So Mom told me of all the things she's taught baby Aish to say. I was eager to test her. So when my sister called, I asked her to pass the phone to Aish.
Sis - No no... She will just hang up on you.
My thought bubble - What the...?!
My speech bubble - But I want to talk to her! I want to test what Mom taught her.
Sis - Okay, I'll put the speaker phone on.
Me - Hello, Aish! AAAA-CHHOOO!
Aish - *silence*
Me - Aish, AAAA-CHHOOO! AAAA-CHHOOO!
Aish - *silence*
Me - Sis, why isn't she saying what she's supposed to say?
Sis (to Aish) - Aish, Mausi is sneezing!
Me - AAAA-CHHOOO! AAAA-CHHOOO!
Aish - Blechyu!
Me - OH. MY. GOD. I can't believe this! Did she really say "Bless you?"?? Even we don't say "Bless you" when someone sneezes!
Mom (beaming proudly) - Of course! I taught her to say that whenever someone sneezes.
Me - But she's not even 2! And she said "Bless you!"
Sis - Yeah, she repeats whatever you teach her.
Me - This is unbelievable. I have to hear it again. Aish, AAAA-CHHOOO!
Aish - *silence*
Me - Aish, AAAA-CHHOOO! AAAA-CHHOOO! AAAA-CHHOOO!
Aish - *silence*
Me - Sis, tell her I'm sneezing!
Sis - Aish, Mausi is sneezing! What do you say when Mausi sneezes?
Me - AAAA-CHHOOO! AAAA-CHHOOO! AAAA-CHHOOO! AAAA-CHHOOO! AAAA-CHHOOO!
Aish - Babblebabblebabblebabble!!!
Me - Huh? What was that??
Sis - No idea...
Aish's thought bubble - I said "Go see a doctor, you crazy woman!"

I love these Baby Aish posts..but then who doesn't :D

Kids say the damnest things...Kids thought bubble involves quite a few intelligent things...And this one was one of them !!! Haha...The tiny tapori !!!!
my lil niece (3 years old) refused to give me a kiss. She refused because I am a man and a girl is not supposed to kiss a guy... LOL...
Kids are too much...
Aah the nightmare of being a smart kid. Once they learn something, they have to perform that again and again for the entire ghar khe khaandhaan.
That too, the audacity of these mausis :O International call mein torture...
All I can say is...awwwwwwwwwwww!!!
The things kids have to endure... Just so that the parents can show off to others :D

That was nice! But why should someone bless when the other person is sneezing? I don't get it. Today I was at the Music world store and browsing peacefully through the English section when the elderly person next to me suddenly went into a fit of sneezing. How can I bless him when I felt like...okay..he was an elderly person ...you get it right?
So is there some history behind this crazy practice or is it really crazy?
And yeah... it has been a long time. Nice to be back. Happy New year!
hahaa....how fun to teach kids :-).
Teaching bless u is sooo sweet! A 2yr old saying that, I wouldn't know how to react! haha. she is adorable.

#Crime Master,
I know! :D
#Tejal,
Gosh itna lamba thought bubble! :P
#Ab,
Well, I think no matter how harmless the intent was, a sentence that is phrased "Doesn't he/she have a mother?" is offensive and inappropriate. Anyway, post gaya, baat gayi. :)
#Chanakya,
Eeesh! I don't want to watch movies all day yaar, itna time kiske paas hai. I want some variety - some Saregamapa, some Boogie Woogie, etc. :)

#Ankur,
Ohh 2-year-olds are awesome are repeating! I have a friend whose son is 2 and he's so fun to be around!! Your daughter must be an entertainer too! :D :D :D
#Solitaire,
Oh I am totally sure! :P
i know the situation isn't what I am going to interpret now, but still...
did anyone, besides me, think of the child being treated like a parrot...
you know how people train parrots to talk right?
hey, maybe its me, but I can't help think of the poor kid as a parrot here.
Still funny though
