A real problem

"Baba, can you look for my teddy bear?", Sanjana asked.

I had recently cleaned up her room. I said "Sanjana, why can't you find it yourself?"

She answered, somewhat angrily...

"I can't, Baba. There is no mess in my room to search."

Bookworm

These days I make the kids read some books. Sometimes I ask them questions about the story to make sure that they really understand what they read.

So once I asked Sanjana, "Did you read the book? Are you sure?"

She wailed a bit...

"How can I be sure, Baba? You never quizzed me."
