Listening!

Vedu,

It is tough to be a good listener. I can already see how restless you get when I try to talk to you - you are more interested in that old toffee wrapper. In the coming years, you will see how I will try my best to make you a good listener. Please co-operate.

Love,
Amma

Avoid If Possible!

Lil V,

There are a few things which you should try to avoid to say as much as it is possible. They are - 'I told you so',  'No offense meant' , 'My intention is not to hurt you but..'. what happens is that you will end up hurting a person who is already a little hurt. No offense meant is not a disclaimer to openly offend someone.

Love,
Amma

Suspicious Lil boy

V,
My God - how suspicious you are of the food bowl and how you keep staring at it! Then, you give me the - 'mad woman is at it again' look. Please eat well, it will help me getting less grey hair. 

Love, 

Amma

Fake Crying!

Dear V,

I guess you think you will try to get things done your way with the fake crying which stops the moment you get what you want. Do not think I give in because I approve. At times, I am too tired and I want to you to just shut up.  Sign of the battles to come.

Love,

Amma

Snippets for a lil boy - Boy Toys and Girl Toys

Cars Vs Dolls, Kitchen Set Vs Outdoor toys! Gosh, they even have pink chocolate and blue chocolate for boys and girls. So, lil V, it gives me so much joy when I see you playing with the kitchen utensils. You seem fascinated with the potato masher and the puttu kutti. Keep at it.

Love,
Amma

P.S - I would love it if you played with that dolly baby too, but you always throw her away.
