The racist

I never expected Mira to be one, or maybe racist is too deep a word. You decide what to deem her...

We were in Carrefour doing grocery's when she saw a Fruitale sweet. She asked was it an Adult sweet or kid sweet. I told her it was for children. She said then, could she buy it..

Me : No , we cant get it Mira
Mira : Tell me why
Me : It has beef gelatine. Indians do not eat beef
Mira : Then who can eat this
Me : Most Indians should not eat beef. Others can
Mira : But i am not Indian
Me : Then what are you?
Mira : i'm English

Ouch...

We were having dinner last night and she said ,
Mira : Amma, the sky is so Tamilish
Me : Huh? Why
Mira : Its so dark.

Oh dear. I hope she doesn't get into trouble for this when she grows big...

Hehe...

Mira's starting school

Little one has started school two days back. She seems to be just going with the flow. When we ask her what she ate in school, she says nothing.What did you do - Nothing. Did you play? - No.
Hmm... we probably need some spy cameras installed like some other kindy.

We were at the supermarket over the weekend as she was sitting on the trolley while being pushed by Saisha. She told Saisha, " Akka , push faster. " Before we could say anything, she started singing loudly ,

" I will survive , I will survive"

LoL , a bit too much for a 3.and a half year old. Hope she sings this in school too..
