I paint with Siddy, read stories (sometimes, sometimes I sleep before the story ends!!), chat about the day with him, make up funny noises and stories, cuddle and roll around in bed, slather him with kisses... but play- not so much.
Especially since he's grown up and all his games involve running around (I don't run!!), playing fighting fighting, playing with super heroes, sports like football and basketball (again something I loathe!!). The few times we do play with Lego or our dominoes, I am so focused on it being proper and correct that I kind of suck the fun out of doing it... Also I'm kind of competitive so that doesn't help either!
All in all, our 'playing' together has pretty much reduced.
Its sad but its true.
On the other hand, he and Aadi have a blast. They run around the house shooting imaginary lasers, race cars on the walls, have basketball games. So when Aadi leaves town for a few days, the poor guy is just so bored with me!
Anyhow, this weekend I have redeemed myself. I have found a way to be initiated into his avengers team!
Yup! I am now an Avenger!
And what you may ask is my super power. Me, Super-lazy-I-don't-ever-want-to-get-up me...
My power is that I am Supermom!!
And my job is to call other superhero or super villain's mums to complain about them!!!!!!!
I was made to call black panther's mum to tell her that he scratched Captain America's shield with his very long claws, and how she must make sure she cuts his claws/nails more often!!
Then I had to call Bucky's mum because Bucky told Super hero Siddhant that he didn't want to be his friend but instead wanted to be a bad boy's friend and how she should make sure he doesn't make any bad friends!!!!
And I have to make these calls right there in front of him!!!
Man what a very important job I have!! I love it. And the best part, according to him, is that I don't have to be in the middle of the fighting, I can simply work from home!
What more can a Super Mom ask for!!!
