age ain't nothing but a number

When Kowi turned three, Kuya decided to test her if she knew that she was, in fact, three years old.

Kuya said, "How old are you, Kowi?"

"I'm three," she said while holding out three fingers for everyone to see.

"Do you know how old I am?" Kuya asked on.

Kowi held out three fingers on each hand. "Six," she said.

At this point, I decided to join in. "How about me? How old am I, Kowi?"

In deep thought, she answered. "You're so old, mommy. You are already 12."

Couldn't help but laugh and secretly wish it were true. Haay...
