Speaking of my reading...

Prasad and I had the following conversation after we got back from Milind's the night we gave the kids their birthday presents:

P: What is all this rubbish? [Skimming through the hard copy of the list in my previous post]

V: These are the books we just gave Simmy. [Beaming brightly (If I were a puppy, my tail would've been wagging)]

P: She is going to read these books?! [His big round eyes almost popping out of his big round head]

V: Chill, Sharula gave me this list. And besides, their reviews are very funny. I read them before I wrapped them.

P: [Looking suspiciously at me] I have never seen Simmy laugh while reading. In fact, I don't think she ever laughs when she reads.

V: I can't help it if she doesn't have a good sense of humour.

P: I don't understand your sense of humour.

*End of conversation*

Sharula assured me, this afternoon, that Simmy laughs occassionally when she reads.
