Quan's witty responses and tricks

Quan is getting more and more witty nowadays.

The EYES vs the MOUTH on TV
*****************************
Quan : Mama, I want to watch TV ...
Me : Have you finished your dinner?
Quan : No Mama but I want to watch now ...
Me : No Quan, you finish your dinner first.
Quan : Mama .... it's not me but my EYES want to watch ()

So it's not him .. it's the eyes har - Faintz. At this junction, I had to think really hard cos this answer is something really new to me.

Me : ok darling, you ask your MOUTH to tell your EYES that the MOUTH needs to eat first then after dinner, the EYES can watch TV.
Quan : ok mama.

Drinking Milo after dinner
***********************
Quan : Mama, I want to drink the packet Milo now ....
Me : Ok but not now, later when I come home
Quan : Mama, I want to drink now! *starts whining and crying
Me : Quan, you just had your dinner, you need to let your tummy rest.
Quan : But mama, I want to drink now! Mama, u say yes? *continues whine and cry.
Me : ok, Quan, what is the time now? you can only drink at 8pm.
Quan : Mama, it's now 8 o'clock.
Me : it's only 7+ , I know the time, is the clock with u? look carefully.
Quan : but Mama, it's really 8 now ... my clock is already 8.

* Thinking really hard how to convince him that it is 7+ only and suddenly it dawn on me that his clock might really be showing 8 and he is not lying cos he learnt to turn the clock to the correct time instead.

Me : Quan, did you do something to the clock?
Quan : Yes mama.
Me : Err, did you turn the clock to 8?
Quan : Yes and it's 8 now.
Me : (*double faint) ... ok, Quan, now look behind and see who's home?

* managed to get home in time with all the delaying tactics so that he dun drink immediately after dinner. Want him to learn on how to wait instead of wanting things instantly.
