Superpowers :)

Sometimes kids just make up excuses to cry. Maybe because they are tired or feeling sick. Tonight Alson started whining about;

Alson: I want superpowers. I want it, I want it, I want, (continues crying and whining)

Me: okay. If u want super powers you need to practice running so become fast, practice lifting so become like hulk, practice working so you become smart

Alson: no. Does naheek practice? He is flash now. I don't want those superpowers.

Me: so what superpower do you want?

Alson: I want fire and ice powers.

Me: why?

Alson: so I could freeze BAD guys and melt them at police.

Me: who are bad guys? What do you mean bad?

Alson: people who break see-saw at parks, people who litter and people who bully

Me: that's a nice thought.

Alson: yes, n I want a unique mask with red and white, a special consume too...

Me: have u ever seen any real person with superpowers.

Alson: yes, you! You know what I am doing without looking. Like when I m in toilet or when I write on the wrong side of book..(Ofcourse I do, if he is too quiet he is up to something)

Me: you can also be a super hero when u grow up because ur my son. And you can for sure catch bad guys if you keep your mind at it. Now let's sleep. Good night

When I Grow Up

A compilation of discussions and statements by Alson on what it will be when he grows up.

- When I grow up I will never sleep. I will be awake for hundred years.. And mommy that's a long time,

- When I grow up I will keep all my toys on the ground and I will never pick them up. I will walk on them and play with them all the time,

- When I grow up I will not do any writing or any school work. I will spend all my time reading books only,

- When I grow up I will not share my room, table, chairs, plates, toys or any space with any kid, specially Kokki. I will have my own room, table and toys - in fact I will own a house on my own keep only animals and live in a tent just outside of it,

- When I grow up I will watch Cartoon Network (I don't let Alson watch Cartoon Network) all the time. The TV will be suspended from the ceiling, so I can watch while I lie down,

- When I grow up I will make a Robot with my boy friends. The robot will work and earn money. The robot will do whatever I say, 

- When I grow up I won't have cold showers but I will have fun inside the tub or a bucket each and every time I have a shower. 

Yes! I wish you every happiness and joy it brings you. Whether it includes all of the above or none from them.
