Shocked!

As we were watching "
Everybody Loves Raymond" on
DVDs yesterday, Little Skywalker was happily
strolling about the house looking for new "stuff" to
play with. J and I will not chase after him unless he went somewhere
out of sight or climbed up the staircase. We think a little bit of
controlled freedom will be better for him. Or else he will feel like a
prisoner at his own house as compared to my parents'.

Suddenly (as you might have seen it coming), he was walking towards J in tears, with both his hands up
held high in the air. I was still in the
dark on what happened as he was playing in the living room, 1-2 meters away from where I
lie down sat. As I was looking for
insects that might have bitten him, J told me that he might had
electrocuted himself on the fingers, as his left
index finger was red (not so clear in photo).
Don't be
too surprised, as he loves to play with
switches. However, we are not stupid enough to let him
stick his fingers into one. He actually got a tiny dose of electrical
shock from the
electric racket thingy that I bought when I declared an
all out war against mosquitoes a month ago. He must have pressed the button while having one of his finger on the "net" and
stung himself.

You'd also be surprise this is
not his first time getting shock treatment from the weapon against mosquitoes. He
kena before some time ago at my
parents' place. I guess he must have
forgotten about it already. He was showing us his fingers (since he can't figure out which one) and
cursing mumbling something continuously while we had to
blow and kiss the tip of his index finger (like a KING!). He also kept
pointing to the culprit "weapon" that caused him cry out loud. Maybe he was
hinting to us that we should get rid of it or have it under the
guillotine!
It was partly
my fault as I left the "weapon" on the cushion so that I can reach it
easily once I spot any blood suckers flying about. Normally I would have left it at a
higher place that is not accessible to Little Skywalker, but I was in a
hunting mode and was waiting for those suckers to
reappear again after they disappeared from my sight when I went
looking for the "weapon.
Lesson learnt... for Little Skywalker and his dumb parent!
