Nanny McPhee

Assalamualaikum,


hye, i'm gonna share my priceless experiences in dealing with lil adam..babysitting a 2 years old toddler is not an easy job. i fail..luckily, i've my sister with me.we take turn to control him. he will sleep for about 3 to 4 hours in the morning but with condition..jaga buai..the worst part is during the afternoon. he insists to play outside with his friends.just imagine, he refuses to play with his friend but prefer those who is older and big than him..he wakes up and asks us for food and air tebu(air biasa)..then, he will try to find out his ummi and will start crying as his ummi has gone for working..the next thing that we must do to stop him from crying is..open the door and let him out.he will call his bestie, pah and if pah doesn't hear him calling her, he will start  crying and asking me to open the gate..owh no no...no way.i'm not going to let him out at 3 pm..its too hot for me and adam too.sometimes, i've  no choice..i'll beg pah to play with him..i really have no choice as adam will continue throwing his tantrum unless he has someone to play with him.he is still too young to play outside alone. once you open the gate.he will straightly go to the opposite house.sometimes he will stop in the middle of the road.its totally not safe for him as there's lots of motorcycles and cars that are using the road..he still too young to differentiate between safe and dangerous. he just think about happy, play, friends, toys etc. he just follow his steps without considering the dangerous coming. that's why we refuse to open the gate and sometimes we just leave him alone crying for no reason in front of the door. he's good at making jokes, crying, talking and everything. adam is quite choosy.seeing him screaming and laughing is my happiness. that's why they call me pengusik..haha..he is quite close with my sister as compared to me as i always control him from doing anything than he loves such as playing outside the gate..i just let him playing around the house as i'm not strong enough to follow him.he's fast than me ok.


here's our conversation (when i beg pah to play with adam inside the house)


me: adam, bring pah inside..play with her.pah, 
      play with adam inside ek.
adam: jom aa..acuk
pah: masa yang ditunggu2..luckily, she loves playing with adam. 
me:alhamdulillah


pah is 4 whereas adam is nearly 2..but he loves playing with pah as he actually loves playing with anyone who is older than him. 


the third day
i let adam play tangkap2 ikan..i really didn't have energy to wait for him outside and we shuffled.my sister took charge of him while i was having a short nap.he ended up, poured half bottle of the fish food in the vase.the next day, all the fish were found dead. my sis idea was so crazy.she let adam catcht the dead fish and held the fish in his hand.adam didn't just hold but also picit..eeee...adam didn't only kill the fish but also harrasing them.pity them.but adam's still too young kan..kalau dah besar..alamat kena cubit.


the last day
i'm alone as my sister had to go back early as she needed to prepare herself for the next trip to Sabah. i'm alone to take care of the little munchkin.it's not an easy job. i was so blessed that he slept all the morning. he woke up when his ummi was around. but,  his ummi left him with me in the afternoon.he insisted to be outside playing with his friends..his big friends..they're all 12-4..adam was just 2..aiyaa..pening..when i stopped him from running towards the road..he'll scream on top of his lungs.malu ohh kat neighbours. luckily, pah was so kind to help me. i invited her to play inside of my sis's house with adam..i jerat guna cd barney&friends.i said..pah lets go inside watching barney's cd with us..she nodded..yeehaa..then, adam walked inside by himself..pheww.lega..it's not stop there. pah decided to go home as she realized that i was lying to her..i didn't wanna watch that short movie as my lil sis, bil n me wanted to watch drama.ngehehe..pity pah..i' so sorry..the minute pah stepped outside..adam threw his tantrum again..he wanted to follow pah..luckily, my bro in law was around. he took adam for jalan2..then only, i could breath again..




being a mother is not an easy job. babysitting adam for just about 1 week makes me feel half crazy..just imagine how a mother of 12 children deal with her children..each children has different behaviors and just imagine a mother needs to understand bout 12 different behaviors.
