When Mummy became "Mummy Monster"

It is on purpose that i have never made any posting that captured the moment i become "mummy monster" ---that's is what the older boys called me, whenever i became one!
It doesnt happen that often...i think..... but occasionally when the boys were overboard!

One of the reason why i dont make any posting on my "transformation" is because i am actually writing this blogsite as a journal to my kids, and as far as possible i want them to carry only good memories...but on second thought, the scolding and all is part of growing and parenting as well..so i share some of those bittersweet memories jugak lah!

My boys , i would categorised them as well mannered kids...they are ok, can easily reason with them and make them undersatnd why they can do certain things why they cant on others. They always have open mind, i think most kids have this....as long as we are consistent and do a lot of explaining, we'll be doing just fine!

Being boys and kids in general ...they procastinate on homeworks, playing is their main daily agenda , they throw things, they fight, all sort of tantrums taht you can think of...And me, being an adorable mummy---(batting my eyelashes)..., i am not taht soft spoken type ...i shout, i pinch, i nag, have them grounded...etc..etc....and that is when i became "mummy monster"--just like incredible hulk, there has to be something that triggers the transformation..

And another transformation happened last nite....since the world cup started every evening the boys play football and it has been a week or more they came back just a few minutes before maghrib or on the dot for azan.

so i watched them yesterday from my room....., they came back from the field at 7pm and continued playing at our lawn until azan and not stopping. I told bibik not to let them in....so they stayed outside until 8pm. After maghrib , i gave them one long lecture outside the house and i think the whole taman may have heard me ...

I had dinner with Adib rightafter...he silently eating besides me....then i asked him, "Adib, nak biar along angah tidur luar ke nak panggil dia orang masuk"

Adib : "masuk lah mummy..." --------with his eyes like puss in boots....
so i told him to get them in right after dinner, he immediately jumped off his chair, asked bibik to accompany him , ran outside screaming "along angah, mummy bagi masuk"...

i think this is like 3rd or 4th time , i locked the boys outside. The 1st and 2nd was long time ago...like 1-2 or 3 years back.....I warned them if this thing is to happen again, i want them to play football in the dark at our lorong....just the two of them :)

I wonder how monster mummy looks like because I only have seen the joyful or "neng yatimah" mummy from Kak Long. well...that's one of her best kept secret and only closed family members knows about the secret plus bibik.
