Ben: " Mamma, do you have a baby here" Sambil menunjuk ke bagian perut saya yang memang tumpah keluar karena low waist jeans yang saya pakai saat itu.. Enggak ding.. saya memang tambah beberapa kilo berat badan.

Saya: " No, why.."

Ben: " Because you have big tummy. You are gendut..."

Saya: " Yes, I am."

Ben: " You are gendut but still pretty, pretty and I love you"

Sayapun tersenyum lega sambil memeluk dan mencium Ben dan belum berpikir untuk diet atau olah raga. Dasar pemalas.

Seorang guru memotong lidah muridnya dengan gunting karena konon si murid nggak mau diam. Mungkin kalau hanya sebatas di pikiran sih gak apa-apa tapi kalo bener dilakukan ya.. edan. Beberapa bulan lalu di sebuah TK di Roma seorang guru membungkam muridnya dengan plakban karena terlalu ceriwis. Kalau gak bisa menghadapi tingkah polah anak-anak ya gak usah jadi guru.

ANSA- An Italian elementary school teacher has been charged with cutting the tongue of one of her pupils with a pair of scissors.

Judges said the 22-year-old supply teacher, who was sacked after the incident, would go on trial "very shortly".Prosecutor Marco Ghezzi said the woman, identified only by her initials, R.S., was facing a charge of causing "deliberate bodily harm" after a test established that the deep cut in the pupil's tongue could only have been caused by squeezing the scissors tight.

R.S. would have faced a lesser charge if the test had indicated she had cut the boy accidentally, as she claimed."We still have doubts about the kind of scissors used since the ones the teacher gave us can't cut anything," Ghezzi added.

The February 20 incident in a second-grade classroom in Milan gained front-page headlines and shocked the nation.Television news reports showed the stitched-up tongue of seven-year-old 'Ahmed', the son of Tunisian immigrants.The substitute teacher, who was on her first assignment, admitted cutting the child's tongue but said it was an accident.

The teacher said she had "jokingly" threatened to cutthe "unruly" child's tongue and was mimicking the action witha pair of scissors when the pupil made an unexpected move andcut his tongue on the scissors.

The child was rushed to hospital where he received fivestitches to close the wound.The boy's parents are suing her and the school for moral and material damages.

A lawyer for the family said the child told him thatafter the incident the teacher tried to convince the boy not to tell his mother exactly what happened.

Memang tepat kalau Ben saya sebut kelinci, karena dia memang senang sekali mengunyah sayuran sebagai lalapan terutama wortel dan ketimun . Sayuran lainpun tidak masalah kecuali kacang polong atau sayuran yang dia belum kenal. Di sekolah, sayuran apapun yang disajikan selalu dimakan, entah karena takut sama gurunya atau memang doyan :). Tomat atau bayan yamg dulu kalau ketemu dipiringnya suka dimuntahin, sekarang di lahap begitu saja tanpa ada masalah malah minta tambah.

Ben mulai mengenal sayuran sejak mengenal makanan solid tapi mulai bener-bener makan sewaktu di playgroup, karena di hampir setiap menu ada salad atau sayuran rebus. Sekarang di TK selain sayuran sering menyajikan menu cereal yang di masak berbeda seperti di buat sup, saus untuk pasta atau di bikin perkedel.

Buah-buahan pun Ben suka. Yang paling dia gemari adalah buah persik baik segar ataupun kalengan, mangga, dan pisang...

Dibawah ini Ben sedang menunggu sup labu nya dingin dan sedikit marah waktu diambil photonya. Selamat makan kelinci kecilku..
