His latest obsession...

...is to drive a car.

Every now and then, at least 4-5 times a day he will tell me that he wants to drive a car. Not the toy ones but the real ones "Mumma jaise mujhe bhi car chalani hai!" I had told him that he can drive when he turns 18 years old when he asked me the first time. So whenever I will say "Nahi. Aap abhi nahi chala sakte" he will repeat it "Jab main 18 ka ho jayunga tab chalayunga?"

But there are times when he will continue to insist by adding "Nahi main 18 ka hoon!" I will laugh and ask him "Who turned 4 not so long ago? And who got this gift on his birthday?" by pointing at few of the gifts he had received on his birthday. He will laugh and say "Main!"

And what makes me go on cloud 9 is when he will insist that Mumma will drive the car and not Papa! Then Hubby will joke "Teri Ma se pahle chala raha hoon main!" :D

:) You know it reminds of this one day when D sat on the driver seat[engine was off o'course]. While I was taking stuff out, she insisted on having the car keys, because she had to start the car and move a little bit to the front. She was not driving, she is a kid you see. But she just had to move the car a little bit to the front. These kids..

:) li'l A went thru this phase sometime back, when I was in India on a vacation he would pretend to drive my parents around everywhere..my mom still recalls that phase fondly.

makes them feel grown up :-) Bugsbunny went throught that phase too and Bubbles can't wait to be 16 when she will be eligible to apply for driver's license even though as a toddler she never showed much interest in toy cars.

Orchid: Whatever little things they do, its the grandparents who feel so proud of their feats the most!

2BM: I guess there surely is some gene which comes down to these little men right from their toddler age. I have really started to feel so.
