We got this book from the library last week. Sanjay just picked it up and wanted it. I guess he was attracted by the cover of the book. It is really a very nice book about our emotions and how we can express them. It is very simple that even Sanjay can follow it…

Wordless Wednesday – Blogathon Post 15
This was drawn by Sarath in his art class at school.
Can’t wait to grow up – Blogathon Post 7
Today at dinner time, Sarath was refusing to eat something and I came up with a simple story about some food that did not like until I tried it 3 times. From there the conversation went like this: Sarath: When did this happen? Me: in 2002. Sarath: Were you an adult at that time? Me:…
It’s a girl’s book – Blogathon Post 3
Sarath’s teacher sent home a reading sheet. The kids have to read aloud everyday for 15 min and the write the name of the book in that sheet. They turn it in to the teacher at the end of every month and if they have done a minimum of 15 days, they get a pizza…
Off to Kindergarten

The journey to Dream Land…..
Every day bed time is something that I love and hate for various reasons. When it is time to go to bed, somehow the kids just know that they can delay it as much as they want. Sarath just takes the longest possible time to brush his teeth and Sanjay wants to brush his teeth…
Valentines Day
Our Valentines day was just another day. We did not do anything special or get each other gifts. Usually I get a card for S and he gets me flowers. This year we just wished each other and that was it. Sarath’s class had a little Valentines day party and the kids exchanged cards and…
To find the balance between kids and work
I have always seen myself as a working mom. My mom was a working mom and she was amazing at balancing her time between work and home. So, after I graduated, I seriously started looking for jobs and unfortunately in my case no one was ready to sponsor a work visa even though I had…
