A question finally asked....by Ah Gal

All this time, she doesnt seem to be keen with babies when you brought her to baby showers, etc.

A friend askef if she has ever asked for a didi or meimei, I said no and in my heart, thinking she would not ask. She hasnt indicated any interest.

But surprising for the first time yesterday, while waiting for her gym class to start and both of us were playing, she suddenly blurted "When will I have a meimei?"

My heart sank a little. It's going to haunt me.

My bedtime nonsense with little gal

Why are there lightning and (then) thunder? My bedtime nonsense with little gal again.

Last night both of us lied down to sleep with the still heavy thundery showers. As we spoke, the lightning became intense and was much more obvious in the totally dark room.

I blurted:"Who is trying to turn on the lights?" Little gal looked at me. Feeling I had to continue with that conversation, I said:"Oh, I know! 雷公 (thundergod) was trying turn on the lights. And when he cannot manage to turn them on, he becomes angry and said 'GOOOOOONG'!

Little gal chuckled nonstop.

For the next 10 minutes, and as I shut my eyes to sleep , I kept hearing the noise beside me asking "who is trying to turn on the lights" and chuckled, each time the lightning cracked.
