Solution - New dress

2010-09-02T18:06:00.001+05:30

Mummy bought me new clothes, they are a set of 3 T-shirts. I have not worn them yet! and I remind Mama , that I have new clothes...and Mama says they are to be worn on Ganesh Chaturthi day!
So I told her...Mama,
one I will wear at home
one we will wear outside
one we will keep for Ganpathi day!

Permission

2010-09-01T18:06:00.000+05:30

I know the meaning of the word Permission...Grandpa explained it to me one day!
Then I used the word again appropriately!
I was playing with Grandpa's office papers...and Grandpa told me not to do it...
so..I replied, Grandpa, I will not do it again!
Next time I will ask for your PERMISSION.

Rakhi

2010-08-30T21:23:00.001+05:30

Rono: Mama, I want a little brother and sister
Rono: My sister will tie Rakhi on my hand...

I am glad my brother is here

2010-08-29T21:28:00.003+05:30

Today I woke up and said this to my Mom, "I am so glad Arjun has come".

Now, I cant wait for him to grow up and play with me...Arjun when will that day come?

I want both

2010-08-28T21:24:00.002+05:30

Most times when I am presented with a choice, I say I want both for eg:

Mama: Do you want a brother or a sister (a few months back, Mom asked me this).
Rono: First I want a brother, then I want a sister.

Mama: You want a toy airplane or car..
Rono: I want a toy airplane and a car...

My Mom is now wondering how to explain to me that sometimes you have to choose...however hard that may be..

Rono Dada and Garjun...

2010-08-27T21:44:00.000+05:30

These are Grandma's names for us...

Rono Dada, is because now I am a big brother and Arjun has earned his nick name because he has to scream for attention...you see I make all the noise through the day..and do be heard he has to raise his voice over the din...

Rono: Mama, I like Arjun very much…
Mama: I like Ronav and Arjun very much…
Arjun was by himself in the room when I went then, I made a hue and cry and complained “There is nobody with Arjun”…..
As soon as I wake up, I have to spot him and when I sleep, he has to be in the room. I am the first to reach his bedside when he cries…
He is also showered with kisses many times a day. Especially the soles of his feet, which I can reach when someone is carrying him around
Today we went out shopping, with Mama and grandma and while shopping I checked with Mama, who is taking care of Arjun at home…My mom comforted me and said it is Grandpa

Hysteria

2010-08-21T09:06:00.000+05:30

I don’t like to let Mama out of my sight…especially when she goes into the bathroom, I will knock on the door, cry as if heavens has fallen down and generally be hysterical……
My Mom is still figuring out this phenomenon

Dont buy from the roadside vendor

2010-08-19T23:59:00.004+05:30

My Mom bought the Indian Flag from a vendor at a signal. I then pointed out to her after a couple of days that she had refused the following toys for the reason that they are from the vendors at the signals...
1. Horns to wear on your head
2. Santa caps
3. Plastic flowers in a vase...

.....and then I told her I want those Horns...I also my asked my Mom to clean the flag..

Hairstyle

2010-08-19T00:22:00.000+05:30

Rono: Mama, i dont like you in this hairstyle, change it
( i said this to my Mama, when i found she had braided her hair, I then proceeded to remove her hairband).

I like you, Mama

2010-08-17T00:19:00.001+05:30

Rono: Mummy I like you (suddenly while watching TV)
Rono: Mummy I like you very much..( after some more thought)
Mama: I love you and Arjun ( while giving me a warm hug)

Sky is so low....

2010-08-16T23:01:00.003+05:30

My Mom was in the hospital when Arjun was born, and my Pappa would take me to see her... I am relentless in my barrage of questions...Why? Why? Why? to the world around me...and to one of the questions when I noticed my Pappa had run out of ideas, I responded, because the 'sky is so low'.

