No return/refund, only exchange

Aish (in her best "Excuse me, this isn't what I ordered" tone) - Who is this??? Where's the baby sister???

My sister - Well, you don't have a baby sister, Aishu. You have a baby brother.

Aish - But I didn't want a baby brother! I wanted a baby sister!!

Sis - But you have a baby brother. We can't just leave him here in the hospital and go home, can we?

Aish - Yes, let's leave him here in the hospital and go home.

Sis (horrified but staying calm) - Erm... But think of what would happen if we just leave him here?

Aish - Hmmm... Someone else can take him home.

Sis - Look, he's crying. Shall we take him home? Please?

Aish - Hmm... okay fine, we can take him home for now. But later, we will exchange him for Mausi's baby girl.

***

I will now leave the bewdas to digest the news while I go and write another post with the dramatic details.

Whoa, Congratulations, Sayesha mausi :)

And the last bit that Baby Aish said.. is that kids being kids or is that also something we need to digest? ;)

Waiting for the dramatic details!

Whoa! Congratulations! Glad that you had a baby girl. They're so much fun, especially to a Mom like you!
And I'll join the chorus, asking for pics.

Alice said...

And.. some day in the future, Baby Aish and her bro are going to read this post and
a) Go into peals of laughter over what she said
b) Get into some major squabbles over how she decided to leave him in the hospital.

Going by my experience with brothers, it's going to be the latter. :D

Sudipta Chatterjee said...
