Mazha Disco Zhala! — A Little Sports Day Memory

Mumma……एक good news आहे …माहितेय काय .

मी ना sports day मध्ये  select झाला ….Lemon spoon competition मध्ये ..

आता  sports day ला मला फक्त  clap करायला नको …

        Ohh wow that is a really great news…

माहितेय खरा तर मी second येत होता पण end moment ला ना  dwij baba ने track change केला आणि तो  out झाला आणि मग मी  select झाला मी slow होता थोडा पण बरोबर track बघून चालत होता ना 😊

My little one was all pumped up.

Last day of unit test and we have our sports day..wow thats something new exams and sports on same day….☢

🏃 Sports Days Then and Now

My mind in flashback where we had elaborate ,close to one week ,sports celebration where every one would participate in games which they want in the preliminary selection rounds . On final day of sports week finalist would perform.That entire week there would be no studies,just be out on ground and play ,cheer your friends and have fun.So even if you do not win there was never a feeling of loser.

One reason was may be for no studies during sports week and then fun we had just participating was enough to forget the pain of losing.

Frankly I was never good at sports but fun we had playing those simple games like Lemon spoon ,Potato race, Needle and thread ,Skipping ,Langadi ,kho kho, kabaddi I still remember .

Back to present times…

During regular school hours someday kids are having preliminary rounds and on sports day only winners would participate..rest all clap…grrr….me not liking this…but who really cares parent like it or not…

😂 So What Exactly Was "Disco"?

Mumma माझा  disco झाला …

काय ?

I was not aware of any preliminary rounds happening in school for sports..

we are just in primary section and now have started real studies after playing and singing in preprimary school.

I was wondering annual day is just  done now कसला  disco

तुझा काय झाला ?

अरे  disco

कशात  disco..(I am still clueless but repeating same question is so dumb..)

ती running race होती ना  मी बरोबर धावला ग but teacher saidतू  disco झाला …..

It was the Eureka moment when I got what the disco is!

but no way I could laugh..

I had to use all my skills to show extreme disappointment .

How can a mother laugh when her little boy is disco..😅...............disqualified.

Its third standard Sports Day![poor kids they have alternate year sports day and annual day]

I was in splits again….and this time I could share it with him as he knows what disqualified is and what disco is and off course he is two  years older....  big boy:) ...to laugh at his own jokes.....

🥄 The Lemon Spoon Strategy

All right..

We both geared up for final lemon spoon competition.

"Mumma तो  दात पडलाय ना त्या gapमध्ये मी spoon ठेवेन मग ते हलणार नाही 

(😉 ohh we have natural advantage this year)

>>>हा चालेल  तसाच कर 

हा passage आहे ना mumma तो  perfect आहे तिथेच आपण  practice करू ..

>>>That is perfect bachhu..

तू sofa वर बस आणि get set go म्हन मग मी येईन 

All rite…

There we go..

His strategies ,management skills ,enthusiasm and practice…He is already a winner for me:)

My Disco Boy....

Probably school days are some of the happiest days of our lives. We are the queens and princes of the little protected world our parents create for us.

Years later, we watch our own children growing up and notice how much has changed. Sometimes we accept it, sometimes we crib about it, and sometimes we simply let it go. But somewhere along the way, while watching them, we get to relive a little bit of our own childhood.