When my Pappa..runs out of responses to my "Why's" he had responded with, "because the sky is so low".....on one occassion

Nursery Rhymes

2010-08-15T18:31:00.006+05:30

When my Ajji asked me if I know nursery Rhymes, I responded " My toys do"

School…

2010-08-12T09:02:00.000+05:30

My school’s name is “Small World”, this is the second year I am going to the same school, My Mom told me I was going to the next class and when I arrived home on the first day, I said, Mom’s it was the same school…
I want to go to “Big World” now.
There are many reasons I sight to not go to school, like I want to play with Arjun now tops the list…one other reason is I don’t like it.

Good Job Mummy

2010-08-10T18:31:00.000+05:30

My Dream

2010-08-08T18:47:00.001+05:30

This warmed the hearts of my Grandma, Grandpa and Mama...no end.

Solution to Problems

2010-08-01T00:23:00.000+05:30

( I say this when I think I can resolve any issue at hand, that Mama or me is faced with)...

My brother's Attire

2010-07-28T18:46:00.000+05:30

I dont like my brother wearing caps...Every time I spot one...I am sure to take it off....Period.

Ada

2010-07-22T09:04:00.000+05:30

Ada is my cousin and a very dear friend. I always have Ada in my conversations, she is 7 days younger then me…..we get along really well and we fight a lot too…over the very same things…

I am right, you are wrong

2010-07-20T00:23:00.000+05:30

I say this to anybody when I have proven right on any issue...and I keep saying it until the person I am saying it acknowledges the fact that I was right and that person was wrong...

My brother ARJUN

2010-07-15T18:44:00.000+05:30

My brother is 'Arjun', there was soem discussion before my parents and me decided that ...that will be his name...we toyed with several options before we finally decided....

I love my brother...all he does is sleeps, drinks his milk and does his potty...I want him to play with me...

Brothers!

2010-07-15T18:03:00.001+05:30

My favorite person

2010-07-10T18:54:00.000+05:30

My favorite person in the world was Mama all this while..now she has been upstaged and ARJUN is my favorite person...

Fun with cousins

2010-07-02T18:34:00.002+05:30

My cousins visited, and was it FUN..FUN and FUN all the way....some pictures from that time. I also tried to be the POLICEMAN and sometimes took the law into my own hands and tried sorting differences with my cousins by siding with one and hitting the other...
We ate, played and even bathed together...
I was very upset when they left and was inconsolable for half hour after the green taxi took them to the Airport...
My mom has promised me we will meet often...

Day one, Arjun

2010-06-28T12:29:00.002+05:30

My baby brother

2010-06-28T11:50:00.001+05:30

I am more than DELIGHTED!!!
My baby brother was born today, at 7.05 hrs.
I was so very happy...and I kept pointing him out to everyone saying....MY BABY...MY BABY..
My parents are very HAPPY too...

Fatty Bum Bum

2010-06-22T09:05:00.000+05:30

Me and Ada, also talk about potty and susu, we get together hold hand and say “lets talk about she and susu”…this does not go well with all the adults who ask us to not talk about these things…but we derive immense pleasure out of this.
Fatty bum, bum, this is what we say when we drop our pants and expose our behinds…we have been scolded many times for this act.

My thoughtfulness

2010-05-16T18:49:00.000+05:30

It rained one day, and we were in a play area with a slide....and I wanted to slide...and then Grandpa told me...its wet...not now..
Then I said to Grandpa...Grandpa you slide and I'll sit on your lap...

Expectation

2010-05-15T18:42:00.000+05:30

One day my Mom told me that I will soon have my baby brother or sister....the idea grew on me..and so did my Mom's belly....

....and one day I asked my Mama " Why did you eat the baby?"

Namesake

2010-05-15T18:39:00.001+05:30

I am fascinated that two people can have the same names...I have a cousin who is called Ganesha and I know of Lord Ganesha...
There are two Aditya's in my class..
Now I want there to be TWO RONAV's
So when My papa says Ganesh is visiting, I clarify, which one? Lord Ganesh or my cousin.

My catch word....

2010-04-14T13:11:00.000+05:30

I got an idea!!!

Height

Helicopter- I can fly this one!

