🙈 Where Is Monkey-B? 🙊 A Dad's Endless Quest To Find His Daughter 🕵️♂️
A good portion of my days are spent searching for my youngest daughter Monkey-B, and even though we live in a one-room studio apartment, she is somehow easy to lose track of.
🌽 The Most Obvious Place 🚴♀️
Many of you know that Monkey-B has recently learned to cycle, so the most obvious location to search for her is outside our room and to the left or right. If there is a pink bicycle rolling around with a young pilot trying to doubletask by eating corn on the cob as well, it's probably Monkey-B.
🛺 If The Kickstand Is Down...
When I've already scanned the horizon and can't find my daughter anywhere, and her bike is outside the door, the next location would be the back of the Ape, which turns out to be a cozy and cool reading nook during the day, complete with comfy rugs and plenty of privacy. I usually find her reading a picture dictionary or Harry Potter.
Maybe She's Busy Eating Roadside Plants 🌿
Sometimes when I haven't seen my daughter in over an hour, there's also a chance she might be eating some plants a stranger gave her. I'm being a bit sarcastic of course, but we are often given a mangoes and other random fruits, veggies, herbs by total strangers who just happen to be in the parking lot. Sometimes all you got to do is just be outside to score some free food.
Sometimes Helping 🧼
There are occasions where the reason I go to look for Monkey-B to ask her to do something, and it turns out she's already doing it. In this case she needed to help big sister with the dishes, and much to my surprise, I found my cheeky little Monkey-B in the kitchen, which is actually the same room as my office and bedroom.

I like the title 😁 Whenever I am at my mom's house, my youngest daughter will always goes missing. Sometimes she plays at the chicken coop, sometimes at the river, and most of the time at the cat house.
She is certainly a curious one, and she likes to find little nooks and crannies when she reads. I was very much the same when I was young. Today she was missing and I found her with bloody knees and crying 😂.
They are so understanding at such young age I must say. Helping parents doing housework and so on. You really guided them well sir.
Thank you. Of course sometimes they are stubborn, but that is normal for any kid. All in all they are very well-behaved girls.
And this reminds me that 10 years ago when I'm still a teenager by that time. But now completely different.
Your daughters are cute my friend @justinparke, and if I see from the photo they both are also very similar to their mother. And sometimes it's their age, children become very active in playing, so as parents we also have to be extra strict in supervising them haha... 😁😁
You're right, sometimes they play too rough with each other, and one of them always ends up crying. It is good to check on them once in a while to make sure they aren't doing anything too extreme 🤸.
Monkey-B doesn't want to just stay in the corner and do nothing. That's great monkey-B.
She is very active to say the least, and I think we're very similar in that regard, always on the hunt for something for something interesting.
Always monkeying around, isn't she? Cute short post and nice pictures :<)
Thanks knappe man, I keep trying to get into the habit of posting every day, and this is the style of post that could make this possible. However, the inner perfectionist in me tends to spend way too much time on a post, sometimes two days, and that just doesn't line up with the the amount of posting rewards I earn.
My self-imposed goal as of late is to achieve the Hivebuzz badge for posting every day for a whole month. Monkey-B said if we get the land, she'll post every other day from the @kidsisters account.
it's quite exciting when reading the contents of your post, about your favorite daughter, monkey-B
the nature of children is always like that, if they often fight it will end in tears, but an older brother has to give in a lot to his younger brother, because a younger brother wants a lot.
but it all did not escape our monitoring as parents,
I am just glad no medical care was needed, because the are where we live is very remote and underserved. Even something like a broken arm would be a really big problem here, something we wouldn't want to get fixed locally.
Congratulations @justinparke! You have completed the following achievement on the Hive blockchain and have been rewarded with new badge(s):
Your next payout target is 17000 HP.

After reading your post until it was finished, I remembered my childhood when I was naughty and often disappeared from home to play in the rain with friends or run away from work ordered by my parents, but when I became a parent like now, I know exactly what to do when my child is being naughty.
Having naughty and cunning children sometimes makes us a humorous person by seeing their behavior.
Your son is almost the same age as mine.
Haha, it's good to never forget the way we were when we were kids, it definitely helps to be an understanding and patient parent. We have two daughters by the way, but no sons.
I am impressed that many good people in Cambodia share fruits and vegetables and other foods.
I like that part of the culture, even very poor people will still share whatever they have. I do find it is often this way everywhere in the world, perhaps just more so in Cambodia.
I see your child is eating fruit looks very delicious
I have lived here 12 years and never seen the tiny tree fruit she was eating. It was new to Monkey-B too, but my wife was familiar with it.
I've never seen that fruit either, if I may know how it tastes
Daily mission and quest , where is Monkey-B ? It was so cool never ending mission . This make my day . :). !PIZZA
Thank you my friend, Monkey-B is a handful, but a very humorous daughter.

Monkey B sounds a bit mischievous, or perhaps she just wants to explore the world around her. Stay safe Monkey B
Mischievous sometimes, playful and humorous always, a lot like me when I was young.
when they go to school or go by bicycle.
Monkey-B just recently began riding her bike to school, but only with big sister watching over her.
That part of stranger gave weird plant for monkey to eat almost scares the crap out of my pee hole. Will be an entirely different ending if that happened in Kuala Lumpur. I had to keep on reminding my kids to NOT take anything and everything a stranger has to offer. If anyone trying to approach, turn around scream and run back to safety. May sounded a little over protecting, but can never be too careful with this kinda shitty society of an urban city where kidneys are worth 50k.
Haha, I was a bit unsettled, but in Cambodia this is normal. I once had a neighbor give me half a rotten cabbage because he heard I was vegetarian. I kindly composted it for him. I definitely wouldn't encourage to eat plants from strangers without being at home with us, but the wife approved it, so ya' know.
There were some recent stories in Cambodia about Chinese blood slaves in Sihanoukville. There are no blood banks in Cambodia, so when you have a surgery it is your responsibility to find a blood donor or source to provide your surgeon with. The mainland Chinese, with their science and ruthless business practices, have obviously exploited the black market potential of this situation.
It looks like they were flying poor uneducated Chinese citizens here, then taking them straight to an apartment that became their prison. A lot of these poor folks don't even speak Mandarin, English, or Khmer, so they wouldn't even know what to do or where to go if they broke free.
