Earliest Childhood Memory

Old people say that childhood is the best part of life. There is no doubt that child hood is the golden period in man's life. There is nothing to worry about. No cares and no troubles. Parents are present to serve us and love us. Take a look back at childhood and remember all its happy days -- the jolly games, the long rambles in the country, the fun I had at school, the kind father and mother and the little sisters and brothers, the old home, the sweets and cakes they used to eat, the children's parties, the jokes used to play, and the present I got when was kid, I had not to work hard to get something to eat; My mother gave all I wanted.

I used to hear stories as I am on bed at night. Everyday my mother tells a new story, one day she said all the stories are ended now; you have to sleep without listing any story and make that habit. I was only 7 years old and don’t know what she said. I cried, shouted “ muje kahani suni haaaaaaai” haha

Then my papa said: “aj me sunnata hun story ap ko”. That story was on me “ek choti si gandi se bachi thi jo roz khani sunti thi magar use kch b smj hi nahi ata tha” . Are you talking about me Baba? I asked.
Nahi tum to achi bachi ho tum khudi so jati ho, me to ek gandi bachi ki bat kar raha hun. My father replied. I said oh ok.

Well in the story the girl was me and my papa was keep repeating the same line “ek gandi bachi thi jo zor khani sunti thi magar use smj kch b nahi ata” haha. It was true because he was repeating the same line and I did not notice that. Form that time I stop listing any bedtime story :P
