Grace and Her "POWER" English..

 
These days, Grace expresses herself very well, so well that often passerby will stop and ask if she's already 4yo..
  
She is able to use words like drizzling, heavy showers, thunderstorm to describe the rain; wonderful, fantastic, amazing instead of the usual nice; lovely instead of just cute or pretty etc.. 
  
Of cos, as much as we like her to learn to speak proper english, she is also picking up the yi-gee (is it), huh?, hor, lah, loh, leh.. 
  
And, although she's able to express and speak up, her words are sometimes not too clear and it will make us laugh until tears flow out.. For example : 
yi-gee = is it, 
Mc-don-ne-ner = McDonalds
Hun-gee = hungry
key-not = cannot
  
Oh, but the down side of it, she can now talk from Bedok to Jurong and back without stopping!!  And if we choose to ignore, she will go "mummy, mummy, mummy, then mom, mom, talk to me leh, talk to me pleassssseee... mummy, mummy i love you so much leh, talk to me pleassseee..."  And then she will attempt to unbuckle her car seat to climb out and offer my a kiss hoping i will not ignore her.. 
  
Poor ears just cannot have a break at times.. :P
