Date - 15-Aug-2008
Aditya's Age - 6 years and 11 months
Place - Singapore
Location - I was walking with Aditya towards my friends Home from Boon Lay MRT
What Happened?
Aditya: "Appa I have decided something very important?"
Me: "Did you decide? What is this all about?"
Aditya: "I'm not going to get married very soon!"
Me: "Whaaaaaaaat!!!!"
Stunned by this statement...i stopped walking and looked at him, he was very determined and confident about what he spoke
Me: "Why Aditya! Why did you decided something like this?"
Aditya: "I want to work for loong time, I want to visit various countries including Egypt, do some business and make lots of money!"
this was getting serious - i pinched my hand and wanted to understand whether this is coming from my "soon becoming 7 years old sons mouth" - He was right he really stunned me his wedding plans, this was really happening.
Me: "What happens if you really like someone Aditya - will you get married"
Aditya: thought for a while and "Yes Appa, may be I'll consider marrying then"
Moral of the Story:
Never discuss important matters when children are around particularly the active ones with their Antenna's open in every direction. He was actually overhearing my conversation with one of my friends couple of days ago when I was giving some advice on getting married at the age of 29. I'm going to be careful from now on!!!!
