Sensitive

And Sensible...
Cobwebs irritate me!!! I have been eyeing them for quite some time (Ahhmmmm time == months). This weekends task was bringing all those cobwebs down with a bang!!!

So prompt came out the broom and eyeing at the ones reachable to me, I started cleaning them.
Next, came the turn of the ones that were high up on the ceiling. No super woman here, a quick calculation and realised, I would need a chair to help me reach out and clean up. While still in that groove decided not to break the rhythm and asked for help instead.

Thought should ask for help from Sunny who was playing in the kitchen. Cuckoo is more accomodating and ready to help all the time and Sunny on the other hand has to be pleaded, forced, and begged to help most of the times.

Today was an exception. Sunny looking at me staring at the walls asked me if I needed help.

Sunny - Mumma you no reach?
Me  - Yes Baba
Sunny - Do you need a chair?
Me - jaw-dropped-shaking-my-head in affirmative

He was sitting surrounded by his bfast plate and few veggie bags (which I had got out of the fridge and happily had left it there). Whilst he was busy playing with his Favorite set of cars, rolling them up and down and back and forth on the kitchen platform, he did pay attention to whatever I was asking of him. Thats what caused the jaw to drop ya!!!

So he obediently gets up, picks up his plate and pushes the veggie bags away and then stands infront of the dining table for a good 5 mins. On enquiring what was taking him long he asks which chair do you want? I said any would do. He contemplates and then brings me a chair, places near me and goes about playing with his car.
I continue getting rid of the cobbys. I climb up the kitchen platform and go about doing my work.

Turn around to find the boy was no more playing with his cars and was more interested in alignin the chair to wherever I was. Keeping it as accessible to me as possible.

What was sweet was when I was done cleanin and ready to get off the kitchen platform and climbing down on the chair, Sunny just got up and came to hold the chair!
When I looked questioningly at him, he smiled and said "I holding chair, otherwise you fall na Mumma!

How sensitive and sensible!!!

Luv ya mumma!!
