Salah Intepritasi Atau Kreatif Dalam Mengintepritasi?

We don't know if we've overused this phase, but it looks like Eirsa has taken this further than our original intention to a funny we-don't-know-what to-say situation.

When Eivie intentionally/unintentionally hit Eirsa, knowing that the physical impact is not that bad, we'll usually go, "It's ok Eirsa. Sikit je, tak sakit kan?" But of course soon after that we'll tell Eivie not to repeat the same thing in front of Eirsa, to support the point that it's not ok to hit each other. The purpose is clear : to let Eirsa know that it Eivie might not have the intention to hurt her and that siblings do fight.

We sometimes also tell her that "It's ok, sikit je." whenever she falls down (yang jenis sikit-sikit tu), so that she could get up, buckle up and don't get upset/demotivated about it.

"Sikit je."

But seems like Eirsa has taken it into a whole new "Sikit je." level.

Yesterday Papa caught her playing with water sprayer for whatever experiment that she's up to. Papa almost slipped when stepping on the small pools of water created from her experiment. Papa asked what was she doing. And she said, "Tak pe, sikit je."

So sebenarnya nak marah ke nak gelak ni?

Ini sebenarnya bukan pertama kali Eirsa mensikitjekan perbuatan dia yang kami tegur. Dah beberapa insiden yang dia mensikitjekan mak bapak dia ni, ended up kitaorg gelak je.

Haih. Anak... Anak... :D

So yes, it's time to explain to her the different between "It's ok, tak pe, sikit je." versus "No, it's not ok but we are not angry at you and you should not do it again."

Saloma ni lah yang selalu menggelikan hati kami dengan kata-katanya.

Footnote : Dealing with a 1.5 yo and a 4.5 yo is amusing in their very own way. I would say, most of the time Eivie amuses us with her actions while Eirsa, with her words. Precious.

Musim

Yang paling sebak adalah bila tengok anak letih tak bermaya, badan menanggung sakit.

Eivie demam secara terus-menerus dari sabtu malam, sampai ke pagi ni ha. Ubat makan tahan beberapa jam je, seharian tak makan dan minum sangat, letiiiih je. Badan memang sentiasa panas. Dah bagi ubat, mandikan, sentiasa basahkan kepala, tetap tak kekal kebah. Aku dah masukkan ubat buntut (Voren) dan dah suapkan madu campur lemon malam tadi pun (bagi elok sikit tekak), pagi ni berbalik semula demamnya. Sepanjang malam tidur dengan nafas berbunyi. Sepanjang malam juga aku ni macamkan tidur macamkan tak. Bukan apa, aku takut kalau terlelap dan suhu badan Eivie naik tinggi dan aku tak perasan. Ear thermometer aku dah salah letak memanglah takkan jumpa masa kau nak pakai, kan. Thermometer yang bubuh kat ketiak tu, masa sebelum tidur kami guna, ok, masa aku terjaga pukul 2 pagi dah out, habis bateri. Mau tak susah hati aku.

Batuk masih sikit tapi dada dah berbunyi. Pernafasan pun berbunyi. Weezhing, istilah perubatannya. Memang pagi tadi kena bawak pergi Klinik Altaf (so far our most fave paediatrician. Tulis nama jam 9, tu dia dah 5 orang lebih awal dari kami. Jam 10.30 baru dapat jumpa doktor. Dan Dr. Altaf, seperti biasa, memang menyenangkan dan meyakinkan.

Suhu badan pagi tadi setelah dibasahkan kepala adalah 37.9. Dr. Altaf tak sebut pasal jangkitan paru-paru, tapi laluan pernafasan dah bengkak, juga bengkak pada peti suara. Degupan jantung kencang dek saluran pernafasan lebih sempit dari biasa.

Dr. Altaf mencadangkan sesi nebulizing 7 minit HANYA JIKA Eivie tak meronta dan meraung. Tahukah anda sekiranya kanak-kanak dengan di-neb-kan dan meraung, peti suara kanak-kanak akan membengkak? Nasib baik kali ni Eivie ok, HANYA SELEPAS disogokkan dengan iPad. 

Oleh itu, rawatan nebulizer susulan di klinik pada petang nanti, yang diselangselikan dengan makan 4 jenis ubat dan evohaler melalui corong pernafasan di rumah.



Dr. Altaf suruh monitor progress sampai pagi esok dan jika keadaan wheezing dan demam masih sama, perlu dimasukkan ke hospital untuk rawatan lanjut.

Aku suka pendekatan macam ni; cuba dulu dan jika tak berjaya, baru ke hospital. Kalau pergi klinik panel yang biasa tadi, berkemungkinan besar aku bukak mulut je doktor dah tulis surat rujukan untuk masuk hospital, macam kes lepas.

Sayang mommy, get well soon ya!

Jari Menjadi Mangsa Dipersalahkan Jika 'Typo'

This was an experiment by my angels and I. Showed how chronic our typos when we were being honest with the relationship between our good chubby thumbs and the touchscreen keyboard.







But it was fun!!
