Ajja eats chocolate

On an usual Sunday outing, Chinni grabbed a chocloate while we were shopping. Nothing new in it. On the way back home, she was still holding it and not willing to eat. N got a little curious and suggested to eat it or else will melt. Chinni replied "I will eat at home".

But since it was sunny, chocolate started melting really fast. The suggestion was little modified like "keep the chocolate in refrigator for some time and then eat it". Chinni replies "don't keep chocolate in refrigator, ajja (grandpa) will eat it"!!!

Now I know why mom always complain about dad eating lot of sweets.

A wave of Happiness

N and Chinni had been to Dharwar for over 10 days during Ganesh Chaturti. That week only one day was work for me, but I still didn't accompany them. I took a break for myself and I felt so fresh when then returned back. 

I really don't know what changes I have gone through but definitely I concentrate a lot on Chinni now. Before that I used to just sit in front of tv and scroll through channels after work hours. No matter Chinni pulled me for play, I used to make excuses and avoid. This is not happening now. I am instead pulling Chinni to play with me.

And since 2 days, the first thing I am doing, after work hours, is prepare a juice and make her drink. There is a wave of happiness when Chinni drinks it without resistance. And she is happy too. She hugs and kisses me and calls "Pappa...Pappa....Pappa" innumerable times. And and and, the most important thing is I have started feeding her slowly, Chinni accepts it too, otherwise its only N who has to feed her.

Somebody has truly said "There is lot of happiness in giving", not sure if somebody has actually said that, if not then that somebody is none other than me ;)

Is it just me?

Here is a situation. What do you guys generally do on a long, very long weekend, due a to festival in between the week? Neither you can't plan for a trip nor you can stay at home. Well, avoiding another option here, visiting in-laws!!!!

I generally don't want to travel unless its a non-before-visited location of a holiday. Kind of reluctance steps in when the same routine steps up on such occasions.

And more over its hard to convince spousey about this. A couple of days gets killed not talking, arguing, convincing and finally paying a hefty price of gifting the better half (its always the W getting the benefit here).

So is it just me ?
