A visit from the Godfather



Daddy, who are we going to see today?
Well, my godparents are coming to visit and we're going to go to dinner with them.
What are their names?
Their names are Uncle Melhi and Aunt Bahktu.
*snicker*
What's so funny?
*laughing* Bahktu is a silly name.
It's not a silly name. It's just a different kind of name than you are used to hearing. And it's not very polite to laugh at someone's name. You wouldn't like it if someone laughed at your name, would you?
No, Daddy.
Now, what are their names?
Uncle Melhi and Aunt *snickering* Bahktu.
Kaylee …
Don't worry Daddy. I won't laugh at her name when she is here. But I will laugh when it's just you and me because it's still kind of funny.

And, just for the record, she didn't laugh. Not once.

I love that girl. I am curious ... why isn't Mehli a silly name, too?
