Whose Line is it anyway - #2


Our "young man" continues to amaze as with his cute one-liners..Here is some more --
1. My wife always has this nagging feeling that our son will take either the GRE or the IIT entrance exam when he gets to his kindergarten age. True to her feelings, she was furiously trying to make our lad spell out simple words like CAT, DOG etc. She wrote CAT on a piece of paper and read it as "C-A-T" and said "CAT". Our fellow said "CAT" too. Now she asked, "How do you spell CAT ?". Eagerly expecting a "C-A-T" from him, she was astounded when he came out with a cute "meow". Apparently the concept of "spelling" itself was yet to sink in.
2. As I mentioned earlier, as our young man grows up, there is a constant battle of wits going on between him and the adults - constantly trying to out wit each other. One late night our man was put in his bed, lights switched off (so that he wont jump off bed and run out) and was asked to sleep. Somehow he was not in a mood to lie down and at the same time afraid of the dark to get out of bed as well. He desperately wanted to get his grand parents in so that he can figure a way out. He yelled from him bed "Good night, thaatha(grandpa)". When his grandpa from the other side of the room's door yelled back "Good night", our fellow, realizing that he is not going to come in, replied back "I am not able to hear you say "Good night", so come inside and tell me". There are lot of things going on in that little beautiful mind of his. As I remark sometimes, a young velociraptor in the making - constant learning and trying to break and outwit boundaries and rules..

This post's pic was taken at Sea Port Village of San Diego where this amazing guy was creating all cartoon characters with balloons. My son wanted a Nemo and there it is..
