God! can a day have 30 hours instead????




I've experienced a whole gamut of emotions(the past year, owing to Murali's staying away on work) from one of being all confident, powerful and a supermom, taking charge of two kids all alone, to one of sheer frustration, anger and irritability. The kids have kept me busy, busy and busy what with me trying to balnce Ananya's and Advaya's needs.


I've made sure Ananya got to have her share of fun, going to school regularly, fun in the playground, and then, being part of all the celebration we have here. She and a few other kids danced to the number 'zoobi doobi' , as a part of the Diwali celebration in the apartment complex.


The lil'er lil one, Advaya is doing well too. She is a confident walker now, though with a coupla tumbles. Her endeavour at physical activity is having me exhausted. I think she's a mountaineer in the making and is incessantly honing her skills. she likes to climb heights and her insatiable curiosity is only making her explore newer heights to climb everyday. But alas! there are only a limited options at home......but never mind! we practice over and over again, with the same options......Practice makes a man(well.....a determined toddler too) perfect!!


She's elated speaking the words she's learnt.....amma, ammamma, thatha, hi, bye, dadda, akkkkka, apple, susssu, poooootty,nnnoooooo, seeee, take, woooooow, and we are adding everyday!!!! She's already got a huuuuuuge circle of friends(bigger kids and adults!!!!) and is endearing everyone with her beauuuuuuutiful smiles. None can escape her charm.......


The two girlies are having a wonderful time together, doing naughty things, each one following the other, each one laughing at the other's silly things, each one taking cues from the other, to start a new fun thing......it's wonderful........................... at the end of a long day, exhausting, but fulfilling to see them happy.
