He's In Charge
We went grocery shopping yesterday. Just me and my "anak bujang". Daddy's home late so we decided we'd do it first before a late dinner with him.
Son wanted to make ice-cream and I planned on doing a simple salsa to eat with our breakfast burritos and maybe a smoothie and muffins too so I printed out the grocery list and let Son be in charge of making sure we get everything.
Kids do tend to get bored when we do grocery shopping and I find that making him involved in the process makes it more fun. He does have the tendency to wander off but with the list in his hand, he was focused and excited all through the shopping trip!
and he's in charge in front of the cashier too. ^^
After all, he's a big boy now.
Mommy can so totally depend on him.
He once told me this "If it's not me who look after you, then who else?" Oh... gitu.... Hahaha
He did get impatient with Mommy when Mommy somehow got sidetracked before going to the supermarket and suddenly ter"bought" a new handbag. Bwahaha

ReplyDeleteIt will be like a treasure hunt. :)
ReplyDeleteYup. :-)
Deleteaiyohhh.... so sweet. Grocery shopping and cooking are going to be fun from today onwards. :P
ReplyDeleteDefinitely :-)
DeleteWell, good that he is independent enough, so mummy can relax already ;)
ReplyDeleteThere are other things Mommy need to fuss over when their kid becomes independent! lol
DeleteDid he sneak in a few chocolates? :)
ReplyDeleteHe did.
DeleteOh... you didn't see what he made us.. I posted it on FB.
Chotto :p
oh yeah, i think it will definitely turn boring into fun if we get the kids involved in what we are doing.. nice move Mak Glam for letting the young man be in-charge of the grocery shopping..
ReplyDeleteDidn't plan on it actually but I did have a list and thinking that it's gonna be boring n tiring to go to three supermarkets (as I want to compare prices) I gave him the list to keep him occupied and quit nagging at me! Lol
Deleteeih, you went shopping after work near your workplace?? i actually do often compare price between the two in the same mall, lazy to go to that one which is in another mall lah and because i know that one also always a lot more expensive.. hehe!! i really do not mind walking back to the supermarket after finding the other selling the things more expensive :D
DeleteIt's either at my workplace or the ones in Bangsar which can be more expensive. ... :p
Deleteand i guess the young man also offered to carry all the groceries while the mommy happily carries her beg tangan yang terbeli, hahahaha!! so sweet of the boy to say "If it's not me who look after you, then who else?", he better understands clearyl what he has said, because Mak Glam sure takes no joke and will make the young man do what he said, kekeke!! :p
ReplyDeleteHe seems to be serious about what he said...
DeleteBut we see la... like I always tell him "wait till you have a girlfriend" huhu
muahahaha!! and that is very true lah.. putting him between the girlfriend and the mommy will be a real test for him!! but at least you can still enjoy your "monopoly" on him for at least 6 years from now lah~~ :p
Deletethat's a good way to train a kid. He learns to be responsible. He deserves a pat on his shoulder.
ReplyDeleteHe sure does
DeleteBeside the chocolate, did he get tibits also, hehe...
ReplyDeletePringles for him n twisties for his mommy :-)
DeleteI'm curious - what ice cream did Raimie made?
ReplyDeleteP/s:what flavour is dark green Pringles?
Chocolate.
ReplyDeleteActually he wanted to make mango chocolate but mommy wasn't keen. Hahaha
Green pringles is seaweed flavour :-)
Good for you, you got "special helper" now!!! =]
ReplyDeleteNeed to start them from young ^^
Deletegood boy and hope to be a "anak yang soleh".
ReplyDeleteall women always ter bought new handbag...heee.
