I think, I have started agreeing with other mums that our children do seem to on the ‘early start’ mode more than I would have liked to.
My 4.5 year old’s 4.5 year old friend in response to my question, ‘So have you made new friends at your new school?’ replies, ‘ No, but I did make a boyfriend’!
My 4.5 year old was not impressed, ‘Boyfriend? Boys are NOT fun!’. Thank god for that. May that attitude last another 16 years and we can breathe a sigh of relief 😉
Even if they don’t care about ‘Boys’ they do seem to care about ‘makeup’. Poohi and a friend were busy pretend playing ‘buying makeup’. Although how she picked that up is beyond me! I NEVER ‘buy makeup’ the way they are pretending to! All the crayons and pencils are the ‘makeup’ that they are trying on!
Any Excuse to Write... 
1st
1st things first 😉
Ha ha gud one 😉
Now back to comment 😉 Gosh, Smitha, you do have a breather.. atleast Poohi thinks boys are boring now. Good for you!!! Wait another year and things might just change! When I went to drop off R at school, 3 girls came to say Hello to him, and his sweet teacher even made a comment about it and ended it with a ‘Oooooohh’ 😉 LOL!!
Ooooh la la ! R is already a heart breaker 😉 Thanks so much for that – here I was hoping that she stays like this for the next 16 years 😉
Awww he broke my heart too like those chambers on the pineapple he ws holding 😛
He is sooo cute 😉
Pal, that incident at the studio….R is a heart throb wherever he goes… 😉 😉
Pal, U and me gonna make a nice partner of cribbing moms. We can call up each other and crib about all those gf’s our sons will date 😥
Buhahahahahaha 😈
Hw cn u crib abt those sweet babies che 😉
Wait till u get one, Swaru…
😉
i am joining u both too..
sigh boys
Wow… Can I keep my daughter frozen in time… I like this 2.5 years of age!
Me too, Garima! Me too!
Boyfriend at 4.5… God! how quick are kids these days???
Crayons for make-up…. that sounds cool. 🙂
Seriously! Scary, isn’t it 🙂
Oh yes! It’s an early start now-a-days and more so for girls. I see that boys are still a step behind the girls in these matters. We’ll have a learn and de-learn a lot of things as they grow up!
Yes, it sure looks like that , doesn’t it? And they grow up too quickly!
lucky you..poohi says boys are boring. ….
I truely wish she remain same for next few yrs atleast 🙂
Hopefully 🙂 Fingers crossed!
And good that she is pretending to buy makeup not forcing you to go and buy for her 😆 😆
No, she knows what she can get away with and what she cannot 🙂
😀 😀
Poohi is such a sweetheart Smithus! 😀
Boys are not fun will stick for another few more years!! 😀 😀
Hopefully, Pix! And it’s wonderful to see you here 🙂
Boyfriends at 4.5 years :O.. I would totally agree with you, I hope the other gender remains uncool for my future kid(s) till they are 16 😛
Guess, thats what all us parents(and would be) would hope for 🙂
She has started mingling with other children, so the ‘buying’ make-up word must have fancied her.
Yes, I do think she picked it up from her friends.
Boy-friend thing be, they will discuss without knowing the meaning…mothers have to cross all these stages. Poohi is a good kid and your kid…try to take everything easily, atleast for some more years and enjoy her antics! You have got so many friends here to share your experiences!!
🙂 That is what I am hoping for, and you are all there to come for advise 🙂
Take care.
You too, Sandhya
ha ha ha 🙂 🙂 But she said boys are not fun.. 😦 grr…
She didn’t mean “Big Boys” Kanagu
LOL, Kanagu took offense 🙂
Oh God…really Smithu…these girls are really too fast…Boyfriend at less than 5 yrs… 😉 🙂 Looks like the latest cool attitude… 😉
Please! I need some more boy-friend free years 🙂
I dont know, make-up never was a fancy thing with my girls…even now, they dont use any cosmetics…I dont know how things will turn later…
Poohi has never been interested in makeup much. So I was surprised that they were playing it..
