What is the name of that song?

Reuben: Mummy, can you download the song I sang in class today?
Mummy: What song Reuben?
Reuben: What's the name of that song?
Mummy: Reuben, I wouldn't know what song you sang in class today. You have to tell me the title of the song to download.
Reuben: What's the name of that song? *exasperated*
Mummy: Reuben, if you don't know the name then I wouldn't know! *also exasperated*
Mummy: Can you remember how to sing the song? Or at least some parts of the lyrics? *still exasperated, getting annoyed*
Reuben: something something bird....
Daddy: Wow, that is helpful... so many songs with the word bird, Reuben!
Reuben: *crying hysterically & helplessly* WHAT IS THE NAME OF THAT SONG!
Daddy: Calm down Reuben... Crying is not going to help.

After 5 mins of partly trying to convince Reuben we really need the title of the song to download it and partly trying not to throw him out of the house for being so unreasonable, Mummy had a divine intervention....

Mummy: Wait a minute... Maybe there is really a song called "What is the name of that song?"
Mummy: Wahahahahahahahahaha... You have got to be kidding me!
Reuben: *totally relieved and smiling again*
Did you catch that part that went "something something bird"? wahahahahahhahahah.....

Satay by the Bay

Mummy and Godma decided to meet up at the Children's Playground next to Satay by the Bay today. We were suppose to go there and check out the water playground. We were not very hopeful when we had to wait for 10 mins before getting into the car park. The path to the water playground was also very crowded with pedestrians, cyclist and quite a few joggers.
When we got to the water playground, our greatest fear was realized. It was like Chinatown on CNY eve. It was so crowded Mummy and Godma decided we should come back another day instead. We then walked to Satay by the Bay and sat down for some drinks and snacks. There weren't many options so we decided to have their most popular dish, Satay! As expected, it was bad but we finished all 15 sticks anyway. And while the adults chatted, we kids watched Tom and Jerry on the iPad and didn't give the adults any trouble.

It was threatening to rain so we decided to start walking back to the car. On the way, I managed to scoot around for a bit. It was fun as it was a big place and I could go really fast and show off my scootering skills. We also took some nice pictures with the Singapore Flyer as the backdrop. Mummy promised to bring me back here tomorrow as she will leave office early. I cannot wait to play at the water playground tomorrow.
