A short course in family relations ..

Mujnu has arrived to the delight of everyone ... Dejanari is exhausted but fine ... Goliath is peering into mini Goliath's eyes ... The entire family is around ... a vast array of aunts and uncles ... I suppose it is a blessing that the Asian language distinguishes the types of aunts, uncles & grandparents .. you have Mamu which is your mums brother; Chala, your mums sister; Dada, your dads dad; Nani, your mums mum etc ... So I am now a Poopee, the sister of Mujnu's dad ... which makes Cream a Poopa, the husband of the sister of Mujnu's dad. All very easy ... I'm sure Mujnu will pick this up very quickly!
