Aghoo and I have been in India for almost 6 weeks now.We are both having a great time- and getting pampered.
First couple of weeks just flew by in a frenzy- thanks to my sisters wedding and the chaos surrounding wedding. It makes me sad to think that there will be no more weddings in our immediate families for a long time- because both my sister and HD's brother are married now.Yes- there will be cousins weddings in a few years.. but will we be able to make it ? I dont know..
After the wedding, I have been going for regular treatment for my backache- traction, IFT, yoga etc etc.
Aghoo is having a BLAST with her daddy thatha,amma palya, akka palya, selvi akka, obama thatha, Elango thatha, hari thatha and various palyas and mamas.
She speaks quite a bit of tamil now and is very conversant even with strangers!
She wakes up at 6.30 and goes down to amma palya and selvi akka ( when I sleep in ofcourse). She has her milk and breakfast, while watching kakas kuruvis and squirrels. She then plays with her amma palya from 10-12.30. They get all her dolls( Krishna ummachi, Ganesha ummachi,Linda and Hannah) brushed, bathed and send them to school. They then become "(m)iss catherine " and "(m) iss claudia"[her teachers].
They " teach " them stories ( mythological stories watered down) and sing etc. They then make mummum with choppu toys and feed them. Then it is " thacha time" for all the dolls. Aghoo then has her lunch.
Then she plays with her daddy thatha for an hr or so and then sleeps for a little bit.
Then she wakes up, has an egg dosa or something and milk- and plays with akka palya and selvi akka.
Someone usually visits us ( some relative) and she will play hide and seek with them. She again plays with thatha and palya in the evening. She only comes to me after dinner for her bed time story and sleep:)
I am on a schedule too, with yoga class and 2 sessions of traction/IFT.
Thanks to my back ache(!), we both are enjoying a good break from our routines.
Aghoo loves the attention she is getting in India. More later..
