They move so fast and they definitely have their own minds.
“No Maksu, I don’t want to kiss you right now because I’m busy with my dinosaur.”
“Ok fine. Maksu’s favourite little niece, will you give me a kiss?”
Niece looks at me and goes, “Noooo.”

Brutally honest.
This duo is definitely a handful now. When one screams, the other screams louder. When one runs, the other runs faster. Haiyo.
One time, we turned our backs for a second and found them here.
Their grandmother freaked out.
My sister went to their report card day recently and she said the teacher had a lot to say about Nephew.
“He doesn’t take instructions well. He has a wild imagination and he does things his way and tells you why he’s doing it.”
She wanted to be one of those annoying moms who think their kids are golden, but this time, she just nodded. Yep, that’s my son alright, she thought. Haha.
My nephew’s imagination is just crazy wild. He can come up with stories on the spot about dinosaurs and animals and he’ll answer any of your questions with surprising wit. You can’t even scold him because it’s sometimes so funny or it makes total sense what he says.
One time, he had a task in school. There were 2 pictures, a boy making a mess in his house and a boy vacuuming the floor. All the kids were asked to colour which one is the good boy. All the kids coloured the vacuum boy, except Nephew who drew some stars instead.
“Why are you drawing?” The teacher asked him.
“I’m giving the boy stars because he’s doing a good job vacuuming, Teacher!”
And he said it with utmost excitement and sincerity, it would break your heart to tell him to stop drawing stars.
Any moms who have experienced imaginative children like Nephew??
You nephew is super genius! Treat him well. And learn how to deal with him. If not he will be a different person. MY sister was like him but well still like him I would say. Hahahah!
Try watch this movie by Amir Khan maybe it would help you and his mom to know him better 😉

Your newphew thinks out of the box, vivy! Hes good! 😀
they sound so cute the way they communicate…like adults and not the silly baby talks thing. your sister and you all must have brought them up by communicating with them like they are not a child…i like adore people who bring up their kids like that. i hope to do the same some day when i have my kids.

oh he is totally like my son… tell your sister I know how she feels. Strong willed child. We need to have a little more patience and few steps in front to manage them.
your nephew shows signs of great creativity. sometimes creativity comes naturally but if taken a wrong step(s) then his creativity will be inhibited. instead, help him develop his creativity. many parents failed to see the importance of creativity but creativity is actually beneficial for the child’s future. look up for child’s creativity. its under psychology section 🙂
he reminds me of jolie pitt’s shiloh! a very very expressive, strong willed children. i think what us moms have to do is just to reason with them, open up space for some discussion, let them have their views, and let them consider our views. these kind of children is really brilliant. and if you take the wrong move, you’ll defo shut them off. he’s gifted, put it to a good use. channel it to your business viv. ask him what did he think of your invention if any. your sister’s lucky!
Well kids say the dardest thing but nowadays the brilliant thing.they can do,talk,ask juz abt anything.
one fine morning when we were in a car heading fr bfast,my 4 yr old dotter asked me ‘mama..kak ros sihat tak?’ And I was like ‘ok rasanye xde jiran sedara mara nama kak ros’ so I asked her ‘kak ros yg mana dik’..her answer was ‘alaaaa kak rosss, yg dlm upin ipin tuuuuuu’

I agree with nurhadi zainol. if a child has trouble focusing AND executing instructions he might just need some extra care.
child at this time could be so entertaining 😉
ur nephew must be a gifted child.. let him experience things however, they need to be monitored cuz some gifted child can’t seem to see boundaries (if they were not monitored) – my friend finds it is quite challenging to raise a gifted child cuz they argues and they want reasons for EVERYTHING!
Exactly like my little cousin. Now he’s 14 but still act differently than the other kids at his age. But he’s the one who always make us laugh everytime he answers our questions. As you said, it just “so funny or it makes total sense” 😀
that’s really adorable. imaginations are great imo ~ foundations to creativity 🙂
Yap. Gifted and need special care. Try to do some search on the net about handling gifted children
clever! lain dari yg lain pemikiran dia…boleh polish lagi ni

tengoklah anak buah saper?…huhuuhuh.
my nephew had to color a bag for kindy, everybody colored it . he drew little aliens and robots, the compartments were little rooms. the whole bag’s general outline was a spaceship. *amazed*
my niece… she once draw a pool with no people inside the pic. so her mom asked, “where’s everybody?” her answer “everybody’s in the pool la mummy”..so the mummy said, “we should at least see their head” and she just said “everybody dive, how to see the heads?”.. and I guess she was 4 or 5 at that time. She would always draw something extra in any drawings..we called her ‘drama queen’
