Summer time

Summer has been amazing so far!It feels wonderful to walk out of our home without the jackets,gloves,hats,earmuffs…..Oww!even the list feels heavy.I love opening up the windows when the weather warms up.Fresh air is rejunevating.
We had been to a petting zoo and munchkin had a wonderful time complete with cotton candy and a trip to the park.Having to take munchkin to a zoo to catch a glimpse of hens, goats, cows, pigs always crackles me up.I mean back home I would just need to come out of our gate and sometimes not even out of our gate.I remember a goat had once come inside our compound and happily chewed up half an hibiscus plant before we shooed it away.There was also a time when a cat had kittens in our verandah.
What a world of difference!sigh!!

Munchkins first contradiction

Munchkin has a lot of pet names..Linux and me together call him with a lot of endearments.I use ‘gundappa’ or ‘gundamma’ a lot.

Yesterday evening we were all sitting together in the living room and this is how the conversation went:

Me: gundamma, dont run..

munchkin: amma run..i wansu run

Me: ok..be careful..

(No reply)

Me again: gundamma?

munchkin: I no gundamma ma.I am boy!

Linux was in fits!Oh well, my baby has grown!!
