Order Please......

"Chicken, Corn and Milo please"...
The sales person from McDonalds gives me a questioning looks...
With a smile, I just say 'Yes, just small change, Milo without ice'...
The doubt was because, the order was placed by Sanju. He didn't even wait for me to place the order.
Now-a-days, the moment we reach the counter, he starts ordering...And it is always the same order...
Now he clearly knows if we are in McDonalds or some other restaurant...and he differentiate McDonalds chicken nuggets from any other restaurant nuggets...he prefers only Mcdonald chicken nuggets.
Definitely there is something about McDonalds that attracts kids....And he is not so keen on the toys...

Racial Harmony Day

Singapore provides a good platform for children from different nationality to learn and live together.  To mark this culture most of the schools in Singapore have Racial harmony day celebration.
This is first year for me and Sanjiv to take part in this celebration. His school had Indian, Chinese and Japenese cultural activities. It was nice to see the kids and teachers wearing dress that represents their country and culture.
You can enjoy the day captured through my camera lens at

Word of Aprreciation

It is a nice feeling well someone comments on how nice a dress looks on you. And it is much more nice when you get such comments from your son.  For first time, I got to enjoy this. I was wearing a simple cotton Kurta yesterday and for some unknown reason, Sanjiv loved that kurtha. He looked at me and said, amma very nice.He hugged me, generously gave me few kisses. And after we came back from dinner, he didn't let me change the dress. Looks like now I have to take Sanjiv while I go shopping.

PS: This blog was due since Jun 25th.

Surprise statements

In past two days these lines from Sanjiv really made me say woh !!!
I showed him cruise ship and immediately he said 'amma you have life jacket in ship'.I was completely speechless after that.
Then I showed a rocket toy thinking that he will learn a new word. Then came a sentence from him at rocket speed 'amma you go to moon in rocket'. !!!
It was a lesson for me. My son has grown to a level where I should talk to him in sentence and not in words.
