I put to use the things that I learn. That's the whole point of learning right? But my parents find it funny! Aren't bones a part of a person?
Here is what happened -
appA was trying to make me sleep by narrating a story while lying down in bed next to my crib. As usual appA slept promptly lulled by his own story while I was wide awake. appA rolled over into my "princess" crib bed.
pAdukA (crying loudly) - no bones, no bones
appA (waking up) - enna Acchu (what happened?)
pAdukA - appA bones, appa bones (continues to cry)
appA - purilai dee (I don't understand)
pAdukA - bones potta appa nee (you put your bones)
appA - huh? swapnam-a? (did you dream?)
pAdukA - ila.. nee bones potta. nee poda kudAdhu (you put your bones. you should not put them here) nee ennoda princess bed la onnoda bones potta. podAdhey. ennoda bones mattumdhaan (you put your bones on my princess bed. It is only for my bones)
appA - hahaha(laughed for quite some time)... (my daughter has x-ray vision :) poda mAtten nee thoongu (I won't put my bones, please sleep)
Lesson learnt - Speaking as a matter of fact does not help!

ananda... bones? really? where did she find bones in you? arent all those bones covered by enough flesh ;-)
If you weren't such lazy bones to doze off like that, this would not be a bone of contention. Paaduka wouldn't have a bone to pick. I like it that she made no bones about it.
