Fun on Anniversary

Hello Again
Last week we celebrated our 6th Anniversary. 6 years.....
Cant imagine that 6 years have passed by. I still remember the day when I proposed Jovita....and hold your breath....she said YES. And the journey began.
Now 6 years after the marriage, we have a little wonder to give us company. The little wonder named Sahej is the joy of our lives. He brings constant laughs, headaches into our lives. Laughs becauses his actions are so cute, his questions sometimes so hilarious and his observations so startling that we wonder if he is still not 4 years old. 
So on the 14th we went out with complete family package which includes both our parents and the most important member of the entourage, Sahej. We went for lunch to Barbeque Nation, which was enjoyable. Then we lingered on to where we should spend the rest of the day and finally managed to move to Prasadz which Jovita has been constantly haggling about to go and see. So we went there and had a lot of fun. We first went to see the Mirror maze and it was amazing. Then Sahej n his mumma went for a 4D movie which they thoroghly enjoyed. After that we went to see the Bhoot Bangla. The visit was supposed to drive us crazy, but actually Jovita was the one which might have scarred the hell out of the so-called ghosts inside the bangla. Anyways we had a laugh at the ghosts and on one instance, a couple who went alongside us were touching the hairs of one of the ghosts to see what actually he was wearing. We were asking the ghosts for the route inside. So all in all it was not scarry. But the day was fun....
Sahej is spending his days at home these days. Its his holidays. So he is as lazy as one can be. Waking at around 11 in the morning.....playing all day long, watching Mr. bean on TV, watching his "ball waale gaane" which is actually 9XM, and then crying when we try to get him to sleep by threatening to call watchman.  I am still amazed by the energy he shows. Whether its 12 in the morning or 1 in the night. He is constantly moving, running, jumping without showing any thing remotely lethargic.
And he is getting smarted by the day. That day when I was watching IPL and he had to watch Mr. Bean, I sent him to the other room. He went there and set the channel on which IPL was coming on that TV and called me that "Papa aapka IPL aa raha hai". When I went to see what was he saying, he told me to sit there and watch the match there in that TV while he came back to his room and to his big TV and watched Mr. Bean there. So, I was practically thrown out of my room by a 4 year kid....

Keep going son....
Chalo will write some time again next week with some time next week.
Bye

Holidays started

Hello Sahej Ji

So how r u?
Its been a week that I last wrote to you.
At this time, you are at home, enjoying your long vacations, probably watching Bhootnath nth time and trying to get new ideas from the CD remote control.
Seriously Sahej, how do you manage this.
You seem to have a mastery of learning new things, be it remote control or mobile or a new game or new acts.
I still remember the day when you taught me how to get the right click menu options on my motorola ming touch screen phone. I was amazed to see you find the songs, and play them. I also remember your finding "Chini Kum" song the first time when you were barely 18 mnths old. you learnt your first alphabet "C" from Cheeni Kum :)
I also remember the day when we first watched "Dhamaal", and all the people in it were searching for a "W" to get the treasure and when they show 4 big palm trees inclined in a way to form a big W, you screemed at them to tell them "yeh hai W, yeh hai W'. Kamaal hai sir ji.....
Last night also when I reached home, you were busy watching Bhootnath and then you showed me some new tricks on the CD menu which I didnt knew. Hats off to you Sahej....

Last week we attended your Parents Teacher Meet(PTM) in Euro Kids. Sangeeta madam was all praises for you. She said you are perfect in studies. She will want more kids like you in her class. She told us that when ever she teaches a thing in class, you generally always know the thing beforehand. Or even if you do not know it, you grasp it in no time and then tel others what it is. The teacher when asks others to repeat the thing, the students reply back "Raj Inder se poochho, usko pata hai". Last week you also got the DVD of your annual day from school. It didnt worked on the CD player and then you told the teacher "Aisee CD kyon dete ho jo chalti nahin hai. Papa ne yahan lagyee then wahan lagayee par chali hi nahin" and then your mam happily replied "I will get it changed". When your mam once got angry with you as you were not following her orders and scolded you, you tol her "Aise baat kyon kar rahe ho, pyaar se bolo na". When you again did not listened to her and she said "I am not talking to you", you sweetly replied "mat karo baat, main to DPS ja raha hu, waapis nahin aayunga". Bechari mam.

