Your Pedicure & Manicure!
Posted in Dad on 01/08/2009 06:33 am by JeyHi Kavya,
You make sure that keeping your nails trimmed is challenging for Dad. Because your mom gives you a sipper of milk both in the morning and in the evening, your nails tend to grow fast. And you promptly put it to use scratching me. As soon as it becomes painful for me, I rush to get your nails trimmed. Your mom never gets into this dangerous pursuit and hence I have been doing this since you were born. I try to distract you by giving you a chocolate or by giving you a toothbrush or toothpaste to hold and nibble. But you make it more and more difficult with time as your attention span is getting shorter by the day.
Anyway, today I tried to cut your finger nails and inadvertently cut a little bit of your skin. This is also because the infant nail cutter went missing and I used an adult nailcutter which wasn’t as fine as the infant one. There was quite a bit of blood. You cried for 2 minutes and then came back to normal. Your mom then took you to Prithika’s house so that it can be a diversion. I am so Sorry Kavya for cutting your skin. I will be more careful next time, I promise.
Dad
