Dhriti and Dhruvi - The Joy of My Life

Tuesday, 17th April was Kimaya's birthday.  You went to the party with Aditya.  On wednesday Nisha aunty mentioned that you behaved very nicely in the party and she was very happy with you because you were the only child to have thanked Anitha (Kimaya's mother) after the party.  All the children walked off after having their snacks and return gifts but you said Thank you and then left.  I felt so nice to hear this.  It was such a proud moment for me.  I look forward to many more such moments.  I am sure every parent would agree that when others praise your children you are on cloud 9.  Atleast I was.  One thing even I appreciate in you is the way you say Sorry and thank you. You say them very easily and when its others turn you insist.

With only 3months of training you were able to participate in the competition.  This was an effort to get you interest into the sport when you shyed away from it.  It was a saturday event.  Both of us were up and ready early in the morning.  You were not sent by the van (only participants) arranged by your Sir.  I and Dad accompanied you till the venue.  It was Kamla Vihar Sports Club in Kandivali. There were many children of various groups all set for an event.  Most of them were accompanied by their mothers.  The excitement was no less an any olympics.  The racing was good.  Though you did not fall you faired well by standing 3rd.  All your friends performed much better in their age group but then they have been doing for so long.  You are only a couple of months into it.  Next time we will work harder. Some of your skating friends are Chinmay, Vardhan, Resham, Shubangi, Nishit, Raagav & S...

Too many to publish today as i had made a note of all the evens to be published at once.  You have completed your Jr KG and now moved to Sr K G.  All the best Dhriti.

Past four months you have taken up skating classes.  Though initially not very enthu you have now slowed developed interest.  Saturday you are going for your first ever Interclub competition.  I am more nervous than anybody else.  Its not about wining but i want you to have feel of it.   Today I have bought 2 shorts for the game. Yashoda avva also is super excited and wants to come along on sat.  We are all fingers crossed.

Finally you had to visit the Dentist last month as you had 2 decays developing and also sensitivity in the tooth.  But you enjoyed the trip.  You were very good and the dentist did fill up the cavities with a Floride mixture.  Now you have started brushing your teeth better.  Dentist advised no chocolates and wafors.  But that is the one which you ask for the most.  So we have replaced these at home with more healthy Almonds and home-made ladoo.

The weekend has been good. There was small ceremony for Saroja avva. You enjoy all the guest visits. Missed both your skate and dance classes. Though enjoying by late afternoon you turned cranky. It was difficult to control you and I really worked to get my temper cool but finally had to send you out with Karan so that you come back when most of my host tasks are completed. Which meant Ii have all my time and attention only to you. In the evening after winding up everything Dad, Avva and I were having a casual talk. You were as usual lying on the bed completely covered with the blanket on. We thought you were sleep after a tiring day but your dad spotted some movements of your eating something. when he questioned what you were doing? Your instant reply was Nothing. He opened the blanket on your face to spot you eating something. On checking you just threw it down. You know what it was.... an eraser (rubber). How could you Dhriti? All of us got really upset but we did not beat you. We k...

Today i was reading the posts below and was such a wonderful moment. I just realised i have not done it for a very very long time. I should be doing this more regularly. Today is your last day of your Junior KG. Vacation starting from tomorrow. These days you love to be around with you best pal, Chotta Bheem and his team (Chutki, kalia, bolu-bolu, Jagu, Raju, Indu). Very difficult to get you off them. Weekends i keep you busy with your skates and dance classes. Will upload some snaps soon. You are such a nice gift to me. I love every moment spent with you and repent for all the time i cannot give you. Your words, actions ha lovely Still fuss with the hair do. so should be going for a hair-cut soon. Now likes to eat pastries, mousses and chocolates (Dairy Milk). Even started eating Poha (only because its krishna's favourite). But Chappati is an all time favourite.
