Sriram has become so playful and is discovering a sense of humour. Everyday he teases me about creating funny tantrums for buying him a new toy. I don’t give in and he keeps persisting and its a game. I’ll shake my head from side to side, he shakes his head up and down all the while smiling with a mischievous glint in his eye. Yes, it does get out of my hands sometimes, but mostly it is a game. Funny he is most of the times. When I get upset with him, he’ll try to do something funny and keep pestering me to smile when I really feel like smacking him. Ultimately he makes me laugh out loud, that’s a different story. Today I was smiling for something he did for quite sometime and he was ‘mom, stop smiling’.
