Introduction
Well, I love to spend my time with young kids as they are adorable(very cute) and do little pranks which give me immense happiness. Today, I am going to talk about a kid with whom I spent almost 4-5 hours.
Actually, he is my neighbour’ kid Shubam. He is five years old and very cute. Last month, my neighbour came my home and requested to spend some time with Shubam because he had to go to the market for some shopping and his wife was on work. As he is our good neighbor and trusts on me, so he left the home immediately and I went his home.

Introduction
Children being innocent and full of life are admired by all. I have a special fondness for the company of children. So whenever I get the opportunity of being with them, I consider it to be a precious time for me.
Here I am going to talk about a time when I got this opportunity. Two years back, my cousin who lives in Canada, came to India. She has a daughter named Jessica, who was 8 years old at that time. We went to meet them in Patiala.
When all the elder members were busy exchanging the courtesies, I found Jessica to be feeling home sick as she had come to India for the first time and another reason was that she had no one of her age to play with her. I picked up the conversation with her and she too started enjoying my company. She showed me all her toys one by one.
It was really interesting to talk to her. She was so well mannered and sophisticated that I was surprised how a small kid can talk in such a sensible manner. When I asked her about the difference between India and Canada, she said innocently that in India people didn’t need to go to the zoo in order to look at the animals as the cows, dogs and cats are a common sight on the roads.
All this made me burst out laughing. Part from this, she showed me some of her drawings which filled me with a great sense of admiration for her. She had made the sketches of all her family members as well as some other objects. Another thing which I enjoyed about her was the mimicry of her parents.

The way she changed her voice modulation, tone as well as the pitch while imitating her parents was something which amazed me all the more. I forgot the sense of time in the company of this little girl. I must say that spending some time in the company of children brings the much needed relief to a person.
