Haircut & sense of time ヘアカットと時間の感覚 |
I' mstill trying to catch up with our events....this is about already almost 2 weeks ago....Kiko had a haircut!
ご本人、かなりお気に入りのようです。10センチ以上は切ったかな?
She LOVES it....I think we had 4-5 inches off!
By the way....at what age do you 'get' the sense of time....?
キコは曜日の名前は分かるようになってきてますが、例えば金曜日は月曜日よりずっと先だとかそういう時間の感覚がまだ分からないのです。
だから、うっかり「XXちゃんからお誕生日パーティのお誘いがきたよ〜」なーんて言ってしまうと、大変。。
Kiko is now starting to know the days of the week - but it is mostly just names....for example, she doesn't really get it that Friday is far from Monday...
So if I mistakenly say something like "oh you got an invitation from XX for her birthday party" - I will put myself into trouble....
3週間後だよ〜、、、なーんていっても分からず。。最近は指を折って数えたりしますが、それでも一番遠い時間はまだ「あさって」。。。。
ほぼ毎日、「まだ〜?まだ〜??」となるのです。。
"When? Tomorrow? The day after tomorrow...??"
'No, it's 3 weeks from now '- of course she doesn't take the answer...sometimes she folds her fingers to try to count the days, but the longest time for her is "the day after tomorrow" as of now......
so she ends up asking me the question...."Is it today? Not yet? Tomorrow? The day after tomorrow?"
そしてほぼ毎日私に質問してくること。。。それは自分のお誕生日。
お誕生日はパーティはここでやって、ケーキはこれで、プレゼントはこれが欲しい。お友達はだれちゃんとだれちゃんと、、、とリストは続くのです。。
あの〜キコちゃんのお誕生日はあと8ヶ月先ですよ〜春が来て(もう来た?)夏が来て、秋がきて、ハロウィーンが終わって、ターキー食べたら(感謝祭)来るんだよ〜
と言っても無理。分かんない。まだ。。
And another question that she almost asks me...is her birthday.
"I'm going to have my party here at the gym, then my cake will be like this, and I want this and that for my presents, and I'm going to invite A and B and C....." the list goes on....!
Excuse me, Miss Kiko, your birthday is 8 months away....it has to have spring, and the summer and the fall, and Halloween and we eat turkey(Thanksgiving) then it is your birthday....?
No way....not yet...that's ok.
"Kiko, you just turned 5 and had your birthday!" doesn't cut it....oh well.
最近のヒットは、携帯電話。
き「ママ、携帯買って〜!」
ママ「きこちゃんがもうちょっと大きくなったらね」
き「うん。じゃ、二十歳になったらいい?」
まま「二十歳。。。。?(そんなに待てるのか。。。。?)いいですとも!!」
I try to enjoy her being 5 years old for now...
oh - I have another funny one...
K: "Mommy, can you buy me a cell phone?"
Mom: "A cell phone....? Maybe when you get bigger..."
K: "OK. Can you buy me one when I'm twenty! OK....?"
M : Twenty....? (can you wait that long....??) oh kay...!!! DEAL!
