sharp and sarcastic remark to his older brother:  “You are such a baby!

FUNNY THINGS ON DON’T MEDDLE WITH BUNSO

Funny things on MOnster War

For the first time, my Bunso got angry with me.

He was playing  Monster War  and I could hear his excitement.  He was about to finish level 5.  Out of too  much excitement as well, I tried to help him defend his base.  And he lost because of my stupid move.  He burst angrily, “You don’t meddle in my game!  I was about to win but you meddle and now I lost!”

He walked out angrily.  He did not speak with me again that night.  He got his pillows and slept in the other room.

That night, too, alone in the room, I played Monster War.  Indeed, it seemed impossible to reach level 6, but I played real hard to outplay those monsters.

The next morning Bunso didn’t greet me. He acted as if I was not there.  I went to our room to rest after cooking our lunch and breakfast.  I heard footsteps coming.

Bunso entered the room, went up the bed and joined me.  “How’s your day?” was his kind greetings to me.  I smiled and answered back, “Very good.  How about you?”  Then I handed to him our android tablet.

He noticed that our Monster War was now at level 6.  He hugged me so tight and asked, “You completed the level five for me because you want to make amends with me?”

I nodded.

“Now, you’ve learned your lessons.  Next time, you don’t meddle with me, ok?”

I embraced my bunso. I missed him terribly.

FUNNY THINGS ON PINNA, WHAT?

Funny things on pinna

I am one naughty mom.  I would sometimes tease my Bunso to sleep until he would beg me to stop and be still. I especially love kissing him on the cheeks or playing with his ears.  Yes, he shares the bed with me.

Last night, I kept on kissing him and would even tickle him everywhere.  His rather irritated tone made me stop.

Bunso:  Mama!  You’re touching my pinna!

Momi:  Your what?

Bunso:  My pinna!

Momi:  Pina?  Pinya?  Pinna?

Bunso:  Yes, my pinna.

Momi:  What’s that?

Bunso:  Better read my Science book.  It is the visible part of my ear.  Go to sleep, and next time, study with me.

Momi:  (grabbed her blanket and tucked herself in).

FUNNY THINGS ON MUCH OR MANY

Funny things on much and many

Getting ready for the upcoming 1st quarter examination in English.   I gave bunso a sample test questionnaire to check his countable (many) and uncountable (much) noun know-how.

Momi:   Bunso, you use MANY for butterflies because you can count them.

Bunso: no, I can’t count them that easy.  What if one or two butterflies flew?  How can I count them?

FUNNY THINGS ON INFO OVERLOAD

funny things on tKFC’s secret recipe

While on our way to a birthday party, the kids were tackling about the Magellan history.

Firstborn:  In a search for the Spice Island, Magellan set out from Spain with a fleet of five ships.  They ended up in the Philippines and was killed by Lapu-Lapu.

Bunso:  Too bad for him.  He should have been to KFC instead if he was looking for the Spice Island.  KFC has 11 secret herbs and spices!

Second son:  And he ended up being killed. Too bad!

    Your son really knows what the word “beautiful” means when he said it’s “mama.” He’s telling the truth.
