Days of Innocence....

Today, we as usual were assembled at the lunch table, and as always tossing different topics, it was then somehow we got the topic of small childrens..
their habits, their likes, dislikes & also their unpredictable nature.

We had a lengthy narration of individual experiences with kids, it started with the senior guys adding their experiences & ambience was awesome, every body added their experiences, short tales & carved out tales..

Interesting topic and exciting tales - Hiding anything which comes handy in places not commonly used by others such as placing mobiles in VCRs, flushing all the changes in the toilet flush,throwing antiques from window, hiding in cupboard,playing with marbles, eating mud, archery used to be the favourite for all.
ofcouurse when caught cry out loudly...

Best of one heard was of a kid burning currency acquired from his/her parents wallet & so overjoyed to see the different coloured flames that it couldnt resist calling up parents to join the show...

Some common sights we see..
Trying to get into their parents shoes & walk around, fall and still carry on..
Tilting the toys upside down & banging it agaisnt the wall.. hey whose inside..
Staring at a new face, giving a smile at one moment, when stranger returns the smile..blushes & starts crying.. leaves the stranger fuming...what have i done..?
Hitting you on your cheek, playing with your nose, pulling your ears, scratching your hair - warning this all can happen if you lift a child.. even worse if not in a good mood, you will get a punch on your face...

Kids at different ages behave variantly, at age of 4-8 they are genious, they flood you with 60 question per minute and believe me you cant find an answer to a single of them.. they will choose everything available in a store, wisely wait for you to return with a change if thats the reason you choose to say..
Worst yet to come - they toss question at a public place, you need guts sometime to answer them, they build up your guts and so do they make you a public figure..:)

Those moments you spent with the little ones are priceless, they remind you of wht you were when you were at the same age, they bring happiness & joy to all, they cheer the crowd & thats why its truly said - LITTLE CHILDREN are WISER THAN MEN..
