Gotta Love The Childhood

Yesterday we were watching a beautiful program on public television Parrots in the land of Oz and enjoyed every bit of it. I never knew about so many varieties of parrots and that too just in Australia! There was a part where they showed fire spreading across the forest and our four year old cried "oh no, do something, the sun is breaking apart" well, daddy just ate his laughter and shoved it back in his belly and mamma, while trying to contain herself, plainly stated the fact that its fire and not the sun.

Duck the baby sitter was the name of the story we were about to read and Saumya asked "what is a baby sitter?" It was a legitimate question because we haven't used the services of any up until now. I asked her to think who would be called a baby sitter. She said "A person who helps the babies learn how to sit because babies do not know how to sit" Can you argue with that? And I can already foresee a problem if we try to hire one for her. The name is Baby sitter and she gets so offended if someone calls her a baby, hmmm, what else would you call a baby sitter? A person sitter?
