mun thoo fai thee foe

Counting is super fun. I say numbers in the order I wish. It is exciting that way as you can keep people guessing about the number you are going to say next. I have been putting up a fight to save my creativity from my parents who are trying to initiate me into their cult of saying numbers in a particular order all the time.

Did you know that saying numbers before you jump is good for you as it helps in smooth landing? :) This is how I play this game. thee, fai, mun, thoo and get down carefully from the chair or couch :) yeah, this is how I jump!

mun thoo fai is all you need to count. Why bother learning more? I can count all the pieces of my Lego block set using mun thoo fai. I have lost a lot of pieces while playing but my ammA does not know! You want to know how? Simple, I count the blocks while putting it back into the box after I have played. There are only fai blocks every time I count! ammA will never know about the missing pieces though I have not planned for the day when there will be less than fai pieces...
