Akshaya is 6 today

And we are back at the play area we came to last year
She was looking forward to it so much but then finds our one year is long time and it's not quite as fun as she thought it would be:) 
But still having fun .

Akshaya my darling

Looking at the posts - so many about ashwin and aish recently, so few about akshaya

She is my sweet sweet sweet heart
She calls me a couple of times a day while I'm at work
she helps me at home - cleaning, making the bed, wiping windows, fetching things, setting up her own cupboard
She's busy planning her 6th birthday party - the one she is the most involved in! mental note to self - make sure I celebrate 6th birthdays with the other two too - younger than that, no need to worry so much!
sweetheart is going to Primary one next year and she has such cute nerves about it - 

Ashwin updates

He hugged his sister and she just shrugged him off
He turns to me to say, Akshaya doesn't love me but I love her!
Wipe my tears aatha!
Properly, properly properly - my little OCD son!
A girl frowned at me at the playground - this affected him for a few days!

teaching him anger management now - his own code for me to remind him to calm down is" stop crying - then count to 20!)

have you tried asking him to stop crying when he is a rage? he really tries to stop! he stops, holds his breath, looks down with quivering lips - its a picture to melt hearts!
I love him so much.
I love them all so so so much.

I am so rough with the kids at times.
yesterday I splashed akshaya's face with cold water from the tap coz she was crying to brush her teeth, and I whacked Ashwin so hard coz he was crying at dinner time over some trivial thing.
horrible mummy.

I have anger management issues too, I see.

and such sensitive sweet children.

I sympathise with the lady in the story by Alfian Sa'at -


baby updates

The little sweetheart is my Happy Baby
She's happy to see me,
she picks up things so fast!
she can say baba, for bye bye
and Aatha, aatha, for ... aatha, of course

She points the remote control at the TV now, and takes a key to the door
she helps herself to her brother's fried fish in a bowl
and cries angrily if I put rice in my mouth instead of hers

she loves being tickled by saro and loves his massages too - as do the rest of us though I don't get his massages so much nowadays! three kutty competitors, how can I hope to do so?

she and ashwin and akshaya love to just sit by our window and watch the world go by, its a different view in the day and at night
