Zara is one chatty girl. She talks most of the time. Quiet only when she’s asleep. Sometimes, perjalanan pergi dan balik ke kampung, jadi tak sunyi sebabkan dia dok bersembang. Walaupun aku tidur, in most of them. Buat teman abah-nya kot.
The following took place very recently. All in one day. This shows how fast kids learned. From everything around them.
******
Scene 1: I was putting on baju sekolah on her. When she danced around or more like spinning herself kot.
Zara: Am getting dizzy, mami!
Aku: Hah? U getting what?
Zara: Am getting diz-zy!
Aku: How do u know the word dizzy? Mana kakak dengar perkataan dizzy tu?
Zara: Little Einstein cakap. Sambil sengih.
*****
Scene 2: Zara was merajuk. In my attempt to pujuk her, I tried to be funny and sort of dancing sesuka hati sambil pakai heels. This happened when we were about to leave the house. Masa tiba kat lif, she tried to tiru me.
Zara: Zara tak pandai la mami, dancing macam mami tu.
Hubby: Buat apa Zara, macam mami?
Zara: Tu, macam mami tu. Tap dance.
Aku: Terkejut that she can actually put a name to dance aku yang caca-merba tu.
Both me and hubby laughed.
*****
Scene 3: We were in the lif, on the way to our parking lot.
Zara (while pointing to the signboard): Two D.
Zara (sambil cakap laju-laju) : 2D!
*****
While you may not understand, it was actually her tone, selamba-ness yang membuatkan incident ni funny. A+ for effort!
When look closely, you’ll realise how fast she grows. Kaki pun dah panjang. Akal, jangan cakap lah panjang-nya!
Semoga Zara membesar menjadi wanita yang solehah. Ammiiinnnn….
she reminds me of you when we were little girls.. ko time std 5-6 pun chatty and happy jugak orangnya
