Over dinner, Zara picked up a stray rice grain.
\nZara : Do you know it looks like maggot?<\/span>
\nMe : Every rice grain came from the sweat of the farmer, you know.<\/span>
\nZaria (put down her spoon) : What? I’m eating farmer’s sweat?<\/span>
\no.O”
\nMe : It’s a figure of speech Mei. The farmer has to work very hard and under hot sun to plant rice.<\/span>
\nZara : So, farmers use a lot of sun block?<\/span>
\no.O”
\nMe : I don’t think they want to spend money on sun block, because they are not so rich.<\/span>
\nZara : Maybe you should go and donate some sun block to the farmers.<\/span>
\no.O”<\/p>\n

Hubs had asked Zaria not to eat one of the jelly stick that Zara brought back from her school party, telling her all the artificial colouring\/sweetener that it contained etc… She didn’t listen and had it anyway.
\nZaria : Mummy, I think I’m going to die?<\/span>
\nMe : Why?<\/span>
\nZaria : Because I ate the jelly stick.<\/span>
\nMe : You ate it? I thought your daddy already told you not to eat it? Why didn’t you listen to him?<\/span>
\nZaria : Because I don’t want jiejie to be angry with me. After she came back and said, “why you didn’t eat the jelly I gave you? I don’t want to friend you anymore”<\/span> (blame her sister some more o.O )
\nMe : Your jiejie won’t be angry.<\/span>
\nZaria : Now tell me, what am I supposed to do?<\/span>
\nMe : Take some vegetable will help.<\/span>
\nZaria : It won’t help. I need a chemical stronger than that. If I die, who’s going to make you cards? Who’s going to make you laugh? I’m the joker in the house, who will do tricks which you’d never seen before?. … I want to live. If I die, I won’t be able to do the choral speaking in the school on Monday. My school will be very quiet I’m a chatter box in school. What I take to get rid of the poison?<\/span>
\n….. she went on and on…..
\nAnd then she drew this.<\/p>\n

\"Zaria's<\/p>\n

And you would think she would not eat any more of the jelly? The following day, she told me, “I think eating a little will not make me die”<\/span> Before I could say anything, I saw her taking a small bite from another stick of Jelly, and then thew the remainder in the bin. o.O” <\/p>\n
