"Mummy, I want naik atas." (Mummy, I want to go upstairs.)
"No, cannot, we have to wait for McDonalds to come."
"Huh..." she gave me a skeptical look, "Old Macdonald?"
"Yes, McDonalds is coming with mamam." (food)
"Old MacDonald ade mamam?"
"Not Old MacDonald, McDonalds. McDonalds nak datang!" (is coming)
"Old Macdonald had a farm datang?"
Just then the McDonalds delivery guy arrives at the gate, and I go out to pay him. Salma stands at the front door to get a better look, and I hear her say, "Oh! Old Macdonald!! Mamam!"
She finally got that it was McDonalds, but still insisted on calling it Old Macdonald...
