Sometimes i wonder.....that it might be easier to fight a war than to dine out with kids...not to mention at the end of the war you walk away with pride as opposed to walking away with embarassment! When it was just Sohan alone, it wasn't that tough....not to mention with him being a poor eater. Now with Nimmerta and Sohan together.....sometimes Jagdev and I return from dinner more stressed than we were before going out.
Nimmerta is a real handful...she refuses to sit still in the baby chair....wants to grab everything on the table and now, insist on eating on her own! During one of our dinner outings last week, the food for the table next to us arrived first. Oh....you should have seen her.....she was screaming and pulling my arms to get me to bring her food from the other table....thank God for the waitress who quickly ran in and got her a plate of rice. Should have seen her excitement and how quite she became after that.
So you see on one side we had a kid who was trying to feed herself with a spoon....which looked more like she was trying to distribute the rice to the unknown species on the floor.......and on the other hand we had Sohan Singh who we were struggling to feed him even a few bites of his food! Therefore you can imagine the stress level there......handling these 2 kids while trying to fill up your own tummy!!
At the end of every dine out where Nimmerta is with us...i find myself apologising to the waiter and waitresses for the mess created. Luckily, majority of the places we go they are familiar with us........sigh.......
