sharp memory
monday nights belong to mommy. it's the time when one channel here shows u.s. tv series from 6pm in two languages, in english and german - i watch the german version... not! :p anyways, since i should rule the telly from 6pm on mondays, i try to avoid the cartoon network channel because leaving it becomes a challenge. but last monday, i had that accident. kuya franco was watching scooby doo and it was time for desperate housewives. i took the remote from him and told him mommy needs to watch tonight. it took a lot of convincing and strong self-control and trust for him to hand me the remote and give in to what i said. it helped that i told him that after mommy's show, we will go back to his. so we peacefully watched dh and then came the credits. me & hubby were in the dining area when the credits was running, franco saw this and called to us: "mommy, it's finished!". so i said: "ok" without doing anything. but then he said: "it's time for scooby doo!" - i totally forgot about what i told him - that he can watch his show after mine. i hope he keep that sharp memory and be smart until he goes to school and grows up. for now, i have to be careful of what i promise him... :) |
