Massage me!

Just the other day, I asked my wonderful husband to rub some massage oil on my cramp-ed legs. He poured some of the aromatic liquid and rubbed it on my legs. That was as far as the little bottle of oil got my attention that morning. I left it on the side of the bed and went on with my day. Later in the afternoon, as I busied myself doing dishes, I couldn't hear Aiden at all. In a moment of pure panic, I rushed with soapy hands and scuffling slippers to our bed-room. There he sat like the king of pasha a midst the aloes and lavenders, pouring nothing less than streams of massage oil on his own little legs (and needless to mention on the bedspread, mattress, pillow, clothes etc.. whatever was in the vicinity)  and said 'Look mama! Oil!'
O.k. Honestly, I burst out laughing! It was all too cute for the moment! (not for the cleaning up that followed) I did give him a little lecture later and told him as strictly as I could get myself to that oil was to be poured carefully and best with adult supervision.
He looked at my face, lips carefully rounded, "Mama, are you upset? Can you please give me a hug?".. and then he said the cutest thing ever... "I will answer all your questions, just give me a hug!"

I didn't know how to react... I looked at my little boy, so silent and busy, the 'child-scissors' in one hand, nothing in the other hand and the frayed edges of my bed spread that had been hung out to dry. The toothy grin conveyed that he enjoyed cutting it up.
I learnt that child scissors are sharp! I think I laughed at the end .. primarily because his fingers were still intact! :) 

We decided to do music instead for the rest of the day. And to get to enjoy high notes and low notes, we did a simple exercise. Here's a picture of us enjoying the high notes! 

Aqui estamos disfrutando nuestra leccion de musica despues de un dia muuuuy interesante. No encontrando papel para cortar, automaticamente decidio que un cubrecama que estaba secando cerca de el podia servir! Alli lo encontre dandome una sonrisota al lado del cubrecama con las orillas cortadas! Bueno, asi que decidimos cambiar la actividad del dia!
