Some difficult questions asked by the kids
Kuya: Mommy, what does ‘attack’ mean?
Me: Why? (puzzled) Where did you hear that? (I was thinking of attack as in heart attack)
Kuya: Because Patrick told Spongebob, ‘Spongebob, hurry! It’s going to attack!’
Don’t ask me how I managed to answer that question. Here’s another one:
Kuya: Mommy, why can’t we go to the brightest planet?
Me: Uh… I don’t know.
Kuya: Maybe because it’s too bright and it will hurt our eyes?
Me: Yes, that’s right (sigh of relief).
Sometimes, kids seem wiser than grown-ups. This week, on one of my very grumpy days, 4-year-old Ate looked up at me and said, “Mommy, you have to smile”. ☺
