What can you say?!

Conversation at home

Me (for the 1000th time) : "guys! It's time to go to bed"
Kids: "........." (no sound)
Me: "GUYS"
N: " can we lie down and read a book?"
Me: "okay" (whatever just be in bed)
N: "kaaarthik, come! Mumma said we can read"
K: "ok"
Me: sigh of relief
K: (popping his head out of the room) "is it morning in America?"
Me: (irritated) "yes!"
K : (gleefully) "so we don't have to sleep, it's morning!"

I guess if Alan Jackson and jimmy buffet could drink because it was five O'clock somewhere... k got the meaning of "it's morning somewhere"

Adieu, 2016!

Another year comes to an end.

2016 in my personal documentation would go down as the year that

- We did our first road trip through the mountains of North India - Ok, honestly that was a hype. We just drove to Kasauli... nevertheless, there were mountains and it was North India (ha!)
- We tripped around the beautiful island of Mauritius
- I signed up for a course called Enhancing Early Education.
- N started Soccer training
- N started Keyboard lessons
- K started going for story telling sessions (I didn't want him to feel left out)
- K started his formal school at Shikshantar
- My running and yoga took a back seat
- We did lot of last minute planning and travel.
- We had a lovely summer holiday at Mysore, attended cousins wedding.
- We had floods in Gurgaon and V had to walk back from metro station to home in knee deep water!
- We enjoyed lot of little things that I have forgotten now

I have no goals or resolutions for the New Year, I am old enough to understand that resolutions don't really work for me.

Happy 2017!
