Fun Talk
Baby Name: Ashwini Parent's Name: Lata Sundararajan
My 1 and 1/2
Work is Worship
Baby Name: Vishal Parent's Name: Rani Gupta
Although my sister-in-law has married into a very rich family, her husband believes in standing on his own two feet. He is a bank officer with a moderate income. Her father-in-law owns a Mercedes, whereas her husband drives a fiat. One day, she jokingly told her 5 year old son, “What a lovely, big car your grandpa has. Why don’t you ask him to give it to us.” Vishal promptly replied, “Work hard and earn your own money. Do not take the easy way out.”
Jigsaw Puzzle
Baby Name: Parent's Name: Shayan
My son doesn't like going for haircut, so when I forcibly got him a
haircut very sadly he said "you have broken my heart, mamma!" and immediately added-when he realised I was sad too-"but don't worry it has turned into a jigsaw puzzle and will join together".
A Prayer for the Hungry
Baby Name: Parent's Name: Cassandra
My sister-in-law was teaching her 2 year old son to recite ‘The Prayer to the Lord.’ He started with,
“My father, who art in heaven
Hallowed be thy name
Thy kingdom come
Thy will be done
On earth as it is in heaven
(so far, so good)
Give us this day, our daily biscuit (oops)
So she asked him to repeat the last line. He said, ‘Give us this day our daily bread-stick’
(oops, again!)
It was only after she had fed him, that he managed to get it right!
Honesty Pays (Duty i.e.)
Baby Name: Parent's Name: Shahila Begum
I was returning from the States last year, and had purchased a few too many electronic goods. I had managed to keep most of them concealed, as I had decided to declare just a few. What I did not count on was my innocent 7 year old. As my bags were being opened, he excitedly pointed to one saying, “Look underneath is my new ice-cream maker. And you know, I even have a popcorn machine.”
