Things Jerry Says #22 – Do it again! Again!
Der shared this story with me the other day. He was driving the kids home when he was going into a merging lane and the car beside him is crawling slowly. He stepped on the accelerator and revved up to zoom pass the vehicle next to him in order to merge properly and at that point, the car let out a loud… VVRRRAAAOOOOOMMM!
Jerry, who is usually very aware of everything while riding in the car started questioning.
J (Jerry): Woahhhh! Papa, what’s that?!
D (Der): What?
J: Your car is very fast.
D: Ya, the car in front is very slow, so my car is angry. [he is talking nonsense here!!]
J: Ya… your car is angry… [ponders for a few secs] Papa! Can you do that again?! AGAIN!!
(p.s. I have no idea if the husband repeated the act, or not but it is to my own best interest not to find out.)
Honestly, I hate it when the husband sprout nonsense to the kids (what is he teaching them?!) but I wasn’t around to correct him that day. Then again, I guess we make a good complement to each other for the kids as parents because he makes life more fun for the kids while I am more the serious one and more concerned about what they learn is correct and proper and probably, the more boring parent.
Do you teach your kid nonsense for a good laugh or are you like me, the boring proper parent? Do share and tell me!
You can also read about the time where he tried to play the traffic conductor while daddy was driving or read the rest of Things Jerry Says on the blog. I try to blog at least 1 post about what my son, Jerry says once a week when I am not too busy with work so do keep checking back!

Hi there! Thanks for popping by. I'm Cherie, a ftwm (full-time working mum) to 3 lovely kids (2 boys & a princess) and my motto in life is to BE HAPPY. Sure, life isn't all that smooth but it's the mentality that counts, no? This blog documents my life. Or rather, snippets of my life that has passed me by. I love capturing life memories in the blog and being able to read back and laugh at myself (or anyone). I love to eat (A LOT), travel and paint my own nails so the blog is mostly about that. Is that considered lifestyle? Of cos, the family is also very much an integral part of me so there would be loads of memories about the husband and my kids - Jerry (9yo), Jerome (7yo) and Leia (2.5yo) and everyone else that's close to me. I like documenting the kids' milestones, their growing up years, their achievements (and sometimes, mine), and my struggles and battles with motherhood. It sure ain't easy. I love seeking out good food and travelling, is trigger-happy, love new gadgets, love exploring new places and strives to live life to the fullest. I aspire to travel the world as much as I can, to soak in the different sights across the various continents and visit all the Disneylands in the world (almost there!). Have fun reading and do drop me a comment to say hi! Love, Cherie Lim Find me on Instagram.
