My Child & I
Second born paints a perfect picture (not with colors this time) of enjoying his breakfast- milk dripping from his chin and jam smeared all over his cheeks.
Dad helps him tidy up ; while washing the little guy's face, a bit of water falls on second born's shirt.
Second-born: "Appa! No spilling water. You're making me 'dirty'!!!"
Too bad for dad! :)

My Child & I
Second-born is delighted with his new set of crayons given by a birthday girl at school.
Mom manages to save Firstborn's Computer workbook, dad's ticket printout and the walls ; while second-born gets ready to color them all.
Firstborn walks in after school while second-born is busy coloring away; this time thankfully on an old monthly calendar.
Firstborn: " Oh.. What is he doing?"
Mom (now exhausted): " Um.. just trying his new crayons, I guess"
Firstborn (who loves drawing, himself- joyfully): "Aha, I can see he loves Orange color and he's making a Fire! "
Well, it does take an artist to recognize another!
And, let's cut some slack- Mom was tired & does not have a trained eye for modern art!

That's what she said...
Sakhi is visiting a friend in a nearby apartment.
While the friends are chattering away, a neighbor stops by to return a brochure
Friend (welcomes neighbor) : "Come on in K! You've met Sakhi , right?"
Neighbor (recognizing me from a recent gathering) : "Yes, yes- I know this one, really nice seeing it!"
Was left wondering if neighbor was referring to Sakhi or an item from the brochure.

150th Post: My Child & I
Sunday morning. Grandparents in town. Boys thrilled. We're excitedly catching-up.
Grandpa unpacks two Tanjore paintings of Lord Ganesha.
Firstborn (observes the pictures, and declares) : "Only 3 differences in the pictures- In the first one Ganesha is sitting, has a book and the trunk is to the right; and in the other Ganesha is dancing, has a drum (mirudangam) and has trunk is to the left!"
Grandpa (impressed): " Very Good, that's my boy!"
Grandma (wanting Second-born also to shine): " Kanna, how many hands does Ganesha have?"
Second born (licking a laddu): "Aiyyo! Today is Sunday, my holiday, Ok?"
Well, he has his laddu and is eating it too!
Just for the count : This being the 150th post- I dedicate it to my boys -hubby, sons 1 & 2!
