I'm not a squirrel!

San was enjoying the Tres Leches cake slice that we bought for her yesterday. There was a little sprinkle of nuts (or whatever it was) on the icing.

San (while driving her spoon around the 'nutty' portion): San won't eat this Jeera (Cumin seeds), Mommy!
Me: Those are nuts, San, not Jeera.
San: I can't eat the nuts, Mommy! I'm not a squirrel. I'm just a girl!

And these days, to get me off the laptop, she breaks into this (with very innocent eyes and hands on her tummy) - "I'm hungry, Mommy. Please give me some food.  Really hungry, Mommy! Please, Mommy, please!" And this, almost all the time, melts my little heart! Sigh!

Another first day at the school, Another favorite

New session began this week at San's preschool. Today is her first day in the new session. After a week's break, she wasn't so keen on going back to school, but we'd convinced her well! She was all happy in the morning until she reached her class. New teacher, new kids, some crying, and some screaming... she couldn't take it and started crying. I kept telling myself and Papa dear and the teacher that she'll be fine. Yes, she definitely was fine later, but for a moment, I was reminded of her very first day in school, and everything felt new and alien! Phew! What a feeling!

Oh and this is her birthday month, yippee! God knows what has made her Minnie-Mouse-Crazy, suddenly, and we obviously didn't have to go through the trouble of choosing a theme for her b'day party. :) She's even bought herself a new Minnie Mouse night suit!

Here's some more of 'San says':

San (on the way to home, in the car): Papa, go faster!
Papa: Okay! (pretends to go fast)
San: Wow! Papa, you're fastering!

San (in the restroom): The flush is gonna go by itself, Mommy?
Me: Yes, San. It's automatic.
San (after the flush thing happened): Wow Mommy, it's aumotatic!

San (today morning while brushing her teeth): I'm really tired, Mommy!
Me: Take a shower and you'll be fine.
San: But I'm feeling tired in my bum!
