"Wae Ha Muh Nee" & "Wae Ha Buh Jee"
This past Saturday my parents babysat Nathan for the first time ever. Dan and I had a bowling date with our church. It's funny because in all the years we've been together, we never went bowling! The last time I bowled was over 10 years ago in college...I actually took a bowling class to fulfill one of my gym requirements. We bowled 3 games and we both hit over 100 in our 2nd game...not bad, huh?!! Boy, my arms are killing me!
Dan's parents couldn't babysit, so I was really nervous about asking my parents to watch him for 3 hrs (especially since this was the first time). Turns out I had nothing to worry about. Nathan had a great time with my mom and ate really well. He didn't even cry for us when we left and was really happy to see us when we returned. We've been trying to teach him the difference between my parents and Dan's parents (in Korean, we add the word "Wae" to distinguish the mother's side). He picked it up very quickly and knows to call my parents "Wae Ha Muh Nee" and "Wae Ha Buh Jee". He can't quite properly pronounce grandmother and grandfather correctly in Korean (it's supposed to be "Hal Muh Nee" and "Hal Ah Buh Jee"). It was so cute because he saw a family portrait in their family room and started calling everybody "Wae Uncle", "Wae Eee Moh", "Wae Mommy", etc. He's such the little comedian.
