Open Letter to My Son – Why don’t you just go watch TV

Dear Miki,

You are cute!

Yeah, I just wanna tell you that… because you always manage to make me melt. You have the ability to make me scream with anger too, but the next moment after the atomic bomb from inside my head exploded, you heal me back again with you cheeky antics.

I love you very much kid! Now you are 2 years and 5 months old. Very small you are but very smart and manipulative. You always have me wrapped around your finger to all of your advantages.

Miki,

I have the time to write this down because you have found a new hobby that keeps you so occupied I don’t only manage to blog, I also get to shampoo my hair.Yeah, the clingy time has passed now you are much more interested in the TV.

To watch Spongebob Squarepant!

Sing it! Who lives in a pinneapple under the sea? SpongeBob SquarePants!
Absorbent and yellow and porous is he? SpongeBob SquarePants!

Sorry..I…just… can’t…get… that…song… outta…my..head…

Miki, I always let you have as much as fun as you want with the show not because the awfully annoying, dreadfully irritating, despicably nasal butΒ  hilariously funny yellow absorbent creature WILL EVER BE A GOOD INFLUENCE but what the hell, you have been speaking English lately!

You are learning well, that’s awesome! Who cares who the teacher is… Not all teachers are nice ok! Like have you not seen Karate Kid?

Ok, I know it’s not fair to let an absurd cartoon character take my place in introducing you to your second language but hey! you gave me the e.p.i.s.i.o.t.o.m.y!! so we are even ok, baby?!

Here are pictures of different styles of you concentrating on Spongebob.

The “Gosh I can see Patrick’s nose from here!” style.


The “Why is this pillow so hard, oh it’s my Daddy’s leg” style

The ” I am not taking my eyes off Mr Krabs even when my Mom asks me to pose for picture” style.

The “Minum Susu while Menonggeng and see Spongebob flips Krabby Patties” style.

The “Suspense giler Spongebob jumpa hantu robot kat Kedai Toys maka aku menyorok belakang meja” style.

Miki, I liked to watch this cartoon myself but now I rather watch you watching it. It’s really funny of you but I like the fact that you can understand a whole lot of stuff going on in that show even when they are in English. I want you to continue telling the story back to me in you own words because it really reflects your understanding and analytical thinking. But the funniest thing is when you get really nervous at the suspense parts in the show started to hide behind the couch or like the picture above, behind the leg on my coffee table.

Over ok? Tu katun je! takyah nak feeling-feeling bagai!

Miki, I am not gonna be hard on you. I think you are such an awesome kid. You are gonna have your childhood the fun way. You are a baby, so I am gonna let you be a baby.

Enjoy your life kid, Mummy and Daddy loves you very much! Be good!

Love,
Mummy

ps – Patrick doesn’t have a nose
