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!
The Shopaholic’s Son
Baby Name: Sameer Parent's Name: Vanee Jaising
My friend from Delhi loves shopping. Especially so when she arrives in Mumbai. Last year, when she had come down, she invited me to lunch. She asked me to come at 1:30 p.m. as she had an appointment with the dentist at 12:30 p.m. When I arrived, he son, Sameer, greeted me at the door saying, “Mama’s not at home.” Although I knew she was at the dentist, I tried to pick up a conversation with this little 4 year old. So I asked him, “Where has your mummy gone?” “Shopping!”, he answered.
Chappal Pahano Nahin!
Baby Name: Parent's Name: Usha Pavan
When we were in the US, my two year old son used to play with a Hindi speaking neighbour. We are Telugu people and he picked up a few hindi words like Chappal pahano, ghumne chale, thak gaye ho??, etc etc. from his hindi speaking aunty. Once he wanted to say remove the chappals to her and didn't know what to say. So, he finally told Chappal pahano nahin!!!
One day my three year old daughter was telling me the names of her friends in her school. She told me that one of her friends name was Saurab because he was rubbing all the time in a notebook.
