At this very merry-go-round, this very heart wrenching episode took place.
Queenie: Mom, can you put in two dollars, so we can play this?
Me: Ok, let me check if I have the coins. *digging around in my wallet* Oops, sorry, not enough coins.
Queenie, exasperated: Go and work more la! Then you will have more money.
At that point, I wondered why I often wondered whether to work part time or not work, so I could look after them. It clearly meant more to Joquim that I have enough money. Ok, she said it in the spur of the moment. I should not take it so seriously.
But seriously, I'm going back to work tomorrow after the long weekend. Happy, Queenie?
