Two species of gigantic animals were strewn all over the house - one, the extinct dinosaur and the other one matching in size and which wished if it were extinct like the dinosaurs too, than coexisting with humans. I donot know what is the imagery that you created by now - but i was talking about two set of jigsaw puzzles that were strewn all over the house - one, of a herd of elephants and the second , of a pack of dinosaurs.
"Pillere, clean this up, you are testing my patience , if i clean it up, you are not going to get them again", the 'benevolent' mother in me screamed
Gautham gave me a suspicious 'don't -you-dare-touch-my-things' kind of look, but Sid looked at me and said in a gentle voice :
"Amma, I know you will not throw them away"
The angelic Amma spoke again : "What make you think so, you little brat ?! , i will , i will, and i will throw them all away "
Sid again : "But Amma, you always say that you know the value of money, don't you ? ; did this not cost Achan money..? "

The meeting point of your child's playful childhood and logical reasoning is a dangerous time in a parent's life ; with one child on either side of the said confluence , this mother can only pray :D
