Boys And Chores
I wish this is a normal sight on weekends at home. Raimie vacuuming his own room. But hey! He wanted to do it without prodding and I take it as a good sign. Once in a blue moon or otherwise!
p.s. because he was such in a productive mood, he ended up vacuuming the living area too. "Ii ko ne"?
Now, if he only he wants to study and revise his lessons without prodding...
Now, if he only he wants to study and revise his lessons without prodding...
p.p.s Mommy doesn't like chores... and wishes she needn't do it every week.
He's such a good boy..
ReplyDeleteHow I wish my boy would do the vacuuming for me..
ReplyDeleteyalor, haha!! rarely i see boys will take the initiative to do the vacuuming.. unless there's a rotan in front of them!! :D
DeleteAre you talking about yourself, too, SK? Muehehehehe!
DeleteYvonne, SK manjalah. Where got need to chores one! LOL
DeleteHey he will become like me. I wash toilets, mop floor, sweep all over, do laundry and buy food & grocery happily!
DeleteMy wife tak boleh tahan and kesian me, so she hired maid to clean house!! Ha ha ha....
DeleteBut who pays for the maid? You or her, TM? ;p
DeleteShe pays bills mah, me pay loans only.
Deletewow, raimie is just a very good boy lah.. can't believe he is your son!! hahahaha~~ :D
ReplyDeleteHe's bored lah... then he started playing with the vacuum. I told him, before kena marah with Daddy, if want to play; might as well vacuum room. And he did! xD
Deletei don't remember i have used a vacuum cleaner at home for more than 10 times!! wakakaka~~ :D
ReplyDeleteMe, too! I prefer the old-fashioned way - broom and dustpan.
DeleteI'm dummy to vacuum cleaner. Don't know how to replace the dustbag :p
I cannot tahan use broom. Geli to see all the hair stuck the broom and I'll take ages getting them out - with my feet. I really geli hair one. Buwek.....
DeleteI wanna buy the robot vacuum cos the price is cheap now, under RM500! Let robot suck the dusts while I blog la.
DeleteI wanna get one also!
DeleteLater I want to change all my furnitures so that the robot can go suck all the sampah-sarap under those furniture. Now, I have to move them around to clean every singe nook and cranny. ;p
I think last week I saw the Groupon selling that Robot Sucker for RM400. When it first came out, it was like almost RM2000! Gila .....
DeleteRM400 for that robot... ooo I want. Miss out on the Groupon deal lah..
DeleteSo you got it yet or not?
"because he was such in a productive mood, he ended up vacuuming the living area too".. so if he only he wants to study and revise his lessons without prodding.. what will you do?? you also go back to study?? kekeke~~
ReplyDeleteWho knows, right? ^^
DeleteThat said, I really should resume my Japanese & Korean studies... Forgot already how to read those Korean letters. @.@
eih really good lah, you've got such a good boy, really make your life easy!! this is call, well brought up by the mum~~
ReplyDeletehehehe, bodek bodek you a bit on a wednesday morning lah~~ :p
DeletePandai bodek, eh? I also bodek you already this morning. SO we even lah. kakaka
DeleteYeah la so fake wan, bodek bodek bodek...! You all boys and gals like to pat each other nowadays!! Kakakakakakaka
Deleteif mommy doesn't like to do the house chores, then can always merajuk and ask the son "you tak sayang mak lagi ke??".. then sure you have enjoy your life on the couch~~ :D
ReplyDeleteAiyoh! Like that evil Mommy lah.
DeleteI cannot show him I'm lazy mah. Lead by showing example. ;p
it may sound harsh to some but my kids clean their own room abt his age .. part of my so called training for their on their own days lol .. by the time they reach secondary school, they take turn to clean the bathroom that they share .. i monitor of course hehe ..
ReplyDeleteKJ,
DeleteNo, not harsh at all. Like I always nag my son - when I was at his age, I handwashed the family bundle of laundry on weekends. I ironed my own uniforms.
He had it easy.
I rasa anak I kalau suruh cuci tandas, mau mabik half a day. Main air. kikiki
god good...get him to clean up
ReplyDeleteotherwise, he wait for you to clean...then wait gf clean...then wait wife clean...haiz....
