Bye Bye 2009 , Here I come 2010

Happy new year.
1. Send wishes to all the family members and friends - Check.
2. Cutty pie aka Sanja is in high spirits as everyone is wishing her Happy Day.
3. A quick glance back at 2009

Sanja (aka Sanjana) has made tremendous strides in her school of mischief, music and good manners. Her affinity to animals both alive and stuffed is something we are happy and worried about (what with 5 dogs following you everytime on the roads). She is crazy about Mickey , Minnie, Dora and her favourite songs apart from Carnatic geetham are Misca mosca and Hot Dog ( Disney club house).

Cudos to Rahul and Prithvi as the have won the honour of being called out by Sanju. Yes she says Ragool(Rahul) and Thithvi (Prithvi). She is smitten by Tara and says Papa Papa. As of today she tells Anjannnnnaaaaa (for Sanjana).



This year has been gr8 with Sanju learning to sing play dance read and what not. Iam back to singing nursery rhymes and starting out again from pre school.



Updates on us: - Varsha is still lazy to get up early in the morning but somehow manages to cook food , clean home and get herself to office by 10:30AM.

Srini is busy with on going talks (that never end) for their projects with Marvel comics and a movie. He is also busy helping Varsha in household work.



Appa and Amma are having the best time with Sanja (as her paternal parents are off to US). Appa still glued to matches and Amma with her cooking and stitching for her grand daughter and daughter .

4. Looking forward
  Seeking blessing from God and Goddess and family elders to pass on the new year with new vigour and achieve a lot many things (including losing out temper , weight) etc...

HAPPY NEW YEAR 2010

The baby gal turns mother

-
Sanja turns into mother hen !! Yesterday night we (S, mil, fil , sil , sanja , kicha ( sil's almost 2 month old son)) were having some discussion in the hall. S went to get the fruits for the night-banana. Sanja doesn't eat them, she is in borderline of whether to taste it or not and mostly gives up the banana. So yesterday she took mine, peeled the skin and was feeding me :P. She was asking me to take bites like I tell her to eat food. The other baby didn't want to be left out. He found that his akka was having something interesting and was rearing to get it to his mouth. Watching the 2 kids , we were laughing at the attics. Sanja then reminded me again - Amma aah( a-um) vangiko ma.. sappidhu ma. It sent us into another peals of laughter. Finally she got fed up with my slow eating and herself made pieces out of it and fed them into my mouth. Blessed me !!! I was all smiles. How much of a mother she is to me? She then proceeded to put the skin in the dustbin and wa

Pathiyam samayal

Food specially prepared for a new mother . If you are a Brahman and a Tambram at it, you would have heard these words in a household that has just been blessed with a new -born baby. The food items prepared under this category is mainly meant for the new mother, to help her out in recovering from the internal wounds that she would have after the delivery. The main ingredients used for flavouring are pepper, pepper and some more pepper, ladles of ghee, salt. It is the post-natal care for both the new mother and the baby, making sure they don't suffer from indigestion. Nowadays , however, either due to the lack of support system( elderly people or parents) many of us just about take the normal food we have during normal times. But you can actually feel the difference the specially prepared food has compared to the normal diet we follow.   The options one has for this particular food preparation might be a tad bit limited, but with new experiments you can prepare a variety of d

My thoughtful daughter

-
Sanja had been to a wedding yesterday with her maternal grandparents. She had a great time playing my father's friend 's grandkids.  She behaved like a very good girl and ate without much fuss. The curds were served in Matkas (small earthern cups). Sanja at once declared that she will take her cup back home for her mother. She made granny clean it up and took hold of it as priced possession. When everyone asked her why she is taking it with her , her reply  Amma paint panuva, papa amma ku kuduka poren. (Amma will paint it, Iam going to give it to her) . The background , she saw me painting the Diyas for Karthigai deepam this wednesday. She kept asking me Amma , painting pannare ya ma (Amma are you painting). and remembered to get that earthern pot fo me . Ahhh, gal, I learnt from you today, though the gifts can be small, they will be priceless when given with sooooo much of love.  Hugs to you Darling !! PS: Iam gushing with joy and pride that my daughter is so very thou
