Dhriti and Dhruvi - The Joy of My Life

School reopens and a list of activities begin.  Grade 2 events started with poetry writing yesterday and poetry recitation on april 1st. For the recitation you are partcising Sheakespeare's Sonnet 18.  Will update on the practise as we go Update on April 07 You managed to learn 8 lines of the 14lines. I was happy that you were able to learn atleast the 8 lines perfectly.

My little baby is now in Grade 2. Time flies. yesterday was the first day of your Grade 2 class. You went with all your new school accessories (bag, pencil box, water bottle, books).

15th March was your results. I know you don't understand what results are today but then I know how hard you worked during the exams and so was sure your results will be good. A copy of the report card will be posted soon. To celebrate your success, we (dad and me) planned a day's picnic to Water Kingdom, your favourite place. We started early but due to the holi festival the place was crowded and took long for us to get in. But once we were in you were all charged up for a day full of fun. The only sad part is were you fell down and hurt your lower lip badly. The cut was very deep and bleeded a lot. Luckly after a couple of days now it seems to have heeled. Sorry no pics as camera is not allowed inside.

I love to gift and a gift that helps to learn life lessons is the best.  Whats better than a book.  The first in the series is NO LIMITS.

Here is Dhriti with her baby cousin brother, Arihant in Bangalore.  We went to see the baby for the first time.
