Parenting is the most important and toughest job in the world – as far as I know. It is just so difficult sometimes that you just do not know what to do. In the last three years of being parents, me and S had to learn a lot about raising a very determined but the…

Terrible twos and trying threes
When Sarath hit 2 years, everybody (especially parents of older kids) told us to be prepared for what’s coming next. The ‘terrible twos’. We were scared. But, he was the easiest kid on the block.

Our trip to Orlando!
Our trip was a long one so, I am going to split it into 2 or 3 posts. Let me start with our flight trip and our hotel. Although we traveled on the same dates, me and DH had to take separate flights to get there. DH’s company booked his ticket and when we tried…
I am back….

The Completed Hickory Dickory Dock
By Jim Aylesworth. A very nice book. It is the extended version of the age old nursery rhyme. As the clock strikes from one to twelve, the mouse does a lot more than just running down. The mouse has a name Kevin (which we find out later in the story), rolls on the floor, shows…
Am I living a healthy life??
Living a healthy life is not so easy. There are a lot of things to take care of and these habits need to stay with us for life. That is very very difficult. I have been trying to make healthy habits but, they do not stick with me. I just do not have the will…
Change is the law of life :)
I read this somewhere and have been thinking about it all last week. Last Saturday was the last working day for my dad. He is now a retired man! It kind of feels weird to think that he is not going to work anymore! It is a big change! I mean as long as I…
