As first time parents-to-be, my hubby and I have a lot of conversations regarding our baby. But the one I am going to share today is a conversation which always makes me smile everytime i am reminded of it.
Last Thursday, October 15, 2009, my partner and i went out on a date. We picked some grocery items and then off we went to have dinner as it was after-work grocery errand. We decided to eat at Greenwich. We reviewed the events of the day and shared our plans for the next day.
Here comes our order, a layer of pizza and value meals. We were having fun eating and all of a sudden i asked " Pag naa na si baby, i-jollibee gihapon nato siya?" (When baby is born, will we bring her/him to jollibee as well?) Glester tenderly looked at me and asked "Asa man diay nimo siya plano dad-on?" (Where are you planning to take the baby?) Without butting an eyelash i answered "Sa library!"(to the library) with all the excitement of an expectant mother visualizing to read to and with her child. Glester's eyes danced in merriment to my confusion then it broke to laughter! still! I did not get it! What's wrong with my answer?!
Amidst his laughter he asked me to review my question, and still adamant i asked "why?is my answer wrong? " And he said "Pagkaon atong istoryahan, library pud naa sa imong hunahuna" (we are talking about food and there your mind goes to the library!) Ouch! crazy me! I broke into laughter and up till now i am not certain whether or not i should be embarrassed. But in the end, i chose to smile over it and be thankful, my husband can laugh on the idiosyncratic turns of my thoughts! :-)
