" I didn't break it, it came off by itself ! "

I bought this globe for Nicole. She was all excited at the sight of a rotatable "ball". Below happened when I was in the bedroom. Lawrence related the incident to me.

Nicole was happily turning and twisting the globe and all of a sudden it went "clak clak", the globe detached from the holder! She was very nervous, thinking that it was broken. Quickly, she ran to Lawrence.

Nic " Papa, this thing came off. Can you fix it back? You are so strong. I am sure you can do it"

Lawr " Oh oh, what did you do, Nicole? Mommy is going to be upset with you"

Nic " I didnt do anything, it just came off by itself. See, you have muscles, I am sure you can fix it" (trying very hard to butter Lawrence up. We all know that papa doesn't have strong biceps, at least not distinctively visible....heehee:)

It was just so hilarious! Indeed, it was an easy fix for an adult but it was certainly beyond reach for a 4-year-old. Nicole has her own way of getting things done, it seems!

hmmmm...I wonder... either you have a super fierce face when you are angry or the punishment you give is normally hard to bear for little Nicole....

Wonder what she will say to you if her daddy wasn't there to cover up her mess.
