I wonder...

How they learn to climb on a table.
That the a light is supposed to be switched on and off.
A sandal in my feet means I am stepping step out.
Right hand for amu and left for aru waves goodbye on its own.
Hide and seek means hiding behind a sofa.
Biscuit means chewing. Water means sipping.
And eyes shut means sleeping.
Feet mean to walk.
A smile. A peck and a 'godhi' means that we love them.
I wonder...

Toy Tales

I am in Singapore right now. If it was 4 months back, I would be busy shopping toys for Aru and Amu rather than writing this. It's not that I don't enjoy buying toys for them. It's just that none of the toys I have bought so far have managed to replace the ones they have created for themselves. If you look at the number of toys they have and then look at what they are happy playing with you will understand what I am trying to say. Stuffed animals, stuffed dolls, stuffed you-name-it, cars, trucks, vans, books, more books, the noisy ones, the quiet ones, the big ones, the small ones... they all are waiting for their turn to come. Has their turn come? Sir no sir! It has always been spoons, steel plates, bowls, agarbatti stand, plastic bottles and their caps (caps get a special mention here), remote controls, DVDs (sigh!) and our mobile phones that they fancy the most. And find happiness in them. Not that I am complaining. I hope they stay that way. Atleast they will compensate for the extravagance their mother shows in buying stuff for them :-)
