Kavya : Innocence and Curiosity leads to comedy

Kavya had known but never really understood that she was going to have a baby brother. She basically did not understand the differences between a boy and a girl, although she could correctly identify who was a boy and who was a girl.

On January 14th, we came home with Ishaan. That day was the first time Kavya was seeing her little brother since we could not take her to the hospital due to cough and cold. She was very excited. She was eager to play with him and hold him in her lap.

Sometime later, we had to change Ishaan's diaper. So, we asked Kavya to get a new diaper and she went running to get a diaper. Gaurav removed the soiled diaper and put the new diaper under Ishaan while Kavya was carefully observing what daddy was doing. After a while, she got curious and pointed at Ishaan's penis and asked "Aa birdie jevu shu che?" (What is that birdie-like thing"?). We all burst out in laugher at her innocence and curiosity and most of all how she expressed her curiousity :)
