I just realized that my last entry was almost a year back. So 'Welcome 2010'. While there is no genuine explanation for not updating the blog all I will submit is that 2009 for me (and more so for Dipti) was the Year of Children. More precisely, their birthday parties. Saumitra (who now has at least a dozen nick names-mickey, mickoo, chicki, chickloo, gobu, betoo and so on) turned One on May 6 last year and this had to be preceded (as per our family customs) by his first tonsuring ceremony at the family shrine for this purpose in Vidhyanchal- a small temple town on the banks of Ganga in UP. And yesterday we celebrated Priya's 7th birthday in Mumbai (or Bombay, cant decide!) in a McDonald's restaurant. The contrast couldn't have been more stark between two locations. But first some pictures form each event.
A Very Happy New Year. Properly translated it means I hope this year is free of the following:
1. Terror attacks
2. Water scarcity
3. Rain affected commuting
4. Sick children
Etcetra
Till next time and hopefully in 2010 itself!
