a month too long

Sorry dear readers .. a busy dad and a busy mom makes blogging a tough job. Add to that the fact that the laptop keyboard behaves erratically and writing a simple blog post becomes a chore as well.

So whats been happening in my life. We are already in the month of december and this being a month of birthdays and anniversaries, it is slightly overwhelming. So let me first fill you in on my progress.

1. I can walk. Thats not the same thing as I walk all the time. The body is able, but the mind is unwilling.

2. I talk gibberish all the time.

3. I read books - all of them - once in the morning and once in the evening. Its a ritual.

4. I am polite. I say thank you to mom after every meal. Honest.

5. I am officially dad's taster. I have to eat from his plate. Its a ritual.

6. I love playing music. Especially the one in my walker. Dad has to dance to that tune. Its a requirement and its a ritual.

7. I love eating out. It was fun to eat on Mom's birthday at my favorite Italian restaurant. I look forward to Dad's birthday soon.

8. I have made a wonderful teddy bear for Kalpesh Kaka. He won the quiz afterall.

9. I miss my great grandma - she has not been well. But her health keeps improving as the day of my India trip draws closer.

10. I am so going to be overwhelmed by the whole india trip. But it would be fun to meet everyone again. And of course, some of them for the first time too.

11. I am so looking forward to meeting Anju masi and Saanvi in January too.

12. Grandpa is tensed about our visit. He wants to ensure that I have the most comfortable time there. But he is making life miserable for himself right now worrying about it.

Okay... thats just a quick summary. I will tell you more over subsequent posts.Watch the space.
