These notes are not supposed to put people down, but sometimes it is funny how a person from one culture interprets the conversations and opinions of a person from another. This is one example that happened this past weekend.
The story: Our friends Jonathon and Lisa, their twin boys Samuel and SIlas, their house helper, and their house helper's sister stayed with us for a few days this past week. It was a blast and this is a conversation Bin and Lamphay had with Mirinda one afternoon.
All three are playing with the twin boys.
Mir: This is the perfect size baby. (While holding Silas)
Lamphay: So Samuel's not the perfect size?
Mir: No, well they're about the same size. This is the perfect age for the baby.
Bin: Oh, ok. Which boy is cuter?
Mir: They're both cute.
Lamphay: But which one would you like to take home with you?
Mir: Either one. I like them both!
Bin: I like Samuel more.
Lamphay: I would take Silas home with me. Samuel's naughty.
Mir smiles and thinks "uhhh...ok."
THE END
