Caravan


Anush , like most kids, adapts well to this gypsy like existence of ours. There are times when she insists we stay at one of the two homes or that she would like to take the toy/game from one to the other with her but mostly she goes with the flow. She knows both homes have some thing to look forward to. She also has a couple of friends in each apartment now- that helps as well.

She enjoys her cycle and the terrace in home 1
She loves the slides, swings and park in home 2

Some Anushisms:

MATHS
While playing teacher- student with her father-
I want to do bionomial cube/ tower
Now what is that- we had to google it to find out

Amma you got me 3 new dresses? I wore one new dress now- so there are two more na?
When did she learn to subtract

PROFESSIONAL
I am a doctor- Open your mouth - show me your ears- it won't hurt you, don't worry. I am being very gentle.

LIFE
Whenever she does not want to run an errand
I am small na? How can I do it myself?

Anush keep the house tidy, we are having guests- I told you!
If someone is coming, we must keep the house clean.
If someone is not coming, we must not keep the house clean!

When any of us argue
Please be quiet. So I have to close my ears!

JOURNEY
Is this a long journey , a medium journey or short journey?
What will you do if it is a long journey
i will wait for us to reach amma
And if it is short?
I dont know. . .

TV
Can I watch this? This is not crap na?

LOL at the not cleaning up the house bit. and the crap! :-D
Look forward to more Anushisms.

The Montessori method is awesome,isn't it? Makes me regret more than ever that I moved Sonny boy out of a school following it:-(
He was damn smart then, even if we parents were made to feel like dumbos occasionally.

monika.ansh- my mom and granny live in the older home closer to anush's school ( till recently my dad too)and we live in the other new home - all fine technically

but we shuttle and if anush is vacationing it gets even more erratic


justlikethat- i do love what the school does for anush but i just dont find them cheerful enough- like excited cheerful and yes i often feel like a dumbo

How do we know said...

Anush is a very intelligent kid. Congratulations!
