All that glitters is not gold

DP made kids lunch - Peanut butter and jelly sandwich. As usual Suhani gives him a rough hug before he leaves. That moring she was still in bathroom while he was leaving so she ran over to him outside the garage and got into the van and gave him a hug and a kiss. He then realized that there is some jelly on his hand. As he did not find a tissue in his van, he licked it. Then his expression made me realize that is was not strawberry jelly but Barbie Tooth Paste.

Parts of ‘Speech’

I was cleaning up the house yesterday after came back from ‘Dance Masti’. I kept asking Shivani and Suhani to help me but they kept enjoying their Oreo cookies. I said to Shivani “You are being very lazy these days and not helping me with cleanup”. She replied back “Amma, I am eating. Eating is verb. Verb means action. That means I am doing something and I am not being lazy”.

This is same as proving Lie = Truth in mathematical way.
1 truth = 1/2 truth + 1/2 truth
1/2 truth means the other is 1/2 is lie, so the above becomes
       = 1/2 lie + 1/2 lie
       = 1 lie
Basically Truth = Lie

Suhani swallowed a tiny fridge magnet the other day. After couple of days I figured out that actually two were missing.I checked with Suhani and she said “I was playing with 2 magnets and both were stuck together so I was trying to separate them with my teeth and that is when I swallowed both.” I asked her why she did not tell me about 2 magents. She replied back saying both were stuck togther, so it was just one.

Look who is not listening

I asked Suhani to pick up something from the floor in her room. After some time I asked her whether she picked it up. She answered me saying “yes”. But when I saw that it was still lying there. I immediately raised my voice and asked her why she answered ‘yes’ to my question. She answered “Amma, I was about to say - yes, I am going to pick it up,”. So I was the one who did not wait for her to finish.
