This was grandpa's 4 month young bundle of joy 3 years ago in Jul 2006... But since then, this bundle of joy has morphed into a mischief champ that grandpa dreads going anywhere near to. Now more so, after Nishka accidentally bumped her head into him while bouncing on his bed and gave him a bloody lower lip 2 months ago, that took a while to heal.
