Kids Amuse Me Monday
Last weekend we took the kids to the library to borrow books for them to read during the week. We have been bringing the kids to the library more often now that there is a new library that opened up in a mall that we frequently visit after mass on Sunday.
Guess who picked up this book for R and I to read?
A- Monkey Boy
B- Doggie boy
C- Tiger Girl
I was surprised when this book was selected and thrust to me to borrow. I never expected one of my kids to select such a book. One of them must really feel that as parents we still lack the relevant skills in parenting girls and need to read up more.
We have only been raising our girl for the past 20 months and still have lots to learn about raising girls as compared to boys. I guess this must be on the mind of my kid who took the book for me to read.
So can you guess which of the three made us borrow the book? I would like to read your guesses below in the comments. 😛
This week the theme is 1 hit wonder. I’m choosing Don’t say you love me by M2M. Do you remember listening to this group back in 2000s.
1. I keep putting off making a photobook for Tiger girl. I can’t put it off any longer as the voucher expires on 25th April which is 2 days time!!
2. What is your current weather?
Wet and humid.
3. What is the nicest room in your house?
It would be the kitchen as it is the least cluttered room in the house at the moment. It also has all my fancy gadgets (toys) in it 😛
4. What jewelry do you never take off?
My wedding band. The only exception was before delivering the 3 kids as no jewellery was allowed during the C-sections which I had to go through.
5. Do you eat a snack before bed?
No. I’m actively trying to lose weight so no snacking for me.

Thanks for sharing your tunage this week. I can’t recall this song or the group. Wow. Interesting though.

New song to me. My weather today is hot and dry. In a few days it is going to be hot and humid. Have a great day!

nice, but no, I don’t know this group.

I’m dying to find out who wanted you to borrow that book! I’m giggling about it… 😉
Great song, Dominique! Thanks for sharing! 🙂

It was the baby girl who took the book for us to read. A bit too smart for a 20 mth old.

I’m going to guess it’s Tiger boy 🙂
Just guessing.
Weather here is nice this week. cool. windy. so weird. Last week was humid and miserable.
Love the music!
Happy Weekend!

You are half right. It was the 20mth old Tiger Girl who took the book.

Nope, never heard that song before, and my guess is Monkey boy. Maybe he’s trying to figure girls out or maybe he thinks he’s helping you. Kids logic is totally unexplainable sometimes. Thanks for sharing and hope you had fun too. See you next week. Can’t wait to hear who really picked out that book. heheheh

@Xmasdolly,
The girl picked out the book herself. 🙂 Surprising isn’t it.
April 24, 2012 @ 10:08 am
I guess Monkey Boy cause he has mature thinking, a great helper to you and the leader of his siblings

@Shook,
Monkey boy has been a great helper but he didn’t choose the book. Tiger girl did 🙂

Does she recognise the words on the book?
April 25, 2012 @ 10:38 am
I think she recognizes the pictures more then words at this stage.
April 25, 2012 @ 12:57 pm
So, she picked that book by chance.
Does she pick the book she wants you to read to her when you bring her to library?
April 24, 2012 @ 5:24 pm
My final answer is A. Monkey Boy! That’s just too funny your youngsters bringing you a book on how to raise girls. The things kids do, huh? Great new song you’ve put up this week. It’s such a pleasure to see what others bring aboard the Love Train each week. Have an excellent week!

@Cathy,
Nope it was Tiger girl herself. A bit too smart for a 20mth old.
April 24, 2012 @ 9:19 pm
Smart little 20-month-old! She’s not subtle at all is she! 🙂 Although, I’m sure that you’re doing a wonderful job raising your little ones. I think if we close our eyes and listen to our mama-guts, they have far more to teach us than any book can capture.
April 24, 2012 @ 11:28 pm
What a cheeky little 20 month old! How cute that she picked out the book. Thanks so much for sharing this cute story.
April 25, 2012 @ 9:58 pm
Well, I was going to say Doggie Boy picked out the book, being the middle child, but I see from your answers that your daughter picked it out herself – too funny.
As for your song, I have never heard that one before so thanks for sharing something new.
Hope you are having a great week.
