This morning to school, she shut me out. She insisted that her paati ( my mom) give her a bath and get her ready for school. Something unheard of .
I was cheesed off ( mature that I am) and asked her why? She said she loved her paati and that she wanted her to do stuff for her. Probably as an after thought ( lest I shed copious tears ) she said she loved me too and gave a smile and rushed away.

Today Anush's teacher seems to have asked her if she was prepared to stay longer at school . Anush, all grown up that she is, of course said yes. ( she stays only 3 hours as of now).
I NEED TO GROW UP. ... at least before the second baby comes over .....some one said something about humble pie....it has come sooner than expected.
:D

ReplyDeleteThat is so so sweet! But yes, I know what you mean about letting them do their own thing and not getting offended :)
ReplyDeleteBTW meant to tell you that D loves the stories of Mr. Muthu - I read them and then told her the same thing in my own words (with embellishments)
Like P & S's Mom said ih her post the humble pie is truly delicious :) You'll be truly ready when the second one comes - hugs!

ReplyDeleteit is indeed wonderful to see the love that grandparents and kids share... specially since i feel my mother is really the most selfless and best grand mom any kid could have. . .

ReplyDeleteYipee!! one of my few blogger friends who reads MM- do u read the online ones or get the book?
Online *looks sheepish* Thought I would subscribe to Chandamama when she gets older.
ReplyDeleteLOL. Theyre growing up too soon on us. I dont like this. Its a conspiracy theory. Theyre supposed to want us to do everything for them for the rest of their lives, right????
ReplyDeleteLOL! I know how it feels. With both Paatis around for Adu, I face this quite often. I'm quite used to it now. Yeah, it hurt badly the first time...