2010-02-20T17:58:00.003+05:30

Word Play

2010-02-19T10:00:00.001+05:30

Some words I like to use....

Imagination
(Mama explained this word to me, when i was bothered by a creature in the night, she said it was my imagination, now I know it means it is in my head and not real)

Impression
(My use of this word is in this sentence, when I colour my hand with paint I want to print it on paper, sometimes on the wall and say, see my 'impression', sometimes on the sand , I can see my foot impression)

Invisible
(from a TJ episode, I know what that word means, when Jerry becomes invisible and torments Tom)

Shadow
(I am fascinated with shadows, its one of the times I appear big).

Electricity
(When I am asked to stay away from electrical gadgets then I reason out with Mama saying it has electricity in it...and if I touch it I will be 'shock laga').

Instruction Manual
( this is usually a leaflet with my toys, which tells us what to do, I look at it and say to Mama, you put the batteries here like this).

Names of my friends-

2010-02-17T10:10:00.002+05:30

These are some of the names from school,

Rahul Pai, Mama knows him, he tells Mama about me, Aunty, Rono was crying today..

Lakshya, Mama for a long time thought her name was 'Raksha' and thought I was mispronouncing when one day mama read her batch. ITs Lakshya after all.

Abhisheik, he is my friend

Shriya Goel, I mentioned her when she played with me on the slide.

Catherine, she is the bully in the van, a little bit big girl, in my opinion

Who has done these naughty things?

2010-02-16T10:07:00.003+05:30

When I see some mess, or when I see some colour marks on the walls of the house, or other things which should Not be and Mama will not apporve...

I say, "Who has done these naughty things?"

Mama replies, " I think it is Mama"

Then, I admit, No...its Rono.

Height Order :)

2010-02-06T00:20:00.005+05:30

Mama: Rono, Eat your lunch, drink your milk.
Rono: If I eat this, then what will happen?
Mama: Then you will grow, biiig and tall
Mama: first as tall as Mamma, then Pappa , then Gappa!!
Rono: No..first Gamma!

Cause and Effect

2010-02-06T00:03:00.003+05:30

Many of my line of questioning starts from the phrase,

If , I do this , then what will happen?

If I eat this, then what will happen?
If I fill water in this, then what will happen?
If I wear this jacket, then what will happen?
If I go to school, then what will happen?

....and the list continues.

Mama: We will buy a new one
Rono: Mama, you buy a new one…

Reward from school

2010-01-28T10:17:00.000+05:30

One day I arrived from school in my van, and was holding a white stapled envelope, and as soon as I spotted Mama I gave it to her. On top of it was written, “Ronav, Reward for good work, to be eaten after lunch” and a smiley. Mom was delighted, and she asked me what I had done to get this reward.

Mama: Rono, what good work did you do?

Rono: I did naughty things in school.

Ofcourse the lollylop inside did not have to wait for after lunch and was consumed soon after.

The Doctors services are remembered for everybody else as well…....when anyone gets hurt or is unwell , I tell my Mama, Take the maid to the Doctor, take Jerry to the Doctor or take Tom to the Doctor.,

The other day I had a cough and was taken to the Doctor, and after taking medicine I asked Mama., “is Rono better now?"

Where is my Birthday gone?

2009-07-03T10:12:00.001+05:30

It was Papa’s Birthday, Mama told me. One thing Mama could not get me to do was, wish Papa Happy Birthday! Whenever she asked me to wish Pappa that day, I would revert with “ Where is MY Birthday gone”? Finally we celebrated papa’s Birthday and my 2 years and 9 months Birthday.

Mama tells me I will have 3 candles on my Birthday, this year.

I like hammers, screw drivers, spanners, and all other tools, Needless to mention a large portion of my toys are these. And now, I don’t want toy tools , I insist on the real tools. I insisted that Gappa buys me a loooong screwdriver, and yes I do remember it when we visit Gappa and ask to hold it in my hand.

