keshav bada ho gaya!

after a loooong time, i am back..once more with a typical keshav quick-wit reply: here goes:
the background: nowadays keshav has a super temper and an ego to match (2 years and eight months). i have been busy teaching ketaki for her exams and keshav was feeling neglected.he kept requesting me to teach him too, which i was not able to. so he throws the pencil and eraser, which were in his hand, one day, and walks off in a huff. i tell him to apologize immediately or to go and say sorry to Jai-Jai (God)..he has an option right?..NO..he says he is not wrong and defends his position. i try everyday for three days to get him to agree that his action was wrong.(mind you, i was not asking him to accept that his anger was wrong. i let him take that as a justification for feeling left out.)
Today: the fourth day: night 10:30PM: keshav has still not said sorry...and this happened..
keshav and ketaki were having an argument. keshav says, "Main bada hoon" (I'm a big boy) and ketaki goes, "tum chhote ho"(u r small).keshav goes to his father for support. does not get any. comes to me. no go. so he says, i'll ask dadi..and yeah yippee..he gets the support..he comes back and says "dekha!!"(see!).

so i tell, I cannot accept that u r big because,
1. kids who throw tantrums to eat chocos instead of meals cannot be bada...he sings bada, bada, bada
2. kids who cry for everything, if they don't get it cannot be bada...he sings bada, bada, bada
3. kids who cry while taking medicines cannot be bada...he sings bada, bada, bada
4. kids who throw their pencils and erasers adn don't say sorry cannot be bada...HE SINGS "SORRY SORRY SORRY" in the same tune as bada bada bada, with a huge nad knowing smile on his face, and smacks me with a kiss and hug and then sings; "bada bada bada"

we can never win.

Keshav Klassics!

Keshav is now full of words...everyday we find a new word in his vocabulary and the usage is just perfect!..

For instance...read this...

Keshav was running around in the house and fell on his tummy...
In the same lying position, he says " Dhham GGi Gaya, Bum Chot Lag Gayi, Pet Toot Gaya" :):)...Explained absolutely everything that happened :)

Ketaki Classics--Glasses??

We were on our mahabaleshwar holiday and were just relaxing in our hotel room since it was raining cats and dogs outside..
Now curious and bored miss.ketaki was discovering the contents of pragnya's bag...
It had a deodorant spray...Ketaki had her face really close to the spray nozzle and was trying to push it down...
Seeing this,Pragnya rushed to her and tried to explain why she shoudn't be doing so.

Pragnya says"Kunna, agar tumne aankh itni pass rakhke spray dabaya..to tumhari aankhen kharab ho jayengi.aur tumhe bada bada chashma lagana padega"...she thought this would scare Ketaki enough...

Kunna looks at her...thoughtfully....and after 10 sec of silence turns to Mohit and asks "Papa aapko isliye chashma laga?" :):):)

lookalikes

tho' not quintessentially good looking, this was far from expected..hilarious..started me thinking..

ketaki classics contd..

undeniable logic..
ketaki sez..ma, man monkey hota hai na..i say, kyun?..monkey banana khata hai, hum banan khate hain,,so hum monkeys hain...

relation solution..
mama, badi hoke main keshav se shadi karoongi..i say, bittoo, keshav is ur brother and u don't marry ur brother..k says, to main shadi kissse karoongi? i say, u'll marry a boy and keshav will marry a different girl..k says, so how will u and papa stay alone after we go away..i tell her, u'll go but keshav will stay and bring the new girl home..she considers this for a moment and then says, phir meri mama koun hogi? i'd rather have u go with me so i'll have my mama..i say, wot abt keshav? she says, the new girl will bring her mama na......
td..

sublime knowledge of my four year old:

i tell her..kunna, sandals kholo..she sez,"kyun?"..i say,'har baat pe kyun nahin kehte'..she sez,'kyun nahin?'........:P
so see..this is a typical conversation..one of the many that i have with her..
anuther classic:
kunna khana kha lo...
nahin..
kunna please...
nahin..
kunna baat mano..
zabardasti karoge to bilkul bilkul nahin khaaoongi......

child speak

and i thought, i'll keep a record of all the quotes that ketaki makes...at four she has an output rate of of about 400 witty ones a day..that's just the witty count ok..i am simply unable to keep up..just impossible..even trying to remember them..well first ingesting wot she has said, then marvelling at her thought process, then the awe of her logical sequencing and then the thorough amazement at the output and outpourings from her system....i am flooded..so in the end i have nuthing to share at the end of the day..due to sheer lack of strength.

so i thought i'll just upload her art work..the crayon art is ketaki translation of a chair when she was three..more in the next post

so ppl i duly apologize:)
