Car Wash..

..I have been little busy these days with summer and guests at home so could not  write a lot,but summers brings us lot of sunshine in life and some fun activities which is at time amusing to see...
Car wash nowadays has been used as fund raising for school going kids ..they use the money in school and in return get credits which can be used in college for their enrolment and future development...its a noble act to help and get help in return for which we all look forward...
today at my work watching out of the window I was could see some teenagers standing on the side walk with bikinis and asking for car wash ....for which there was lot of honking on the road,probably guys were doing that....and some cars actually stopped ..may be for car wash....It was fun to see all this!
other day I was goin with my hubby and we stopped at the gas station (no ,not for car wash)I was amazed how dedicated these girls are and how people seem to be so civilised sitting in the cars and getting it cleaned...patiently without any stares...
......
this is very common scene now days...fund raising for school...I have clicked few pictures to show my friends and also how  Michigan is known for its scenic beauty ..where bollywood shoots are specially done in up-north (UP) its jus like ...oil paintings made by God.....














the whole street has white flowers.

Oh Boy!

...Kids sometimes act very funny....this incident happened two weeks back...my hubby was at home that time luckily...My older one came from school ..who is in third grade...he is usually pampered by his dad ..so he probably looks for dad if he needs something...I being  little strict ..he usually tells my husband about his needs...
so kevin said..Dad I need a Bible..the teacher asked for it.
..looking at him I said...why do you need a bible?..I had mentioned during your enrollment our nationality and religion in the forms..
Shrinking his brows...he said...
I have to get that ,most of the kids in my class got it!I asked ..Did Mukund get that too?as he is the only Indian boy with him..
 (kevin)
he said ..yes!I told him to wait for a day I will talk to his teacher over the phone and confirm the reason,but I forgot..so he said its the last day today ..and if I don't get it I am not going to school tomorrow..My husband looked at the clock it was quarter to nine... he told my son to come with him to the store ,the book store closes at nine..as they reached the store he took him to bible section and told him to take one which  the teacher asked for...
Kevin looked around and said this is not what I want ...this is not a" bible" teacher asked..there was a lady standing next to him she laughed looking at my son.
Its big one...has holes and spring in them...the lady laughed louder...
my husband standing next to our boy felt embarrassed ..and told him this is the only Bible in this world OK
then ..looking at him he tried to figure out the description he was giving ...he asked my son ..is it a Binder? they want!!
Yes..he laughed ..ya..I want that! my husband then took him to school supplies and showed him one!
he picked one and came home..
I looked at my son who was laughing ,looking at the binder ..and I thought its good, I forgot to call the teacher as it would be embarrassing for me too!!!
Kids can be so funny ...its like a real life joke...
