Kerenah anak anakku..

Saime just asked me..

* elektrik süpürge niye toz çekmiyor?*
(why doesnt the vacuum cleaner vacums the dust..in another word..why doesnt it work?*

Arghhhhhhhhh..yesterday i tried to vacum the house as well. It didnt work..i checked the vacuum cleaner to see why n the part where the dust or whatever that should go into was like...stuck?? i dunno how she managed it but..i cleared the part as best as i could n still it is not working... i wonder how this woman vacums....arghhhhhhhh.. n she now she is asking me why it doesnt work? she is the one who has been using this machine for the last 3 weeks..n i remember clearly before going to sapanca i even had it sent to the servis shop to clear the stuck parts.. arghhhhhhhhh.....

dont get me wrong..saime is a person with a pure heart..very trustable..if not i would never ever trust her to look after my kids while i go to pazar every thursday.....her problem is her intelligence..if she has any...she had broken or destroyed countless things over the years esp at meşe's ..

anyway..back to the topic..my kids..

Story one

Hatice n baddin were having their dinner earlier on. The menu; köfte (meatball) n spaghetti. Hatice thinks my köfte is fantastic. She just loves my köfte ..or maybe she was just trying to bodek her mom hehehe anyway, she had finished her share of her köfte..there were only the yogurt n spaghetti left on her plate. With that naughty look, her fingers started to move very quietly towards baddin's plate

Baddin saw those naughty fingers...understood what those fingers were meant to do..looked at that one naughty face and said..

*alamazsın*
(u cannot take it)

That naughty face turned to the innocent mom with a sweet pleading face. That sweet look won..oo Gee..why is it that i am the one they always drag into these kinds of things???

The mom turned to the son n said..
*paylaşmaz mısın? Sonra o ağlar*
(wont u share? Else, she will cry)

And the victim slowly passed over a small piece of the köfte to the victor...

Anne: *Abla..baddin teşekkur et de* (say thanks to ur brother)
Hatice: *Teşekkur ederim baddin* (thank u baddin)

And the victim looked at the victor smiling in a meaningful look n said..
*Bir şey değil yok* (no ur welcome to u)

If the victim sued the mother at the court of law, the victim would win the scream of injustice. My only defence is..
1. sharing is good
2. he has got loads of köfte still on his plate..

And the mom of the victim n victor looks sweetly at the juries.. will u sentence me as the guilty counterpart???


Story two

We were in Sapanca. It was lunch time. I was busy in the kitchen. Halil was assigned to make sure baddin was eating his lunch.

Baddin: *Baba..bu su soğuk mu?* (Is this water cold?)
Halil : *Oğlum, herkes aynı suyu içiyor* (Everyone is drinking the same water = meaning the water was not cold)

Baddin took the glass containing his drink n put the glass to his cheek..Test one successful.
He then drank the water. Test two......

Baddin: *baba, bu bardak soğuk ama su sıcak* (the glass is cold but the water is not cold)

He never drank the water again after that..not even touching the glass again.

U see, baddin has this thing about water... he only drinks cold water..(with ice preferably).. ..he washes his hands with cold water....everything using cold water..luckily he never insisted on taking a cold bath..if not....So when he discovered the water was not cold, he refused to drink it.

Yesterday when we were in the playground, him,his sister n his cousins playing under the scorching sun of summer..thirsty. He came to me n asked..

*anne soğuk su var mı?* (do u have cold water?)

when he heard the *no* answer, he refused to drink the water...for that one and a half hour he was very thirsty..but due to his stubbornness..or perhaps him being a spoilt brat.. he never drank even a drop of that not cold water...

Kids huh? mcm mcm kerenah diaorang.. Hatice n baddin.. evet..bu hikaye doğru..bu siz yahuu..belki bir gun bu hikaye okucaksınız.. :0) Size çok seviyorum
