Almost a month again, sigh! Why can't I update regularly? Why?
Anyway, whys aside, San took her first off from school today, owing to a sore throat and loss of sleep. She's very happy about this off and proudly told me that she'd be declared absent in her class today! Yup, that's as good as winning a medal for her. ;-)
She has grown up, she talks grown up, and she expects us to behave like grown ups. What does that mean? It means that we need to talk sense and kiddish stuff doesn't work much now. That aside, she's enjoying school a lot. They need to go dressed up as a freedom fighter and recite a few lines (dialog) as a part of the Republic Day celebration next week. I'm still thinking who to dress her up as. Any ideas (apart from the very commonly done Rani Laxmi Bai)? :-)

Good to have you back :)
ReplyDeleteMay be you can do Sarojini Naidu and Sanvi can recite one of her poem?
Thanks, ZM. Yup, we've considered Sarojini Naidu, and looking at some other options too. Have to finalize something by tonight!
DeleteHow about Sarojini Naidu or Begum Hazrat Mahal or even Kasturba Gandhi?
ReplyDeleteha ha :D happiness of bunking the school is so universal.
Thanks for the suggestions, Jas! Will finalize something by tonight. Oh, yup, she loved bunking the school that dau, just like we all used to. :D
DeleteIt's a great sign that San has matured and is learning the ropes fast. School and social interraction and exposure make today's kids so smart. Hence, handling them too correctly too becomes top priority. San could dress up as Subhash Chandra Bose (will have some powerful dialogues to deliver) or Kasturba, or maybe even Bhagat Singh or Azad.
ReplyDeleteCheck Che Guevara's outfit Divy I think it will look awesome on San.
ReplyDeleteyep girls become lil ladies and that means well...u know that that means
Suprise us with a foto how San was dressed Im curious.
wish u and Nitin and San an awesome weekend.
Hugs
thanks for the suggestion, Marij. :) she needs to dress up as an India freedom fighter, so I'm gonna choose a simple one who San will agree to dress up as. :) So many tantrums already when it comes to dresses! Yup, I sure will post her picture next week. :)
DeleteUh oh...time to act like grown ups :) Bharath mata...only something orange white and green needed?
ReplyDeleteShe really wants to be 'grown-up' now! Do post pics of what she finally dressed up as!
