Tooth Fairy and stuff

Aasim lost his lower two incisors. Had to be extracted as the permanent ones were already peeking from behind, to his credit he did not cry at all, and though he does not believe in tooth fairy stuff he gets to buy a lego for himself…

  • Sometimes, I wonder how people learn to raise families. </random>

    • Mostly trial and error, some just don’t and some just don’t succeed

      • Pray, and how does one measure “success” ?

        • I can relate to it

          No, instant gratification -no fixed answer. I would like to measure my success on how happy/satified my child grows up to be.

          • Re: I can relate to it

            So how do you know how (un)happy/(un)satisfied your kid is/grows up to be?

            If this thread doesn’t make sense, please read Jhumpa Lahiri’s Namesake for a clearer picture.

            • Re: I can relate to it

              The answer to “how” is concrete but too long for what I am willing to write at the fag end of my day….

              More simply put, in any relationship, if you can’t gauge (read measure in defineable terms) how happy / satisfied each of you are then you have failed anyways.

              Think about that 🙂

  • Lego! My theory is that every child needs food, clothes, education, and a set of lego blocks. I was one of the deprived ones coz these blocks were not easily available in India when I was a little kid. Hope Aasim has a great time building dream-stuff.

    • He He! Do you think that Aasim’s father buys him lego for him alone 😉

        🙂 I never got to play with anything similar to Lego. Hopefully, I should be able to start playing with them soon enough 😉
