My elder one was playing with the SWAT team gadgets and was engaged in a discussion regarding Police. The talk turned towards President etc. I mentioned that a President is a more powerful and important person than a Police officer. He couldn't stand that comment. He shot back - "All a President does is to dress up, live in the White House and rule the country. But a Police office FIXES things".
Really something to ponder over during this Presidential election year !!
One Friday we came home after buying groceries which included a pack of chocolate chip cookies. Thought it was late in the night, my son decided to take a stab at it, come what may. Asked him mom, "Can I have three cookies ?". He was expecting a stern NO from her and was prepared to negotiate. To his utter surprise, my wife gave in as it was anyway weekend night. Not expecting this response, he wanted to make doubly sure if his mom heard him properly so that he does not get into trouble with her. So he confirmed it again with her - "THREE cookies, mommy? the one that comes AFTER TWO".
