playing games

Kabir likes to show off the new games he learns from his friends in school

Sunday morning goodness

Independence day 2013

Like the past 2 years, we went to the IITB Independence Day celebration at the main building this morning. After flag hoisting, when everyone sang the National Anthem, Anurag was surprised that everyone knew the "song from his school". 

Kabir wanted to know more about the relevance of Independence Day and I tried to give him a 101 on the freedom struggle. It made him somewhat upset and he had so many more questions that I think I need to find him a good book on this subject.

On a side note, we have been biking a lot on campus and it was all the more fun today with the tricolour in front of the bicycles.

and more puzzles...

 Independence day morning was spent working on all the puzzles that they own (after the early morning flag hoisting ceremony)

Puzzle mania or vehicle mania?

Anu has been bitten by the puzzle bug. There's no stopping him now!

Calvin on parenting

I wonder about this often as a parent.

None, unfortunately. In fact, it most likely is!

When dads "lean in"

Do you see anything wrong in this picture? Look carefully!

If something looks strange with Kabir's shirt, that's because he is wearing it INSIDE OUT!! For the entire day at school, he was wearing his shirt this way. Guess who got him ready for school this morning?! I suppose this is what happens when half-asleep parents have to get their kids ready for school at 6:45am.

(btw, to give some credit, you've got to appreciate the effort that must go into buttoning up a shirt thats inside out :-))
