we played holi!!!! both momma and son. so much so that we forgot to color baba or maa :( or even my thammi....tintin dislikes ppl colouring his face or hands or any part of him and he hates water being splashed by buckets...that is what is his version of holi. to me, holi was all about getting drenched with his pals in the society common plot and smearing others and self with colours
26th was his last day at anvil. i will miss his school, teachers more than perhaps tintin!!! nice of baba to click a pic on the last day just as he finished school
we both wait impatiently to get our train ticket to madras confirmed....and as i wait for my friend to get the confirmations, tintin asks me "uncle phone tulche na kano? train chalacche?" ;) and when finally speak to my pal, tintin takes over and tells him "uncle humara ticket confirm kara do na!" love him

tintin has some allergy, his blood report revealed. he is blood positive, the report confirmed :) i too am B positive. just hope he never ever requires blood in his life. love him sooo much.
my life revolves around him. his new school starts on april 4. his school uniform and books, waterbottle, lunch box, pencial box, crayon set is all set :) i am excited although anxious as he will not be in comfort of anvil anymore which was more of a neighbourhood school and so homely. i wish all the best for him EVER....btw, for his allergy, he needs to take some medication for a month...that should take care of it. while a neighbour suggests that i give him turmeric and water, he refuses, in the process, i have started taking turmeric!!! :) thatss my boy :)
we are off to chennai on 29th...yahoo
tomorrow, he would celebrate holi in school
dnt remmeber if i mentioned that his stage performance was cute...there was a step in which he was supposed to hit his buttocks and he enjoyed that LOL the song was about a son being rebuked by his dad for being naughty :)
yesterday. we went out with ish-saji to celebrate saj's buttday. natrani was crowded, so we moved to fortune and enjoyed some lovely dinner by the pool...tintin was so tired by the end of the day that we both hit the bed as soon as we reached home.

i avoid a fast lane as i have my little one on board....he shoots back : are you scared of trucks!!!" phew!

i tell him "i gotta pay my premium"...he says...the one you get at the petrol pump!!! welll....i meant LIC premium, and he meant IOC PREMIUM PETROL!!!!!

tintin has recovered. touchwood. he went to school today and even went to play last evening. am relieved

A devout bengali when it comes to goddesses, i had asked my son to put some flowers and billi patra from saraswati's feet in one of his books. We belive she showers intellect to us all thus. Yesterday, he found those dried flowers and asked me So, Has This Book Become Intelligent !

Narrating Krishna yashoda´s story i tell him how the little one is quizzed by her for mouthing soil.....i ask my fellow why he too had once put mud in his mouth. Almost immediately, he tells me Because I Am Krishna!

me and tintin are due to visit chennai for a fortnight from march 29. we both need a break i guess

he has been sick...a fever on sunday night became 102.6 while we were at the doc's. a blood test and by the time we were home, he was running 103.6. tests confirmed low WBC count, indicating flu. without waiting for anything else, doc asked me to administer tamiflu....he has been under medication since monday. today is the last day. tom is doc's checkup due. relieved. he would run 99 fever almost every day...but since swine flu is prevalent, we had to be careful. we were scared,. honestly. but touchwood, he has recuperated. i would move around with masks and he would ask me if i have become a doc

this morning, he got hit on his buttocks for misbehaving. i had to explain eventually why i did that and why he should behave not just with me but with everyone else. he tried to step on zom babu's bedding with his chappals on...i told him to be respectful towards everyone, including our zom baby :) love both of them

tintin refers to his undies as nang-guri chaddi

he called me a balls-man while playing cricket the other day!!!! well said!
we played cricket just before dinner and it was fun :)
tintin has mild fever since two days...doc says it is dry cough....he missed school today. hope he recovers fastttt....love him

pointing at a gun-wielding pic of james bond (pierce brosnan), i tell him he is JAMES BOND. he says : oh, GEMS BALL!!!! you Actually tend to hear what you Want to hear :)

me and tintin attempted restoring goddesss saraswati's idol :) happy.
