Adu

I bought this T-shirt around 5 years back. When I had picked it, out of several colorful ones, my friend disliked it and suggested not to go for it. But I insisted saying "I really like it and I will wear it for my sake". Never had I imagined at that moment I will have a daughter and she will insist me to wear the same T-shirt again and again!!!

It happened very recently after I returned home from office. As usual I changed my dress, got fresh and was ready for dinner. Chinni had already spent around 30 mins playing with me before I could get fresh. The dinner was served and I had just had one bite of chapati......Chinni came to me complaining of something which I didnt understand. I could not ignore her, since she compelled me to look into whatever she wants. She was pointing to something "adu, adu, adu". Not able to tolerate her, just kept my plate on table and followed her. She took me to bedroom and pointed at my black T-shirt with orange and white stripes.

I was literally amazed. I was made to remove the one I was wearing and put on the Tee. Uffff, kuch hazam nahi hua. I don't how that Tee attracted her. After I had put on, I loved the smile she had on her face and she gave a tight hug saying "pappa" atleast 4 times.

And this has been repeating since then. Now, I need to hide my Tee if I don't want to wear it that day.

......I sang and she cried

Chinni is badly hit by cold since a couple of days. She is struggling so much to sleep.

As she is used to listening to songs while sleeping, this has gone to a new height now. She wants her ammi to sing A B C D, Barney, Pingu (penguin song) and other ones. Yesterday night, around 2 am, she woke up to her choking nose and started asking A B C D. I thought let me sing it for her .......I had not even finished C she started crying :(

I stopped immediately, N continued and she slept as if she had not woken up :)
