Kiddie talks -II

Of late, my son is totally inclined to going out on vacation.
He would say " Amma, namba oorukku pogalaam. Poittu thirumba varave vendam. Van attender, Mam ellarum nalla thedattum.Oorlaye namba irukkalam"
Last week took him to a marriage to kancheepuram and he was so excited on the concept of going to a far-away place. Though we take him out every Sunday he still wants to go on a vacation. To be specific, oorukku. A word which was taught by his friend in van who often puts leave to school. It took me nearly a month to re-inforce in him that going to school is fun which he always enjoyed right from his play school days.
I didn't face the problem of leaving my child crying on the first day of his school' He never cried,but thoroughly enjoyed the company of children. In fact when i was to send him in van to his present school, I was more mortified than him. First day we went and dropped him and while returning i came along with him in van. Second day, when i insisted on going along with him to school he refused saying, "Amma, small children thaan school vanla pogalam, parents ellam varakkoodathu." So, I stood in the street waving till the van went out of sight.
He is sociable but sensitive. He makes friends easily. He would always introduce himself to the other child and ask his name. " Ennoda peru xxx un per enna" Then iam studying L.K.G which class r u studying. And this would go on.
Last time we took him out was to thrissur but he was not able to fully appreciate since he was only 3.5yrs.
Looks like my vacation plans are going to be a big dhamakha, pun intended. My aathukarar has enrolled for variety of exams. Athuvum naan plan panna May 1st weekthaan. Hmmm , lets hope for the best.

Strange Specimen

Its been a long time since I wrote my last post. Well, I was not handcuffed or sinking with loads of work but simply coulnt put my thoughts into coherent writing. It was so much cramped with various issues and combined with my ill-health. Now-a-days i feel literally bored and want to cut off from the day-to-day activities.
Hmm, other way of saying that i want to go on a holiday. Okay now people might wonder wats this strange specimen concept where the thoughts are so human.
The underlying thing is i feel and want to go out more with my brother-in-law and co-sis than the relatives on my mothers side. Isnt strange when all the women folks would only enjoy going with their side of relatives.
Is this because my aathukarar is completely at home with his brother or my kid enjoys the outings with his cousin who is jus 1 yr elder to him. Though the common topic between the co-sisters(i.e me) revolves only around the kids - school , classes, curriculum, extra-curricular activities and food habits etc. Cause i dread going into family politics. So i choose my words carefully. Inspite of these traits i love going out with them. I even dont count the expenditure. (i love spending for others rather calculating - i hate to even spend a penny who rather wish i wud spend)
Am I sounding more like the Ektha serial ladies who do all sacrifice to see their beloved happy. I dont know.
And when iam looking for the summer trip plans i have already started including them in my plans without even consulting them. Do not know whether we would proceed together or its jus we 3 holiday. Any way looking forward for a nice holiday. Keeping my fingers crossed
