GREAT NEWS - Asha Maami has submitted her thesis for Phd

Just came to know that Asha Maami has finally completed her doctoral thesis and submitted her report on "A study on the effect of 8MeV electron irradiation on semiconductor devices using microtron". It will take me a few years to understand the title let alone the thesis. However we are all very proud of you maami. This is a fantastic achievement.

Hopefully thesis will be reviewed and we can all call you Dr.

What is this language

For all the grown ups there, this is a quick request. Of late I have started hearing a new language at home. Appa and amma are talking this way. Please help me understand what they are saying

Appa to Amma: Where did you keep the "C" "A" "K" "E"?

Amma says : In the fridge

Appa to Amma: Can you pleae give me a piece and by the way give me some "J" "U" "I" "C "E"

Amma to Appa: Eat the "C" "A" "K" "E" after you finish eating "C" "H" "A" "N" "N" "A" "M" "A" "S" "A" "L" "A"?

Almost every sentence has a few of these words spelled out. They say it so fast, it is very difficult to understand what they are saying.

Please help me understand what they are talking.

Thank you "ಸಾಗರದಾಚೆಯ ಇಂಚರ" for judiciously following every post.

With Warm hugs,

Saaranga

Splish - Splash - Splosh

Wow,

What a surprise it was. I had no idea that my second birthday was going to be so much fun. Amma drove all the way from New Jersey to Rhode Island and we spent quite a few days with Appa. Appa was going to the CVS Charity classic on Saturday and Sunday. How can we let him miss my birthday? Not a chance.

The hotel where appa stays had a regular pool and another spa pool. It took amma forever to force me out of the water. I had so much fun splashing water on everyone. Simple trick to enjoy splashing water - "Close your eyes". Check this photo.

On Monday 22nd June, I should have guessed something was up when Appa showed from work early (if you consider 6PM early!). He had that little smirk on his face and he and amma were talking in "sh-sh" language. When I went down with them to play with my basketball, I saw the cake, balloons and Happy Birthday banner. That was a total surprise. Having visited few of my friends on their birthday, this was pretty cool. Appa gave me a new shirt, pant as gift and more importantly sunglasses. I look really cool in it
