Holi
Sanja was enthu to celebrate Holi after she had listened to our tales of Holi celebration in the past. The our includes me and my mom. Every holi we remember the fun we had when we lived in Blore and the all the families in the compound celebrated holi with great enthu. It would take several baths to rinse of the colors. Staying with neighbours who were Rajasthani made us celebrate holi in its true sense. At end of day Mom was orange in color and it wouldnt leave her for a few days ;).
So hearing these stories , Sanja was asking us if we can also do this colour splashing at home and we indulged her with little bit of pink, blue, orange and purple.Granny has stored the color packets safely. Hence it helped. Being a working day , we kept the celebration to just 15 minutes. But those 15 min were the best having a colorful kid running across rooms and painting colour on her mom, dad, grandpa and granny. Her granny went one step further and poured bucket of water on her in the backyard. The pure joy on Sanja face was priceless.
The girl who cries to wake up on mornings to get ready was up in an instant on hearing we are playing holi now.
S was spared much color since he is sick. But his cheeks were painted pink ;)
And after the bathe , Sanja has some gulab ka rang on her palms - she is going to show them to her aunty and friends at school -saying I played holi. I have the gulab ka rang on my face **face palms**.
But the day began with smiles and my heart is content - my daughter has got a taste of Holi colors.
Happy holi.
