Once upon a time..
-------
as any mothers know, often it is very difficult to make the kids walk quickly home. They dragged themselves and one of my trick to make them walk faster is by telling them to compete (with one another) running from the main road into the house (dead end road)
I have to pretend to participate and let them win for the sake of it and as usual that day I came last and Nusaybah is the first and Rumaysa second.
Nusaybah then commented:
"Mama, I know why you always came last.."
"Why?" I asked
"It's because I am the skinniest amongst you and Adek, so I'm very light, Rumaysa is lighter then you and you are the heaviest and the widest, I mean you have the largest size so it's too heavy for you to run!"
Ouch!!!
Again she made me laugh and I come to understand the saying: kids always tell the truth! (Unless they have been corrupted lol)
"Aaah... Actually that makes sense Nusaybah"
That's all I can say to her!
