SanFrancisco :
B had to goto SFO on a business trip. Aj cried the evening B left to Sanfranciso and when he called he said, next time make sure you take your wife and the kids! :) LOL!
Knowledge :
AJ keeps going to school late whenever B is not in town. I have a meeting at 8 and i need to get him ready before that, but he stalls and stalls and somehow we were 10 mins late everyday. I got frustrated and said AJ if you continue to be late like this they will stop you from school and you will have to watch the buffalos and cows that your dad will buy for you. That means you will stop gaining knowledge and he goes " No..if i watch the cows and buffalos and try to find if they have horns or not, that means i am gaining knowledge" Case closed!
Tooth problem :
A week back Aj saw my mil's dentures in the bathroom and asked Ashu what it was. That's when Ashu noticed it and explained to AJ what dentures are and why it is needed.
After two days, i had terrible tooth ache and had to have a root canal. After root canal, i had severe pain and had tears in my eyes. Ashu was terrified,i guess. When B called from SFO he said :DAddy, please take me to the dentist as soon as you come. We haven't visited the dentist in a year. I neither want a root canal or even worse the dentures. ROFL
Stale Mate :
Ashu lost the first match at chess club and then next week he lost again and said GRR i am so mad i end up playing with the same kid every week and he ends up winning and he's older than me so it's not fair. Then this week he had a stale mate and was quite pleased with himself and said atleast it's better than losing :)
He also wants to become like Vishy Anand (Thats how he refers to Vishwanathan Anand). I told him the story of Anand winning all the t.v contests about chess and they called and said you come and take whatever books you want, but please give other children a chance to win :) He was super impressed and now the little dude is impressed too and they both want to become like Vishy! :D
Golu:
On sat, i went to couple of friends' house for tamboolam and it was both good. I left ashu with his friend H and took only Aj. Aj was pretty upset that i took him to girls houses only. Next day he was even more shocked when i invited my friends for tamboolam. LOL! He was fighting for men's rights!! Kaalam maari pochu!! He said i need to find something for men to celebrate!!
