January 2018, at a shop:

Agu: Can I buy this ice cream truck??
We: Not now, we will get it for your birthday

September 2018

We: Agu!!! Guess what, we are going to get your birthday gift early this time, you can choose whichever toy you want
Agu: WOW!! A surprise gift for me???!!!

*walks out of the store with the same ice cream truck we had promised him 9 months back* 🤷🏻‍♀️

Lesson learnt: Never underestimate your kid’s memory, now we are a bit worried about all the things we have promised at different toy shops at different points of time 😬😬
