At the playground

Not exactly an Adi tale - was looking at kids playing in the lawn the other day while kiddo was practicing to be a tricycle champ. One of the moms came out and announced that her kids have to come inside at 6 and she went back home(her house overlooks the lawn they were playing at). Kids started having a discussion at this point and it went like this:
Girl 1 (confused): When do you think it will be 6?
Girl 2 (yes, she had an answer to it): I think its around midnight.
Boy 1(the one who knew his numbers): No. Its somewhere near 5.
Boy 2(smarty pants): Know what? Lets play in the other lawn. Your mom cant see you then!
And they all ran away happily to the other side.

The time I wished I could dig a hole and bury myself!!!

We were at Michaels this saturday shopping for things I didnt need until I went in there. Me and kiddo, that is. Hubby does not come anywhere near that place. Anyways, I was looking at flowers. And like any sane shopper I examined them, checked if they were on sale, calculated prices and kept putting them back. I was on the mission to find something I like at prices I liked. My multilingual kiddo asked me in malayalam as to why I kept putting them back and I told him that I did not like them(again in our language). Now anyone who has or has been near kids know that they keep repeating their questions. And he did too. Only this time he chose to do it in English. He went - "(serious tone) mom what you do is not very nice. You cannot just keep taking stuff from the store.." Yes. He suddenly saw a mickey mouse craft and stopped his sentence mid way! Right there - as if accusing me of theft. The nice old lady who was smiling until that point pushed her cart away and I, well, just read the title!!!
