conversation with claire

'claire, would u like ur future boyfriend/ hubby to express his love to you openly?' i asked.

'i dun want leh!' she said.

'u mean u prefer someone who's quiet about his feelings and not be expressive about his love for u?' i probed.

'i think...not too expressive nor too dull lah! like somewhere in betwmomeen." she went on.

'why? dun u like someone who's open about his feelings about u?' asked the curious cat in me.

'mommy, if he's always sweet-talking me, i'm sure he will also do that to other girls outside! how can the words be 100% trusted? i will prefer someone who tells me once in a while lah!' she explained her position.

well, after this conversation, at least i knw claire is not someone who will be swarmed by honeyed words. at this tender age, she already rejects boys who are 油枪滑调! or maybe having a daddy who's prim and proper with reticent nature, she doesn't fancy boys who vary too much from daddy's nature, haha.

no wonder, the children's inclination twds men in their growing up years will tend to model after their own fathers....as such, joy and claire are likely to get quiet and steady personalities as their other halves! (though joy thinks that she prefers sunshine boys at this stage)

  1. Soon, give her two more years. Once Claire promotes to secondary school, I am sure she will attract more bees.

  2. Wow, Claire is so matured in her thinking. Yes, agree with White, Claire will have many bees when she gets into Sec 1.
