कैद में है बुलबुल!!!

This was the title that came to my mind, after spending nearly 24 hours with Piku after nearly 1 month. Yes, my family is back from Lucknow trip. We traveled back from Lucknow to Indore on Sunday.

So, it started Monday morning. Around 6 AM, I heard Piku chanting alternately "Papa..." and then "Mummy....". Sluggishly I responded "what happened beta?". He pointed towards the door saying "ba". Since I couldn't decipher the code "ba", I (nervously) woke up wifey for help. She told me that this is one of latest additions to Piku's vocabulary and it translates to बाहर.

Spoilt (for good) by the healthy lifestyle of his grandparents; Piku had entirely forgotten my preachings ( i.e. get up only when it is absolutely necessary) and entered into habit of having a walk early morning. I was taken aback; it took me nearly 2 years to knock this habit out of his mother, and now him!!!

Anyhow, I managed to keep him (hence myself) in bed for next 2 hours. Later, when Piku saw me putting on shoes  when I was getting ready for office, he brought his shoes also, tugged me & said "ba". Me & Ankita had to try hard to ensure that he stayed indoor.

Later, after returning from the office in evening; before I could enter the door, Piku came hurtling towards me. I spread my arms affectionately to hug him, but he ran right past me saying "ba ba ba"....
That was when I thought "कैद में है बुलबुल"!

Nice one again, these anecdotes are now arranging themselves as pieces of a jigsaw puzzle, very connected still very independently complete. The interest is growing like anything due to the incidences themselves and wonderful narration. The most wonderful thing is that each of these anecdotes is a complete and detailed account of the incidence but with sufficient brevity, "briefly detailed", as would like to summarize with this single oxymoron :D, "tersely elaborated" !!!
