Noyonika calls me Deuta – at least that’s what K has been trying to teach her.
Deuta means Dad in Assamese; I’m sure Di-dhi, Te-tah and Thi-thi don’t mean anything in any language, but those are approximations of what Noyonika actually says!
(OK, I admit it - maybe she’s just making noises and not actually calling me!).
Now, I just call her the Devil. She’s become really bratty & mischievous – she points at things & screams at the top of her voice to indicate she wants it (mostly at food!), she switches on the music player and dances to the music (yes – really!) and she beats K & me if she doesn’t get what she wants (I’m scared of her punches!).
So, here are two pics of Deuta & the Devil – thanks to Bodhi for excellent photos, taken during our recent Phoenix trip.
