Water vs Milk

Agastya: Do you know why i prefer milk than water?
Me: Is it because you think milk is tastier?
Agastya: No. It's because water comes from Earth's rivers, and Earth is running out of water.

Know your brand

We bought summer shoes for the kids today at the mall. As soon as we got to the kids section, Lila immediately picked the pairs she liked, while Agastya wanted our opinions for his choices. Of course she picked the pair that looked like cupid thrown up on it with glitters all over them, but she's a fashion guru so who am I to argue? When I took the shoes from her to show to the attendant for sizing, she complained, "NOOO!!! That's my SKECHERS!!"

Why yes it is Skechers, but who told her that?

Marriage and babies

My kids are such experts in being scary and entertaining all at the same time.

Take a conversation a few days ago:
Agastya: I'm never getting married.
Lila: I want to get married!!!!
Nagi (sounded extremely horrified at the thought): Who do you want to marry, Lila?
Agastya: Is it Manuel?
Lila: No! Me! I want to marry Lila!!!

Which brings us back to just now:
Agastya: I won't be happy if I have a baby.
Me: So you don't want to have a baby?
Agastya: Yeah. I wouldn't know how to feed my first born!
Me: (wow, ok, sensible...) Okay.
Lila: I AM HAVING A BABY!!!!!
