Ever since my kid's been old enough to blink he's had me in the palm of his hand. There was no one more fragile, delicate, beautiful than he. Even now, although far from being a baby, he's still the most beautiful face I've beheld; in my humble opinion. And because he knows his power over... Continue Reading →
Vacation Diaries- Day 1
We've set off on what promises to be an annual vacation of sorts. We're in Goa with a whole bunch of other people who also are in Goa doing the same thing we are-lazing in a resort which caters to their kids' ideas of fun viz the beach and the pool and also to their... Continue Reading →
Reblogged: Marking Territory
Everywhere I look, I sit the offspring's presence prevails. The jar of Gummybears are usually within hand's reach although with the child-proof caps it's still a bit in our control when we want to hand the bears over.

My Son: The Superhero Decapitator
I'd caught up with a friend for a belated celebration of her birthday at a kiddy place house-cum cafe. She's specifically kept it in a child-friendly place so the moms would be able to take their eyes off their offspring and just kick back and relax. Erm...yeah. Sure. Why not? It wasn't a complete disaster... Continue Reading →
Kids: The Beauty Of The Little People
Witnessed two separate instances of candid and unadulterated (excuse the pun) kiddy behavior yesterday. Enjoy reading about them. I enjoyed experiencing them: Scenario 1: Last evening at the play area MLM and another little friend of his got into a tiff which seemed to be escalating to epic proportions. Well epic differs from people to... Continue Reading →
School Shopping
We're shopping for a new school for MLM. He's going to 1st grade in 2015 and we're a bit worried. Correction- Red is a bit worried. Am anxious. Anxious because when I was going to school at his age and even at an age older to what he is now, there was usually one or... Continue Reading →
