Anjali has an impeccable sense of logic which she uses in argument.
For instance, yesterday night, as I was getting the children to bed, she said
"Mummy, Can i paint this now?" (holding out a painting sheet which, if we started on now, would take atleast half an hour to work on)
"Nope. You have to sleep. i will set out the paints before I go to office and you can paint in the afternoon when you return from school"
(High voice)"But you said that I could paint after we returned from the library!"
"I said that you could play after you returned from the library"
A beat
"But painting is playing mummy!"
===========================================================================
Husband was making Anjali practice the piano.
"Can you repeat Anjali?"
"There is no repeat sign in this page daddy. i dont have to repeat!"
