Chitty chatter with J

At church. After the mass was ended, as usual I kneel down and say a brief prayer.

J: mummy, I say a prayer for ah Gong a.

Me: ok sure!( I been telling them to pray for ah gong’s soul so that he and Jesus would meet and Jesus can bring him to heaven)

I’m happy that they know they can
Pray and importance of it. And also a reminder that kids learn through observation more. And self note that to raise a kid that is prayerful and responsible, I must be prayerful and responsible myself.

On the other subject, I brought J to dental, we chat on our way.

J: I love Sunday school.

Me: so do you like going church?

J: yes I like.

Me: why do you like going church?

J:because I like Sunday school

Me: so when no Sunday school do you like to go church?

J: no!

*zha dou*

Over the weekend, M&J played with their cousins V & A. Running, cycling, drawing, arguing, falling etc…..

Then SIL saw J’s coloring. He colored the people’s skin with black.

SIL: why you colour it black? Not beige colour meh?”

J: because she never scrub mah!

!!!!!! Only Jude will answer like that. We all had a good laugh. Don’t think I able to crack up such answer within snap of finger.

M&J ideas on God

We been regular to church for sometimes. The boys also in Sunday schools regularly since early this year. And we been making effort and commitment to have God as our centre of life by showing them example.

Their idea towards God, Jesus, church, heaven are all in pieces, and sometimes the things they tell u is confusing. Like they both will think the father that preach on Sunday mass is God. 😛 trying to explain to them but somehow they still think father is God.

They don’t exactly sit still during mass, or at least I assume they don’t listen to what father preach. But at times they surprise us by telling us what they hear during the mass.. Anyway they are only 5&3 yo respectively, I don’t expect them to sit real still at mass. So far they are doing well, adapting well in attending Sunday school, they haven’t give trouble to us, in fact they both need to be with a church member for 45min after their class dismiss while waiting for hub and I finish our RCIA course. They didn’t fuss also. I need to really thank lord for blessing us with a pair a very well adapted boys.

Today on the way to school, manfred suddenly blurred out:”

Manfred :mummy, God lives in a very very very big, very very colorful and beautiful house ho……..”

Me: yes, we cal it heaven.

Manfred: if I be very good boy, God will bring me to His house and live with Him
ho…

Me: 😉 yes u r right!

Manfred: and mummy and daddy and didi ho… But how do God bring us to His house?

Me: (feeling a bit challenge Liao) well, we don’t know how God will do it, but Only God knows when and how He will bring us to his house, so we just focus on being good, and share toys and love people ya..(phew.. I hope that is sufficient for now)

Manfred: ok

Jude: and God will bring yeye and mama to His house also ho…. And I got share toys with my kor kor!!

Me: yes darling..

So much of a conversation from home to school.. But I loving it.
