Can you believe I am one year old? It just feels like yesterday when I started writing on this spot. Boy am I thrilled or what to be one year old. I am big boy now!!! After teasing my parents for the whole year, I actually helped myself. I went to bath by myself (with a towel up on my shoulder), combed my hair and in fact looked into the Toys R Us bag myself. No trouble at all!!!
Okay - What did we do on my first birthday? It was a personal and close family day. Amma made yummy Badam (almond) Halva a sweet dish. We went to temple in the afternoon. Took Lord Krishna's blessing and then went out for dinner in the hip Mantra restaurant. I got a seat and china of my own (finally a much deserved respect!). Don't ask me what I ate. There were all sort of things that was being put on the plate but small bits and pieces though. I thoroughly enjoyed the dinner.
I have learned several new things
- I can spot an aeroplane from almost anywhere
- Namaste
- I find interesting stuff in a funny place called Trash can
- Not all eatables are to my liking and not all my likings are eatables
- Peek-a-boo (my version is fantastic. You got to watch the video)
Some of my favorite items (and even appa and amma's) over the past couple of months
- Seeing Appa come home after being away for few days
- 'Gakka'
- funny (as amma calls 'chulli') taste, texture and temperature of ice-cream
- Swooooooosh sessions on the swing
- Ball-Catch-Trash
- Jai Jai vittala
- Driving while sleeping (or is it me sleeping while pappa is driving)
While it has been a pretty eventful year, I overheard pappa saying - "Saaranga grew so fast - his college fund didn't move an inch.... Tough times ahead..." I don't know what it means but I assume it meant something. Got to go, lot of preparation to do to welcome Urva Ajja and dodda. They are coming on July 1st.
Namaste,