Aaj kal aap bhootnath dekhte dekhte aalu ke paranthe khaate hai. Good hai.
We will be getting your DPS books, black shoes n socks and dress this weekend probably.
Chalo take care...
njoy your holidays....
Bye...
Love you saheji...

Last Week in EuroKids

Sahej

So you are getting bigger and smarter by the day.
This is your last week in EuroKids. The school closes this friday i.e 3rd April. Last week we went to your Graduation day. Yes you have read correctly and I have not made a blunder here. Last week thursday i.e. 26th March 2009 was your Graduation Day in which you passed from EuroKids play way to Euro Juniors. You, along with a couple of your classmates were given a tag of "Communicator" on stage. Your teacher told everybody that you are the second teacher of the class and when ever she is not there you hold the fort. Also your principal told everyone that when the practice for the annual day in which you had performed Bhangra(Yes...you did a bhangra on stage and I have a CD recording to prove it) were over you told that "practice kyon nahin karwate bale bale ki, ABC to mummy padha degi, bale bale ki practice karwayo" 

Now coming to Annual Day. Your annual day was held in Ravindra Bharti Auditorium in Hyderabad. You were to perform Bhangra on "Gud Nalo Ishq Mitha" song. And you did a pretty good job. You enjoyed yourselves a lot and dance was very good. Your teacher had asked your mom to request you to keep yourself sticking to your place and not keep running on the stage, which we had all hoped for. But you stick to the plan and did a wonderful job. Earlier in your race which was held in Oct 2009, you were supposed to run with a girl, come to a place where jackets were placed, help the girl wear the jacket and then run to the finish spot. You did the first part fine of running and coming to the place where the jacket was placed. After that the girl tried to put on the jacket which you also helped her do, but you both failed. She kept trying and you as usual kept jumping and doing something or the other. In the end, you were not among the toppers but still got yourself a good medal.

You have a long vacation coming up. After which, you are about to start a new and exciting phase in your life. You are going to DPS this June. A very prestigious school. You will have to change a lot in yourselves. First of all being getting up early.....very early in fact. Your bus will go at 7.15...so get up by 6.30. Very difficult task which I agree with you. But which needs to be done.

So Sahej ji.........now a days you watch only BANKU bhaiya on TV. You get up in the morning and say "Papa CD laga do", you get ready n go to school and then come back n drop your bags and run to your room and say "CD laga do". You keep watching BhootNath again and again. This is an advancement over "Jab We Met" and "Race", which were your initial favorites.

I have started this mail conversations with you because I need you to know what you used to do when you were small. One day you will be big enough to access this mail id, read mails, send mails to your friends. I wanted you to take yourself on the journey of your adulthood. I had wanted to set up a blog where I could record your journey, but have not been successful so far. So took this email route. Hope you dont get too bored with this. 

I also wanted you to give some clarifications on your name. You might consider your name too old for your generation. But do keep in mind that you are a blessing given to us by Babaji and Veerji gave us the vision to th epath to get you. The name is also given By Veerji himself and to not name you as per Him would have been a contempt which we did not want to do. So named you Raj Inder with a space in between the two word to give a some what modern touch to a old name.

Ill also give you a little insight into your deeds these days. You are much smarter for your age. You are a great story teller and can plan and execute any story at any given time. You can pass the blame on anybody(which you normally do it on me). Yesterday itself you did a smart enough mischief. you were watching bhootnath when dadi started peeking into your room. You warned her to not do so and when she repeated, you got up and closed your door. A little snippet of things to come in future....

Chalo...
Ill close it here. Will keep updating your mail id with these mails......
Hope you read these blogs one day...

Bye n Take Care
Have a good n njoyable last week in EuroKids
