\u201cMy kind, as jy met nat hare gaan slaap, gaan jy stinkneus kry, \u201d het my pa altyd gewaarsku. Of hy sou s\u00ea: \u201cas jy l\u00ea en eet, gaan jy horings kry!\u201d<\/p>\n
My ma het weer gewaarsku: \u201cAs jy op \u2019n Sondag naaldwerk doen, steek jy die naald in die Here se oog!\u201d<\/p>\n
So gesels ons anderdag oor die dinge wat ons ouers ons wysgemaak het net om goeie gewoontes en maniere in te skerp. So vertel vriendin Nana dat haar ouers weer beweer het dat hulle bene sal afval as hulle op \u2019n Sondag sou dans. Verbeel jou!<\/p>\n
Sy vertel ook van hulle lewe op \u2019n kleinhoewe buite Alberton. \u201cJong, ek het die taal van daai sifdeur goed geken. As dit stadig en wyd oopgemaak word, en stadig toegaan, dan weet ek dis my pa. Sy lang voetstappe op die plankvloer het dan gevolg. Dan weet jy hoe om te sit en staan. Maar as die sifdeur vinnig oopgemaak word en toeklap, d\u00e1n moet jy spark<\/span>, want dis Ma. Aan haar kort treetjies het jy geweet om omtrent op aandag te staan,\u201d vertel sy al laggend.<\/p>\n Mettertyd het die sifdeur \u2019n paar gate ingekry en die lastige vlie\u00eb het dan so hulle pad gekry tot by die etenstafel. \u201cDit was dan my werk om die vlie\u00eb weg te waai. Jitte, dit was nou vir jou \u2019n jop, hoor! My skouer pyn nou nog van al die gewaai!\u201d<\/p>\n Maar die beste storie oor haar Nana se kinderdae wat sy vertel het, het my laat skater. Sy was die vierde kind van ses. Elkeen het hulle laatmiddag werkies gehad om die diere op die werf te versorg. H\u00e1\u00e1r plig was om daagliks die eiers te gaan uithaal. <\/p>\n Op \u2019n dag het sy doodluiters weer sleepvoet geloop om te gaan eiers uithaal. Sy kon haar o\u00eb nie glo toe daar geen eiers in die hoenderhokke was nie, maar lemoene! Sy vertel grootoog hoe sy huistoe gehardloop het en die familie geroep het om te kom kyk! Hulle hoenders het dan nou lemoene gel\u00ea in plaas van eiers!<\/p>\n Natuurlik het die boeties en sussies haar uitgelag, totdat hulle by die hoenderhokke gekom het en dit s\u00e9lf gesien het. Hulle was almal opgewonde oor die lemoene, want vrugte was nie \u2019n alledaagse nie. Die volgende dag by die skool het sy al haar maats vertel van die wonderwerk. Natuurlik het hulle dit met \u2019n knippie sout gevat, maar tog na skool opgeruk om die petalje te aanskou. <\/p>\n \u201cJitte man, ek kon dit nie glo nie! Daar was wraggies nie meer een lemoen in die hokke nie \u2013 net eiers! Dit kon nie wees nie! Dis eers toe ek my boeties sien staan en skaterlag dat ek besef het hulle het my \u2019n streep getrek!\u201d<\/p>\n Nou wonder ek: met die kommer oor die verwagte lae pryse wat boere vir hulle sitrus gaan kry, of hulle nie eerder met hoenders en ander pluimvee moet begin boer nie. Dalk is daar \u2019n gans onder hulle wat goue eiers kan l\u00ea…<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" \u201cMy kind, as jy met nat hare gaan slaap, gaan jy stinkneus kry, \u201d het my pa altyd gewaarsku.
