If Newton figured out gravitation when he saw an apple fall from a tree, he must have figured out inertia when he saw a child idling through the morning routine.
Case in point:
* If the Scout is taking a bath, he wants to continue with the bath till the water freezes over.
* If the Scout is eating his favorite breakfast (fruitloops or raisins or bububu (blueberry)), he wants to continue eating them till the box is empty.
* If the Scout wants to run around in his diapers, he is going to run around till the evil mommy chases him and drags him to get dressed.
I guess, the "greater force" that Newton's laws talk about is the mommy here! :P

ReplyDeleteScout sounds like an adorable kid
I love watching the inertia go out the window when I say something like 'lets get ready to go to the zoo' or 'shall we go to xyz in an auto for a change?' :) Obviously only on days when I mean to do those things, otherwise all hell will break lose later on!
hahahahaah! The diaper running seems to be pretty common in this side of the world :)
ReplyDeleteGood one! Nothing as cute as a kid running in diapers...miss that now they're 'so big'!! Enjoy him :)
ReplyDeleteAgree with Starry. Babies in diapers are adorable. (if said diaper is clean :P)
ReplyDeleteArundhati: Yep. Bribery works at most ages I believe. ;)
ReplyDeleteR's mom: And especially when you have 5 mins to walk out the door.., right?
starry: You wouldn't be saying that if you knew I had to hold him down with my knee sometimes to get a diaper changed. :)
TPL: We have this interactive fountain (kids can turn knobs and water shoots out from various spouts etc) in a park here. You should see the toddlers frolicking in their diapers / shorts there.. :) [And there are waterproof / swimming diapers in case that 'what if..' thought crossed your mind.. ]
ReplyDeleteAren't kids soooooo damn cute in diapers? Even my otherwise skinny Junior looks plump :)

Re- moms and their little ones - its usually Newton's third law that applies
ReplyDeleteFor every (positive) action by the mom - there is a (negative) reaction by the child