The Black and Decker set and the Handby Manny tools are my favorites too

I love the concept of mama and child…..I point out “ teche Mama aahe”
a. When I see a mother and child on TV
b. When I see a big and small of any animal on TV (baby duck and mother duck, baby monkey and mother monkey)
c. When I see pictures in books of mother and child, both people and animals.
d. With my toys.. baby teddy bear and Mama teddy bear…

I also enact this scene with my comments…
Baby crying….waa waa…(with baby teddy bear in hand)..
(Then I locate the mama teddy bear and say) Teche mama aahe..came from office..and then I get the two close together…for a happy ending

Toys

2009-01-15T22:40:00.004+05:30

My list of toys...cars..barney, teddy bear, hammer, lego set, baseball bat and balls, elmo, tool set, ducks, fish....

My collection has increased because
a. I always ask for 'gift' when someone comes home..
b. I am being pampered by all....grandpa,grandma sona maushi, nikhil kaka and pappa..
c. My mom is fond of toys herself...and she loves the disney store..and all other toy stores..

I heard that we are going to be carrying a bag only for my toys when we go back to India.

I love the bachna song…I can sing upto ..lo mein aaagaya…and then ‘he ho’ actually I like the entire album..I like ranbir, mahi and dipika…I also like bipasha…..
Khuda jaane..
Small town girl
Jogi mahi
Naughty boy (my version of lucky boy).

I also like the songs from Jab we met…..and my favorite is…the unlikely slow song…Na hai yeh..pana..
Nagada..Nagada I like and do the bhangra with my hands when this song plays..
Yeh ishk ..i like too… I like shahid kapoor ..I call him nagada ..nagada…

when a familiar song plays on the radio…I rush to the radio, dopping anything I was doing before and stand still and then recall the picturization form the song…....like raining..for the na hai yeh pana song…

I can tell a song by the music piece ..the music piece can be in the beginning or in the end or in between.

Oh yes..I also like Om shanti Om , Kabhie Kabhie Aditi and Pappu cant dance sala

car drive

2009-01-13T19:37:00.004+05:30

I absolutely love the act of driving a car…I will pretend drive many times a day…
I also insist on doing this on our mall visits as seen here…

abc draw...

2009-01-13T19:35:00.000+05:30

I have developed a huge fondness for paper and pen...as soon as I am up and about I hunt for a pen and a paper and rush to the nearest adult and have them draw for me…

My requests include…

abc fan (what I expect the adult to do is draw a fan for me..)
Wire (then a wire has to be drawn)
Switch ( then I click the switch and say……fan firato)..

The other objects I have my folks draw for me are..
Knives
Duck
Cake
Balloon
Cooker
Auto
And many others..

And after every one of this list we must to the abc fan routine again…

Apple picking

2009-01-09T22:57:00.004+05:30

One of the first places that Sona Maushi and Nihil kaka took us out to was Apple picking...yes..we went to a farm and could pick apples out of trees..It was too much fun..there were pumpkins , cornfeilds and a farm animals as well!!

for a few outings after this one when we set out elsewhere......I would call out from the car seat and say 'apple picking'

Hammer, thok thok

2009-01-09T22:45:00.004+05:30

I am very fond of Hammers...I use a hammer and bang anything and everything...I also can identify a plier, a scissor, nail etc...I have toy tool sets with all of these tools....

I also like the real tools.....toys wont do sometimes..

I can spend a lot of time working with a real tool box...

I also like sharp things...like scissors and knives...I also know I am not allowed to handle these things...but I view these objects with admiration and say...

'dangerous' and 'papa no no boltil'

Sorry (Soee) Mama

2009-01-09T22:30:00.004+05:30

Sometimes, when i know I am all set to get into trouble...for being naughty...I quickly come up with sorry (soee) mama...again in a sweet special tone...

This is sure to melt my Mama's heart..and keep me away from a scolding!

Mama dont go to office

2009-01-09T22:27:00.002+05:30

This is the line i use when i see my Mama getting all dressed up in the morning. This sentence is delivered with a lot of passion and emotion!
