Chiku says - @4 years and 5 months

And everytime she opens her mouth, I think she is gonna say something thats gonna make me really upset or put me in a split.
But on the other hand, for Meme, Chiku talking is like music to her ears. There is such a deafening silence when Chiku is fast asleep.

At 4 years and 5 months, she can really talk non-stop, so much that even if I want to ignore her blabbering and go on with my work, I just can't. And eventually I burst out with a ssssssssssshhhhhhhhhhhhh. To Mummu, sorry baby, you really can test peoples patience including your mums, well correction, especially your mums.
If I reiterate to meme, I only get a standard response, its in the blood. Ya right!!!

The last few days have been a roll of some of the most funny things that chiku has said.
Yesterday, after Sunny did his potty, and his father gave him a wash, the father unknowingly picked the towel closest to the bathroom door and wrapped the boy in it and brought him to the hall, where our darling chiku was happily watching TV. After giving a look to the father and brother she went back to watching her favorite channel CBeebies and the father and son walked away to the bedroom. AFter a fraction of second, she runs to her dad and says " Why you using my towel?". Daddy "Is this your towel chiku? I am so sorry I didn't know. And I couldn't find baba's towel so used yours. Its ok na baby, baba is a small baby na? " to which she promptly replies "what you can't see? Baba's towel is right here on this door that much u can't see." Well, though the father did a double take, he couldn't help but burst out into laughter.

Last night, after clearing the vegetable stock and cleaning the kitchen platform at meme's place, I just didn't have the strength to do anything else. Just then, chiku decides to check on me, she asked "mumma are you gonna wash utensils?" And I replied "No baby, mumma is not doing bartan, mumma is very tired. I will just clear off few things and then we can leave for home" And I assumed chiku would be so happy to hear that, cos by the time I finish off doing bartan its late in the night. Guess what she says "Of all the things you could atleast wash the bartan for amma, no?"
My word. I couldn't believe my ears, these are the dialogues I give to Su when he hasn't met my expectations of household chores are concerned. Well nothing else could be done other than laugh.

She NOT only talks but understands as well. I got some stuff for Anne(well her own stuff). Looking at the sling, Chiku asked "mumma why you giving this?" So I said "This is Annette mummy's na, so we have to give it back" pat comes" then how will we carry Baba"
I said "its ok, baba is a lil bigger we can carry him in our hands or baba can walk".
Chiku " annette mummy has got new baby" to which I replied "No. Not yet."
and She thoughtfully responds "oh baby is still in Annette mummy's tummy."
and I just had to say a yes and distract her.

Chiku and baba share a great bond. And its absolutely amazing (touchwood) to see them. She keeps talking to him like a really big sister, sometimes when I hear her I feel I m listening to myself. When Sunny is notorious and not in a listening mood she would go on with "babaaaaaaaa eeh ehh ehh" a slow grunting sound to show authority and seriousness. And its totally different thing that baba doesn't care at all. Sometimes she says " Baba, don't do like this, you will get hurt na" and sometimes " Baba don't pull my hair, I am your big sister na I am didi na" and sometimes "adi veno" (you want beatings, with her small palms in action).

Amidst all this, her favorite thing to do so is sing bollywood songs, and these days are favorites are "dhunki dhunki lage" and "why this kolaveri di?" Beautiful thing is she knows to modulate her voice as per the song.

I must tell you chiku, though I am irritated at times, but everything that you say is really adorable.
