Funny?

We are eating: potato, string beans with onions and meat juice. I only like the onions. My mama is ignoring me a bit. But then she is finished with her food and we play the game that is called 'hapje' (mouth bite).

Sit still! my mama says, Don't stand in your chair! Don't lean in your plate! And we are happy eating onions - I notice the sneaky beans she puts in, but I pretend not to see. And then! Suddenly! My plate is on the floor, potato, and meat juice everywhere. Hmmm. my mama says. This is not funny, Ces. And while she is cleaning, I keep repeating: Funny! Funny! Funny!

I think mama doesn't find it so funny...
