milk or susu??

an interesting conversation with my little missy this morning.

every morning, i ask her whether she wants any  milk  for breakfast ..and she wud normally say "at home it is susu, at school it is milk". but this morning there's a bit of a twist

she said "mummy, susu is milk. susu is in malay and milk is in english".
then i said to her " susu it shall be because you are malay".
and she said "no, i'm NOT malay;  i'm english!" waaahh sudah lebey ini budak omputih celup..
and i said "no you are not english, you are malay".
she was adamant "but i am english"
then i reasoned out with her "mummy and daddy and kakak are malay, it doesnt make sense if you say you are english"
at last she said "i am malay" and gave me a big hug..aaahhh lega mak dia ...
