Mum: "Look at your plants Liya. They are drying up because you don't water them. And see mine, they are growing fast because I water them everyday."
Liya: (Glancing at the dough that was getting kneaded) "Why do you add water to the flour?"
Mum: "So that it's wet and makes good dough to roll in. "
Liya: "But, that doesn't grow even if we water it, right?"
## Convincing mum that things not always grow with watering. ##

Girl and Mum in the elevator.
Girl: "Mama, Do you know how does a lift work?"
Mum: "Oh, no! Teach me if you know."
Girl: "Hmmm.. You know there is a wide black band beneath the lift, which is closed when it is off. When you press a number to go up/down, the band opens wide but slowly. There are numbers written on the band, if you press 4, the band stops slowly at 4 and the doors get open."
Mum: "Amazing, who taught you this?"
Girl: "No one, you know I am a THINKER girl. I found it by thinking."
## A THINKER tag - I could not stop laughing at that. I have a little Einstein in making! ##
***************************************************
Girl: "Mama, did you miss your mother when we were living in the US?"
Mum: "Yes, why?"
Girl: "I just wanted to see if you have such feelings..:) "
Mum: "what?"
Girl: "Because, I miss you a lot when I am in the school."
## The last line is indeed mummy buttering. ##
***************************************************
Girl: "Mama, when I was born did they take me to Pulikkal house (paternal home) first? "
Mum: "No, from the hospital we went straight to mum's parent's place ."
Girl: "I see! What did grandpa say when he saw me for the first time...?"

ReplyDeleteThe theory is definitely wrong. But I liked how much thoughts she has put in to bring up the theory. :)
