Light on Baby's face,"Ebony & Ivory" & Orchid Flower

1.Light is falling on little M’s face. She closes her eyes, opens them. She checks again to see if the light is still there.Then, she covers her face with her tiny little hands and starts to sleep.

2.Arch’s face glowing behind the candles. Everyone sings “Happy Birthday” .The soft black and white layers of Ebony&Ivory cake melts in our mouths.

3.The waitress brings the dishes. Each entrée is adorned with an orchid flower. One waitress is wearing the same flower in her hair.

Fall colors, D's Eyes & IPad

1.The ground is transformed into a bed of bright orange colored leaves, after yesterday’s rain.My car is parked in the middle. Reminds me of some bollywood movie scene.

2.D’s eyes became wider with disbelief when I told her that I don’t like listening to music, much.

3.Chuks is playing with his new IPad.He is looking at it, touching it, cleaning it and smiling to himself. He is totally excited about that like a small boy who got a new toy.

നിനക്കായ്‌..

കണ്മനി നിന്നെ ഒരു നോക്കു കാണുവാന്‍
കാതങ്ങള്‍ താണ്ടി ഞാന്‍ വന്നു,
കാലങ്ങളോളമായ്‌ ഞാന്‍ കാത്തൂ സൂക്ഷിച്ചൊരാ
കടലോളം സ്നേഹം നിനക്കേകുവാനായ്‌.

Pa's visit

The most unforgettable memory of the weekend: Grandpa hugging grand daughter for the first time.

She knows it is Pa who is looking at her curiously. But, she is looking away shyly.

Poppins looking away from Pa, but, singing to him “Twinkle Twinkle Little Star”.

Chuk's Birthday

1.“Poppins,please don’t tell Appa that we bought a gift for him.Ok?”“Ok.Ammaaaa”.As soon as the door opened,”Appa,giffff,Appa,gifffff”.

2.‘Someone’ searching inside my car for his birthday gift. Later,”How did you see me?When I checked,both the windows were closed!”.

3.The kids jumping on the air bed.

Twilight,Opening Lines & Sleep

1. Writing on a car:"Southern Wolverines" .Twilight mania at its best.

2."Rick Stood there with the gun.The gun was big.His hand was bigger". - Opening lines of Jonathan Ames' book from the serial "Bored To Death".

3.I was lying with Poppins yesterday to put her to sleep.She did not move for a while.I thought she slept and i got up slowly.Two bulging eyes and a big smile "Ammmaaaa...".

Hot cocoa, Kids &Sis' Photos

1.The hot chocolate Chuks made for me while I was struggling with the code. Thank God for such a nice hubby. Am quite sure he will have a smile at the corner of his mouth while reading this ;)

2.While all the moms at the lunch go on and on about how crazy kids behave when they are out shopping, I was secretly smiling at the thought that my daughter loves shopping. For now.

3.Miss.AA sends her snaps after hair cut. She looks pretty. When I called her to say that she looked pretty, she says she was waiting for my call.
