Another kuttyma post – she has taken over my life and blog<\/p>\n

We make deals. Deals to get things done fast. It started innocent and now she knows how to work me.<\/p>\n

Every time she says “Let us make a deal mommy” my heart skips a beat. I know she has got some outrageous idea and hopes that I will comply.<\/p>\n

Like this one,<\/p>\n

“After I come from school let us go to different library everyday mommy” – Yes I am all for library visits but every day after school\/work? Gosh<\/p>\n

“I will eat if you read to me” has been a long time favorite. I usually comply. It has changed these days. “I will eat, you feed me and read me XYZ book”. I can multi-task but this is stretching it a bit too far.<\/p>\n

and on the same vein<\/p>\n

“I get bored while I in tub mommy. You read to me and wash my hair. I will not cry” – she hates getting her hair washed so she makes this “deal”<\/p>\n

As much as I rejoice at the fact that many of her “deals” revolve around books. I find it very manipulative. I am not sure if it is an age thing or if it is her. Time will tell I guess.<\/p>\n

For now, I indulge well at times<\/p>\n
