Smile and the World Smiles with You =)

                                                       Boug's Maggie Chipkoos!

So,this is one of my life's most amusing,incorrigible and most adorable memory !! Of my youngest and the naughtiest kid brother,who we fondly call Bougie.This is when our lil gansta was barely a year and a half or something and the four of these brats were left at home under Yours truly's supervision while everyone went off to run errands or do stuff in which kids weren't needed.And that day on popular demand,of course,i made Maggie for them.Those days,something called a "chipkoo" used to be the most popular free gift for kids.And God knows,we had about a million of them!A chipkoo was a slimy ball which was jelly like and would stick itself wherever if thrown hard.So there we were dodging most of the time,in a house full of chipkoos and 4 crazy boys throwing them everywhere possible!Mister Bougs here,being the youngest couldn't really differentiate between maggie 's consistency and chipkoo's..so this is what he did before anyone could see him..made maggie balls and threw it all over the room making his own favorite chipkoos!!The innocence and sheer glee on the baby's face was just too much to scold him or anything..And just like that,we all had our first maggie bath.. days after that..we kept discovering maggie strands in places we didn't even know existed in the room!
Now whenever we make Maggie and Boug's is around.. we cant stop cracking up at that whole episode. =)
Since all we should concentrate on,is remember the good times and roll with them..i have decided to make "Smile and the World smiles with you" an ongoing segment of the most most,fun and happy memories of my life--of the top of my head! This was the first random thing that hit me when i decided to write about things that make me smile when i look back at them..

Watch this space for more happy memories..as and when they pop up. Meanwhile,do yourself a favor and try to gather only your happy thoughts and pull them as close to yourself as you can,just like i did!
Write them anywhere you want and when you're down in the dumps..you'll know exactly what to turn to.
'Till we meet again.. Spread some Smiles!!!! * =) ting =) *
