More from M

1. M had drawn a duck and had riddled it with circles. When I asked her if the duck was suffering from chicken pox, she looked at me and said, ‘No Amma, she got poison ivy when she was building her nest!'

2. M had to go to the bathroom. After she was done and I cleaned her, and here is what she asks me, "Now do you have to wash your hands or do I?' She actually argued her way saying she couldn't figure out why she had to when she did not get her hands dirty at all, when I said we both have to! And she is not even 4!

Why Obama?

With all the fervor surrounding the recent elections, and M, exposed to my democrat rooting, relayed this conversation from her school to me on the night before the elections.

''Amma, Dylan in my class said Mcain should be president, and I told him, 'No Obama should be president because my mom says so' :)

Day after the big news, when I told her the result she said, 'Amma, I have an idea, why can't they both share and be president' :)

Just wanted to jot it down some place....
