Jurassic Park - Too Much!

""Amma, do you know what a rhinosaur's horn is made up of?"

I explained that its a dinosaur but a rhinoceros.

He seems to be taking this fact with a pinch of salt.

And for those who are wondering what the answer is, its hair!!

 

The Match Winner!

We have put Jun in a cricket camp. Not because he shows any particular talent but because he just loves the game so much.

Cricket practice is usually one day of net practice and one day is a match.

On a match day (much preferred to net practice day!) , we saw the most unusual game closer.

Arjun's team needed one run to win. Arjun was at the crease.

We are all chewing our non existent nails.

The bowler bowls.........its a wide and everybody comes and high-fives arjun!!

We know better than to have a reality check and thoroughly enjoy the situation :)

I must also mention, he is actually a much better bowler than he is a batsman and THAT ensures he is not the last one to get chosen by the captain!!

Too Long!

You know its been too long since you blogged when you forget the hyphen in your blog's address!!

Now, the reason for the post :

Amma, S (little girl downstairs) and i were having a dinosuar war. We both drew our dinosaurs and they were going to fight with each other. You know what i called mine?

What da?

(With necessary scary voice and movements) : I named mine 'KILLER FORCE'

Ooooh arjun, that sounds dangerous!

YES Amma!! (quite happy that i had got it.)

 Do you know what S named hers ?

Tell me jun...

She named it (in falsetto)...'beauty butterfly' What kind of a name is that amma for a dinosaur?? And she also drew little butterflies all over its body!!

...and mother and son chuckled over a girl.

 May the good times last!!

Oh dear...

Jun was busy working on the Crossword Book his ammamma got him.

His clue was 'A tiger like animal, black in colour.'

He just could not figure it out.

So Maddy, finally in exasperation said, " Maybe its a panther ? "

Arjun shook his head vehemently... "Can't be Achcha...panthers are PINK!"

:)

Boys and Girls

Jun and i were having a cuddling session one early morning. I was blissfully hugging my little boy when he said (and i still can't believe he said this) : "Amma, can we disengage once achcha comes out of the bathroom?"

A very deflated me eloquently said." hunh??"

"No amma, otherwise achcha will say that i have joined the girl's team now"

My husband is dead meat.

grr

ps : my son actually said 'disengage' :))

At the movies!

You know jun doesnt like the movie (we have taken the trouble to go to a theatre to watch) when he suddenly sighs out loudly,

"Can we change the channel here?"

To be fair, even maddy and i thought THAT was the best part of the movie :)

Valentine's Day

Maddy, wake up...Happy Valentine's Day!!

Jun who was supposedly sleeping next to him suddenly sits up : Amma, today is Valentine's Day?

Yes, jun...(and am really worried about why he is looking so excited)

So its a HOLIDAY???

hee hee...no Jun...sorry!!

And that explained that.

:)

Phew!
