[extracted from Cambridge online dictionary]

Zhirui is indeed a mature toddler. Sounds contradicting? hee.. yes, I mean it, she is a mature toddler. :) For one, she knows the humility (恥).

Since the day Mummy bought her the 'Little Mr and Miss' characters panties, little Zhirui has been pretty keen in wearing them. So much so that she didn't want to wear any shorts/skirt over them. Daddy says she is 'super girl'. :D kakaka..

As we were preparing to leave the house one morning, Zhirui, proudly in her panties, refused to wear her shorts. "Shame shame, liu liu xiao..." But no matter how much we explain what the appropriate 'gai gai' attire should be, she insisted being little super girl.

Then Daddy said," O.. if you don't wear shorts, auntie will laugh at you.." Just at this point in time, a neighbour pass by. Guess she overheard our conversation with ya tou and said, "O.. shame shame.. girl girl didn't wear shorts." Zhirui immediately turned into a cooperative child and wore her shorts.

Two days later, super girl reappeared and stood firm in wearing her panties without shorts. In the midst of the struggle, a familar sound came. It's the opening noise of Auntie Miah's gate. "O! Auntie is coming out! She is going to laugh at Zhirui for not wearing her shorts." Wow, I've never seen such swift trotters. She slotted her legs into the shorts within split seconds and was done before Auntie reached our door.

Haha.. my little ya tou.. you do know how to save your face. Very smart! :P
