New year Gifts to my family

Monday, August 31, 2015

Yesterday she has got her bicycle and she is too much fond of it. From the night itself she hasn't left it.Even she kept it in our bedroom so that the bicycle is infront of her eyes. The first thin gin the morning after waking up she did is, went to the bicycle and asked me to take it out of the room. Once the bicycle came out of the bedroom, she has to ride it. Such is the fascination, that even she brushed her teeths, got dressed, and ate her breakfast without much fuss, and went to school. After returning her first task again is to ride the bicycle. The lollipop of riding the bicycle to park is doing its charm.


Surprised, shocked ofcourse pleasant shock, watching her over and over while writing here. My kid is used to throw the things on the floor whenever she doesn't like anything or activity. But just now something different happened. I asked her to put all her hairclips which she obviously has thrown on the floor, threatening her of no park visit today if not done...and surprise ahead for me, she really asked me if she has to put those in the box . On saying yes she started putting them back in its place. I don't know what is going on in her mind, but she really is doing the work.

As already I have ranted so many times about the minimum celebration, and gifting habit of hubby S, this year was full of surprises for me.
According to S kind of celebration, the occassion would be a normal affair with nothing to separate the day from the normal ones.As far as gift is concerned, then "go and buy whatever you want, or come with me and take whatever you wish". Then my egoistic side comes in action making me at loss by discarding his offer. 
 If its working day then, I guess S thinks its a crime to take the day off from work, sigh....The evening followed with a dinner at any restaurant/hotel/venue of my choice. Can you imagine even on my birthday he asks me if I want him to bring cake for me...gross....Inspite of my love to cakes and pastries I have to say no thanks, and so I settle with the cake deprived bday girl, or lady to be precise . And if I ever tease him for it, he would make an innocent face and say " I asked you and you yourself said No." Grrrrrrrr. At that moment I really feel like to punch him on the nose :P

So now what is special this year? Waking up in the morning , recieving wishes from everyone, finishing off the daily works, pick up the phone check the facebook, and find a special wish from S.
I mean quite surprising for me, Mr. S who really is not into anything like the excited ones for the occassions, leaves the wishes, which everyone knows and I was unaware until I connected with the internet. How great would it have been to hear those words from him face to face.Still those wishes do count, as those are the only ones making the day special in whatever little way it can.
So thought of saving those wishes and securing them in my space here, kya pata next year ho na ho ;)

Anniversary Surprise

Birthday Surprise

My kid use to follow her grandfather a lot. She visit park, local market, etc with him. So its kind of real comfort zone between both of them without me worrying to take her to outdoors.
Recently this scenario took place and its left all of us in smiles. Whenever her grandfather purchase stuff from the local area shop, she takes the money from his hand and handover herself to the shop owner. Yesterday it was a Rs 500 currency note in her hand. She observed it and finally indicating the mahatma gandhi image printed on the note, asked her grandfather ' Dadu , ye aap ho ?' {meaning, grandfather is that your picture on the currency note } what could be the answer other than the giggles and laughters.

The aged and bald grandfather really matches with the Mahatma Gandhi picture on the currency ;)