ReplyDeleteYalor... must educate him so later no woman will have to "suffer" from his inability to help around the house.
DeleteGood thing he has good example. Daddy is pretty good with chores too. ^^
wei...one thing at a time la...maybe tomorrow he will surprise you leh. no need prodding the do revision
ReplyDeleteI wish. I wish. ;p
Deletepsss. pss....out of topic sikit...the indian man floating comment ah....tha one is at the same place i stayed or at other place?
ReplyDeletehahaha... sorry. The "the hotel room" should be "their hotel room". ;p
DeleteNo, not the hotel you stayed. That was in Kajang. ;p
I'm a cleanaholic, I don't trust my hubb or children when comes to cleaning issue.
ReplyDeleteBut then, I still let my kids sweep/mop/wipe so that I'll have more time myself, kekeke! I do the QA inspection afterwards.
I used to do it all the time too, but then I learnt that I cannot do this all by myself and I close one eye lor whenever the boys helped out. ;p
DeleteMust train them since young, otherwise they would always depend on others when they grow up - spouses/maids/parents.... tsk, tsk.
ReplyDeleteYeah.
DeleteSome of my friends' children told their parents "I'm not the maid" when they were asked to clean up their room. Tsk tsk...
Mothers are the best role model for their children.
ReplyDeleteEr, this gadis doesn't like house chores, and yet Raimie picks up the good habit.... follow daddy?
Doesn't like but still has to do mah...
DeleteAnd he has a Daddy who is a neat-freak. ;p
Zaini is a neat freak? Ooo. I think I like your husband! ;)
DeleteYup. That's why he's the one sorting out or stacking stuff in this family. He does all the packing and unpacking too. He's married to someone who regards chucking a bundle of clothes on the sofa as sorting out the laundry. LOL
DeleteRaimie's room is neat. Good to train from young regardless what gender.
ReplyDeleteThat'w when he is not working on any "project" of his. Otherwise, gila messy!
DeleteAnd when I ask him to clear them, he'll say he's not finished with whatever he's doing so how to clean? *slap head*
you are blessed...
ReplyDeletegot a good son.. so next you train him on washing the clothes, iron clothes, mop floor, clean toilet.. kakakakakaka
Wash clothes - daddy do. ^^
DeleteIron clothes - mommy do.
Mop floor - daddy
I think I train him to wash toilet lar... He likes playing with water. LOL
looks like a tv in the room.
ReplyDeleteis it?
Yup. Old TV.
Deletethat one is wood floor, if you use vacum it will not scratch the floow?
ReplyDeleteNope. Anyway, I hate using broom and get dust flying all around me. I have sinus problem. Easy just vacuum everything up instead. xD
Deleteso you curi curi take his picture from the back? kakakakaka
ReplyDeleteYalor... otherwise he sure sibuk2 want to pose one! LOL
DeleteLike mother like son!! Pandai posing wan... Kakakakaka
DeleteBagus bagus, do it more often so mum can relax and focus more on running *chuckled. Neways, I have the same vacuum at home. Heck even the color is the same lol
ReplyDeleteMassy, I have the same thought too! We runners. LOL
DeleteSame vacuum too. Wow! kakaka
So one day when he comes to Tokyo to study at university, I can offer free bed and breakfast in return for sweeping and cleaning! :D
ReplyDeleteIf you can stand his chatter. Once he is comfortable with you (he'll clam up if he is not); he'll talk about nonsense just so he can talk... regardless of who is listening. ;p
DeleteYou should save this photo and one day ... ooooone day ... show it to his wife-to-be. ;)
ReplyDeleteNo. No. No. I am going to be an evil mother-in-law.
DeleteI am not going to pamper her by showing him all Raimie's good side. *evil laugh*
LOL that happens to me too sometimes! This actually reminds me to vacuum my room too. I'm glad I read this hehe
ReplyDeleteOh, did you give him something as a reward? :p
Nope. No reward.
DeleteHe was enjoying himself so I didn't want to spoil it by making him think that it's a chores. ;p
