Blissfully mistaken or Mistaken Bliss?

Mom: (while explaining some technical aspect of touch at the piano)  That's wrong Jadon!

Jadon: (apparently trying to comply?) But I'm enjoying myself playing it wrong!

Accidental Tinglish

JJ & I were discussing my retirement account from work when Jadon asked, "What's TIAA-CREF?"

I explained that it's a financial services company that handles some of our future money.  

He seemed surprised.  "Oh, I'd seen some things from TIAA-CREF lying around from your stuff, & I thought it was something Chinese, like 'Tee-Ah-Ah.'"

He was referring to the song that Evangelina had learned awhile back:

Thi(n)-O*-O*,          

Boe lo ho*.            

Akong gia ti-thau

Boe kut o*

Kut a-kut, Kut a-kut, Kut-tio chit-boe soan-liu-ko*

Hi(n)-a, He(n)-a, chin-chia(n) chhu-bi!

Akong boe chu kiam

Ama boe chu chia(n)

Nng lang sio-pha long-phoa tia(n), long-phoa tia(n), long-phoa tia(n)! 

Hi(n)-a, He(n)-a, chin-chia(n) chhu-bi!

Darkened Sky

Rain's gonna fly

Grandpa grabs the hoe, goes out to dig taro.

Dig a-dig, hoe a-hoe, out comes an eel, well what do you know!

Hee-haw, haw-hee, well that's sure funny as can be!

Grandpa wants to cook the eel with salt

Grandma wants the eel cooked without

The two of them, they don't talk: they just fight & break the wok!

Hee-haw, haw-hee, well that's sure funny as can be!