Hugs to Poohi…get her some child-friendly make-up set na… 🙂
No n, I prefer her to be ignorant of things like makeup for a little longer pls 🙂
Poohi is into make-up buying?? heee I love watching little girls when they do all this pretend play. Once I was watching my neighbour’s 5 yr old playing shopping and almost had a punctured bladder when she went up to her “salesgirl” friend and said “I would like to see a Cup 36” 😯
Poohi is not into makeup buying – this was the first time I saw them playing it. LOL! CUP 36″ – someone has been observing lots!!!
Ohh the BF/GF thing is getting on my nerves. I have no idea what will happen to my mental state when this boy turns 16 😥
Same here 😦
I too hope my girls find boys ‘boring’ for some more years! makeup seems almost harmless in comparison-all the better if it’s crayons! enjoy these days Smitha
When M said,”Maa, Baba, boys and marriage are disgusting” my husband couldn’t stop smiling for a week!
I think this is what I fear..Like you won’t teach your children all the stuff but they’ll get it from peers and other sources !
Though it’s cute at times but makes you think,isn’t it ?
I guess every generation thinks that of the next, what with exposure and all. But boyfriend and make up at age 4! Too much. Wonder what’s going to happen when I have a kid :-s
Aww.. your daughter is a darling !!!.. I cant really imagine how kids will be 2-3 generations from now !!
Err I dnt even want to tell them when i made my first BF 😛 They mite call me olddddd-fashioned then 😉
First ur hairstyle and nw their own make-up wah wah!
Oh kids are developing way faster in these age of media and technology!!
🙂
Boys are boring???? hmmppphhh !!!
hahah truth tastes like that wonly 😉
Another 16 years??? LOL 😀 That would REALLY pushing your luck !!!
Haha even I used to love makeup as a kid. Funny how I picked it up…coz my mom never used to like it. Well all that changed when i turned utterly tomboyish during my teenage and dropped the makeup mania. The effects last till this day and my dad keeps complaining about the good old days! 🙂 LOL
LOL, Smits!! Know what, Poohi has company in Namnam in her ‘BOYS are not fun’ attitude and you have company in me in wishing that attitude would stay for another 16years 😀
Lets hope our combined wishes work:)
The other day I asked her if she had made any friends in school and she started listing down names of all these girls, and when I asked if she didnt have any boys in her class, she just blurted out,’ Oh, boys are not my friends, they dont play, they always fight!’
I know! Same here! She refuses to have anything to do with boys 🙂 I’m certainly not complaining 🙂
4.5 is way too early… !!! I dunno… I ask Hriday all the time… but even at 6 he is least concerned !! 😐
Sultan Bhai – you scared me! For a minute I thought some scary don had entered my page 😦 4.5 is way too early. This little girl has an elder sister, so I suspect she has picked up stuff from her 😦
Good souls need not fear Sultan BHAI !!!!! 😉
Does that mean that I am classified as a ‘good soul’?
Btw , have you resorted to referring to yourself as ‘Bhai’ these days 😉
🙂 My girl is 3.5,so im yet to hear such dialogues..It is fun watching kids grow…
Lucky you, Nimmy 🙂
How are you Smitha…How is Poohi??
Am good, Nimmy, How about you?
Well..cute poohhi..as you said, let her feel the same for another 16yrs…Boys are fun ..she is right
But girls are…That is what aryan feels. He even notices the color of the hair clip his friend wears on a particular day and next day insist me to wear the same!!!! tough time for me till he meeet his girl friend…..
awww she is so cute, i love when little girls play with makeup
She never touches my make up normally, so I was quite surprised to see them play that – guess it was her friend’s idea 🙂
a freinds 6 yr old nephew was very sad because a girl in the class kissed another guy (thankfully on the cheek) and became his gf 😉
LOL! That is so cute!!! Goodness! Kids do learn early these days!
boyfriend? at 4.5 yrs? really? WOW.
I was all shocked when I heard it too 😦
This is so cute. Reminds me of S talking about which boy in class is marrying which girl, about same time last year 🙂
Children! 🙂
