Big Eyes

Mum: Jackie, you are pretty.
Jackie: But Jiejie's (her sister) and Chloe's (her cousin) face are nicer.
Mum: Huh?
Jackie: They have very big eyes, I have very small eyes.
Mum: Your small eyes are very pretty!
Jackie: But big eyes can see more things.

Please Don't Sleep

Mum dozed off while sitting next to Jackie who is eating her snack.
Jackie: Ahhhh! (a sudden hysterical cry)
Mum got jolted out of her slumber: What what, what happened?
Jackie: I'm very scared. When you fall asleep, I feel like I am all alone at home.

Naughty Boys

Jackie: I like Yiming. (Note: Yiming is Jackie's friend in the childcare centre.)
Mum: Oh, any reason for liking him?
Jackie: He is naughty. I like all the naughty boys.
Mum: Okay, but why?
Jackie: Naughty boys have nice faces.
Mum: Hahaha...hmmmm, your boy cousins, who do you like most.
Jackie: Cannot tell, otherwise they will complain.

Number 10 is Scared

Jerrie: Solve this riddle. Why is 10 scared?
Mum: No idea, why?
Jerrie: Because 7 ate 9.
Mum: Hahaha
Jackie: I know why, because 10 is a big number, big numbers have to be alone so 10 is scared.

Mum’s Note: Jiejie (Jackie’s sister) is 10 year-old, and sometimes she stays at home alone.

My Favourite Number

Jackie: Mum, do you know what is my favourite number?
Mum: No...
Jackie: Guess
Mum: Duno
Jackie: Number seven
Mum: Really, why?
Jackie: Because I like to watch the 7 o'clock TV programmes.
