The prize is yours Mr Handsome

After sometime we both finished our drawing but didn't show it to each other yet.

Rachel: Let's make mumma the judge. And the winner will get a prize.

She suggested and I nodded at her.

Lucas: I don't have any problem.

Rachel: Mumma...can you please come here.

Bella: What is it baby? Is it paining somewhere?

She asked worriedly moving closer to us. Rachel shook her head negatively.

Rachel: We made drawings and we want you to tell us which one is best.

Bella: Oh ...okay.

First Rachel showed her drawing giggling cutely. She is quite excited and confident. She had drawn a scenery with mountains and river and trees all over. Bella smiled and praised her.

Bella: Wow! So good. You did a good job baby.

Rachel: Really! So will I win?

Bella: Let me first see the other team's drawing.

Bella forwarded her hands towards me and I show them my sketch of a rose. Surprised right? A mafia can draw. I mean anyone can, but this profession has many stereotypes attached, which are still left to overcome. Anyway I learnt it from my mother. She is even better than me.

Bella: Wow!

Lucas: How is it?

Bella: You know how to paint.

Lucas: It's just a hobby of mine.

Rachel: Wow Mr. Handsome....your painting is so good....like my mumma.

Lucas: Do you know painting too?

I exclaimed shockingly. She is talented.

Bella: Yes I've interest in paintings. It is, kind of a hobby for me too.

Lucas: I guess we share this common interest then.

Bella: It seems like it.

Rachel:Then I'm not the winner. Here... the prize is yours Mr. Handsome.

She gave a chocolate and pouted. Who can take the chocolate away from this cutie? I was going to give it back to her but Bella beat me at it.

Bella: Don't you want a prize baby?

Rachel: Will I get one too?

Her eyes twinkled at the question. Children get happy so easily. Bella nodded and smiled sweetly at her.

Rachel: But I didn't win.

She again hunch her shoulders but Bella grabbed her little hands and said.

Bella: It's the participation prize baby.

Rachel: Does everyone who participated gets a prize?

Bella: Baby winning and losing are just parts of our life. The main thing is to participate. Everyone who took part in something, has to give their best and try to win. But even if you lose, you have already tried your best to win. So the results does not matter. We should always give our best to succeed but even if we lose, we will surely get the prize someday. Always remember this, okay?

Rachel: Okay mumma.

Bella smiled when Rachel again get into her usual self and gave her the chocolate. She easily explained her the importance of participation with such simplicity and also appreciated her efforts. She is a really good mother to her child.

Lucas: Then enjoy your prize. Here...take it.

I gave my chocolate to Bella and got a questioning look.

Lucas: I'm currently on a diet. You can eat it.

Bella: Thanks.
