Step(up)Mother

Kids... they have the weirdest imaginations and explanations for everything and anything they hear around

My son's best friend lives with her dad and step mom. I knew about it after meeting them at a B'day party but I wasn't aware whether Aayush knew it or not. And I never specially mentioned it to him too.

so yesterday evening, after he was back from school, he tells me: "Do you know Heather is Gabby's step mom?"
I said "Really? I didn't know know that. But, do you know what is step mom?"

And his response was: "Yes, one who steps up to be your mom !!"

Now isn't that some unusual definition :-)

@Shilpa: Right Shilpa, and I never looked at this way.

@weourlife: Right, I agree.

@ BK Chowla: Yes I can definitely say that. He observes the people, what they say, how they react, everything a lot.

@Raam Pyari: Very true indeed !!
