Well trust him to do so..
SO what happened yesterday? We took him to the homeopath to treat his insistent cough. We came home with three small bottles of 'sweet white pills' . Pratham just loves them and insisted on holding the bottles with himself. We left him to his antics; kris with his work and me in the kitchen ,getting his dinner ready, little realising what was in store for us!!! When kris went to his room, what does his see!!! Pratham has gulped one ENTIRE BOTTLE OF PILLS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! The cap of the next bottle was unscrewed, all ready to be swallowed when he was caught in the act!!! I m sure u will understand the tension we faced!!! I came in and held him, asking "Puttu, where are the pills? did u eat them?" I took care to tone down my tone so that he doesnt feel as if he is being scolded(thanks to the parenting session i attended recently)!
Me : Puttu, tell me did u eat them all? tell me dear , see if u have then you will have a bad tuummy ache!!
Pratham : No WWWhat? Me?
The poor thing was scared stiff.
Pratham: Mummy what will happen to me?
and he started bawling!!
In the meantime Kris called up the doc and explained tht he had swallowed all the pills.
To our relief, doc said that that was ok. we could give him some milk to reduce the effect!!
It was that simple!!!
We did likewise, Pratham also for once drunk his milk without much ado. and things continued to be hunky dory. :-)
I love HOMEOPATHY :-)
So what happened today?
The Iron wala hadnt returned the clothes and well, i had to go and see what happened to them. But Pratham was busy watching his video and wasnt ready to budge!!! Instead he suggested tht i go and collect them myself !! he would contently watch his video!!! Hmm , why not? i thot
Me : Puttu, i m going to the iron wala, u watch ur video, dont move, dont open the door
Pratham(absentmindedly): ok
SO off i went, finished as fast as i could (nothing blogworthy there) and was back, and lo behold what do i see
THE DOOR IS OPEN, the door stopper is in place, the house LOOKS EMPTY!!!
GOD NO!!!!
I yelled "PRATHAM PRATHAM"
A maid on the floor : Madam, he is here!!!
and pitterpatter come pratham running!!!! All this in a matter of 5 secs but , my mind raced to fearsome terrains!!!
I hugged him!!
Pratham: Mom i was searching for you! Where are you? you left me!!!! (All in english)
Me: Bala, I told u rite? i was off to the iron wala!! Why did u open the door!!!
Pratham: I wanted you!!, you lost no !!! maaka bhay dislee . haav liftakade gelo, tuka sodhchaak(i was afraid, i went to the lift to search for
you)!!
Now what do i say?
And after that, he cried and vomitted!!!! I dont know whether the throwing up was pathological or psychological!!
"Atta Kanala Khada" , i m not leaving this little fellow alone till he becomes 10!!!
