my kid was not happy to see me... she's staying over at her nani's place and i went in the morning to drop off some of her clothes. she thought I had come to collect her. the first thing she did was make a face and then told me to come post the vacations!! cool... and all this while i thought she liked me :) hahaha... good fun thing this 'parenting' bit is. they probably grow to let me know that i did a bad jobon them. hmmm, thats why i like to keep it simple and loving as opposed to complex startegies... wehaven't yet got her to taste any aerated drinks, simply by not having it as well. if we dont drink, she does not want to have it as well. its difficult teaching, while you go ahead and flout all rules.
Also i went and bought some hand puppets. it was good fun playing with them. the tough part is trying not to make every quality time with your child an intense teaching session. i dont believe you need to teach all the time, but i sure believe you need to learn all the time. i guess we just need to have a ball with the time we have and leave the rest to the kid's ability. i use that while teaching college as well. Not 100% of the time should be spent teaching. that will completely bore the pants of the kids. I guess even 30% quality time with simple clean concepts would be enough. HAVE FUN - if you learn in the process, cool.
one visitor from london office was wondering how the mumbai taxis run with the fuel meters always on empty! and that too all the taxis??? I had to explain that most of them run on CNG/LPG and their indicators are the small grren dots next to the steering on the left. Whew, he was glad to know that the taxis will have enough fuel for getting him to the airport!
