Hindi Exam!

We studied and studied and studied some more and finally when we went to sleep, arjun says,

" Amma. i feel i have been studying for days and months and years and i have become an old man now"

Couldnt have put it better myself.

My star!

Going through the Induction Program at work, I had drawn a star next to a point i wanted to remember. Jun goes through my book, sees it and exclaims in pure unadulterated pride,

'They gave you a STAR at work amma???"

Not yet Jun, not yet :p

I owe, I owe...

...so off to work i go!!

I have been dying to say this from the day i saw this line .... and now after seven years, I really am a WORKING woman again.

So pleased, happy, super excited and slightly weak in the knees.

Thank you God and my best friend for making this happen.

Despicable me?

Jun and I decided to eat out as Maddy wasn't coming home for lunch. The place we went to had the Chinese zodiac with the whole zoo and their characteristics as the table mats. Arjun ofcourse, read each one out loudly and then compared mine and his.

Amma, it says that i am romantic but you are NOT romantic. What is romantic?

ummm....being romantic means being very loving. (what could i say to a six year old??)

Oh amma...they have written so correctly!!! I am so loving and you are always scolding me!! You are definitely NOT romantic. So correct!!

Scary but true

Its exam time again and this is how we did it!!

Me : Arjun, stages of a seed?

Jun : seed, seedling, plant, adult tree, dead tree

Me : Right. Stages of a bird?

Jun : Egg, chick, adult bird, dead bird.

Now THAT was definitely not in the book!!

My son has branded me...

Amma, you are a mind changer!!!

You are always changing your mind!!!

Added to this is the smug-i-am-not-alone-in-this-world-smile from the husband and i can think of a couple of more things i could change my mind about!!

grrr.

Happiness is contagious!
