Rapunzel Dreams

Anush desires to grow her hair so long that it touches the ground. Her paati ( my mom) has promised to carry it like train for her. If you have seen my hair, you will know it is completely their idea.

Anush saw this at a supermarket and exclaimed" Amma this will make my hair grow very long !!"
I said "No baby it is a shampoo. You wash it off. "
She reasoned " No Amma, it will. See this girl. Her long hair. " And pointed to the graphic on it

What a sucker they make of us- these marketeers. And they catch us really young, don't they?
