Letters from Pappa : 2nd Jun 2024

  All the best , Tanchu ! Cant believe I  let a whole year and more to pass before writing a new post for you. My bad. Should I fill in the gaps on how you finished  your grade 1 and already joined grade 2 now! or should I talk about your new found love for art and craft (stay creative always !) or that you love pets!  You love the 2 dogs in the apartment so much that you talk about them in your sleep at midnight too! Lets see if you remember them going forward -one of them is Zuki and the other is Keo. Though clearly Zuki is your favorite. I'm sure you will find few photos I have taken of you and Zuki.  You have started to view photos yourself from the laptop on the google cloud backup -so hoping those survive and hence I wont add any photos explicitly here- hope along with reading  the blog you have some good time passing through digital copies of the then old photographs of the current era. You are a good kid and will remain so. I'm super proud of you. N...

Letters from Pappa : Part3 1st Feb 2023

  All the best , Tanchu ! Part 3.  Feb 1st 2023. My Dear Tanisha ,  "Goodnight Tanchu". Well  , just this is not  enough  to sleep is it  :) We have a bedtime routine  going on ;and it goes something like this : First you inquire : "Science?" - this is where I need to  tell you something about science .... i try to 'think' and cover what I can. On 'Air', 'Water','Planets','Solar  system' and so on. I used to think you are not understanding some of these but that's not the case. I see you really listen and are understanding too ......so i need to learn stuff myself now to better tell you on this topic :) Next you ask me : "Stories?" - here I need to first negotiate with you on the number of stories .... "Only 1 " I say ...." no no no no no .... 10 you say ".... "1"... "no 5"....."OK fine 2"  i say  ......"OK ,3 "-you  conclude. .... and I then proceed to ...

Letters from Pappa : Part2 14th Jan 2023

  All the best , Tanchu ! Part 2.  Jan 14th 2023. My Dear Tanisha ,  Quite some time  has passed since  the initiation of the first post. Here is wishing there isn't much of  a  gap from this one to the  next.  You have been quite busy yourself with all the activities you signed up for ! There is the dance class you are going to every Mon,Wed & Fri in the apartment organized classes. Freestyle dancing i believe is what they call it. Currently there are three numbers you  are dancing to : Coca cola song ,Gungroo  &  Galla gudiya.  Then , there is one more dance class - an informal one-  by the apartment group for the Makar sankranti festival. And, you  have  started singing classes as well! There is a teacher from Kaveri block who is teaching you.  Chandini teacher. And  yeah -  you have a new BEST FRIEND. Or to put it in your words  - Very best friend and little not frie...

All the best , Tanchu!

All the best , Tanchu ! Part 1.  Oct 30th 2022. My Dear Tanisha ,  The inspiration behind this blog , which I hope you will find an amusing read once you grow up , is the TV series which you quite enjoyed watching recently - "Good Luck Charlie". Although I wanted to name this blog as "Good Luck Tanchu" I chose a different name, you know why?. That is your mother. For some strange reason , she does not like to be told "Good  Luck". She instead prefers "All the Best". Hence the title. I hope to write more frequently here. Maybe put a spin on the current affairs on how you are right now. These are going to be a series of unedited posts.  Me and momma are busy planning your 5th Birthday for this Saturday ! Maybe the next post will add all the details on how your Bday went ahead with pics and the naughty little things you did :) Until then.  Cheers. Love , Now.  And Always. Pappa
