Conversations with a toddler :)

One of the best conversations I have nowadays is with my LO who is growing so fast that I fear the day when he no more needs me for all the little things in his life ! Sigh...thats life so I plan to enjoy his childhood to the fullest :) He is my best buddy nowadays,  with my husband's schedule being hectic with work and higher studies.

So here are some instances of the cute conversations we have :

While going to bed:
DS: Mommy, am I important to you?
Me: *dazzled n surprise* of course baby, you are important, very much :)
He pauses for about 5 seconds and then comes the next question.
DS: Amma, what does important mean?
Me with a wide smile on my face tries to explain what important means in a simplest way a toddler could understand and luckily satisfies him with an answer...
Again after a pause of about 2-3 seconds my LO turns up to me, gives me the nicest gift of a hug and kiss and then he says "I love you mommy and thank you because I am important to you" :)
Bestest thing a mommy can hear :) made my day worth everything :)

The other day while driving him home from school and when asked what he did in school, this is what he said:

DS:  My teachers told us all about honey bees today.
Me: ok, thats nice. What is it that you learnt?
DS: There are 3 types of bees - queen bee, thrown bee, worker bee
Me: very well...so what does the Queen bee do?
DS: the queen bee lays eggs, the thrown bee just flies around eating (:p) and the worker bee does all the work all the time.
Me: oh is it...that's good to know honey !
After a little while he says: mommy, you are just a worker bee, you do all the work and u r working all the time. :)

Man!!!! Was I contented to hear this...you bet I was :)

Motherhood is in fact a bliss....proud and blessed to be enjoying it !
