Bed time stories/conversations. Part 2.

Dad: Ok, which story.

MishMash: Mmmm Princess story, papa.

Dad: OK. Once upon a time there lived a princess..

Mish Mash: No papa. I want Witch story.

Dad: OK. There once lived a witch..

MishMash: Bad Witch, papa.

Dad: OK. There once lived a bad witch. One fine morning, she caught a boy walking and said- abracadabra, turn the boy into a sheep. She wanted to keep the sheep in her cage..

MishMash: No Papa. She says- Abla-ca-dabla- turn the boy into a chocolate.

Dad: then

MishMash: the boy turns into a chocolate. The Witch eats him up. *Bursts into a giggle*. THEEEE END.

Dad: Hmmmm

-------------------------------------------------------------------------

photoMishMash: Nobody loves me. *Sulking  at the other end of the bed*

KG: Why do you say that (head buried behind a book. A desperate attempt to escape the torture of narrating the 6th story that

night.

MishMash: Nobody is telling me a story.

KG: But papa just finished telling you 5 stories. You should go to bed.

MishMash: *almost ready to cry*

KG: Ok last one?

MishMash: OK.

KG: Once upon a there  lived a Good Barbie. She went to school every day. (a desperate attempt to make school sound fun to her)

Mishmash: No ma. No school story. I want Bad Barbie story.

KG: Good Night.

MishMash: Amaake Keo Laab korena (nobody loves me) *breaks into sob*

(papa hugs her, tells her ‘cocodile’ story. 

All the three live happily ever after.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

 

MishMash: Ma, I want a ‘real baby’. (Holds her blue baby boy doll in hand)

KG: *completely taken by surprise* – what's a ‘Real baby’, Meeshu?

MishMash: Real baby, ma. We’ll change nappies.

KG: Hmmmm. Papa was thinking of a lovely pup or may be a kitten, which one would you like more?

MishMash: Real baby, ma.

Love the way you narrate it!!!! But 6 stories in a night...christ sake....

I see great potential in Meeshu. She could be an actress (I visualised her frowning and 'ready to cry')...She could be a great writer (Surely she has the imagination of her mother)...She could also be the catalyst to your family planning (where else would the real baby come from?)
@debanjana: i get it babe. u are bang on!

@Starryeyed nut: thanks darlingey! yes yes, 6 is the minimum number. these day both raj and i have ourf aces covered with a book. :D We are hoping she will try to imitate us and ick her own, but no such luck, yet.

Scribler: catalyst, did u say? Since she has a vivid imagination, her real baby should ideally be one too- ie imaginary. Else, i'll point her to all her mashis, who are postpoing procreation and tell her that, she'd be able to get a real baby from them perhaps?

some where the characters in all of meeshu's desired bed-time stories, remind me of your classic statement:: the sooner you understand that your kid likes Tom more than Jerry, the better for you.........when will my m start hating jerry i wonder.........
