Mother's day wishes - Posted on 11th May 2014

11th May 2014

"The most precious necklace for a mother is that of her child's arm around her neck".A very Happy Mother's day to all the mothers and also to the mother's of all those, who read this..Being a mom to a lovely boy like Srivishnu make me cherish every moment of motherhood  ..Having a mom, who has sacrificed a lot both personally and officially in bringing me up and my brother Sudersan Sridharan is really an inspiration!!!

Would like to dedicate few lines from song "Uyirum Neeye" from the film "Pavithra" penned by Lyricist "Vairamuthu",set to music by AR Rahman and wonderfully rendered by "Unnikrishnan" to my mother,to my mother in law who has been like a mother to me since my wedding and to all the wonderful mothers on this mother day:)!!!!
"Vinnai padaithan mannai padaithan,kaatrum mazhizhum oliyum padaithan,bhoomikku adhanaal nimmadhi ilai,saami thavithaan Thayai Padaithan"   !!!! — with Sriram Narasimhan.

Srivishnu telling who he is - Posted on 6th May 2014

6th May 2014
It was getting late and I was trying to put Srivishnu to sleep..It was more than half an hr..He was doing something or the other like playing,talking etc...I was constantly telling him "Srivishnu Seekaram thoongu(quickly sleep)".At one stage i got restless and told him "Please Seekaram thoongu"..To this he immediately replied "I am not please,i am Srivishnu"    — with Sudersan Sridharan and Sriram Narasimhan.

Srivishnu's reaction on seeing me record him pronounce "K" as Th" - Posted on April 30th 2014

30th April 2014

Since Srivishnu stil pronounces "K" as "Th",thought will note down all the words that begins with 'K' in both Tamil and English like the ones we use frequently(kitchen,cooker,kovam,come,kaami to name a few) and record it while making Srivishnu pronounce these words..Felt it will be real fun to listen to it even after years.May be even Srivishnu will too enjoy listening to it once he grows up.I started noting down the words since Sunday and also started recording it periodically.Yesterday called him to have dinner,he said "Thonja(konja) neram thazhichi(kazhichu) varen" and started playing..Within few seconds he came running to me and said "Amma naan sonnadha note pannaya" :)OMG remba shame'a pochu..Though he didnt kalachify me intentionally still couldnt stop laughing at wat he said   — with Sudersan Sridharan and Sriram Narasimhan.

Srivishnu's last working day @ his Preschool "Acorn Academy" Posted on 9th April 2014

April 9th 2014

My eyes became wet on watching my little Srivishnu wear his preschool uniform for his last working day today.Alas, his ten months of preschool life has come to an end !!!Though we put him in preschool during June 2013 it was almost October end by the time he started to get settled there..I should mention about the patience,dedication and the motherly care given by his teachersJothi Priya Shashirekha Kannan Shiva Shankari Gayatri Karthik as well as their non teaching staffs @ his preschool Acorn Academy..They have indeed molded this fussy, shy toddler to a brave and courageous little boy 
It was tears of mixed emotions - "of Joy and happiness upon his successful completion of his preschool,the thought of having to part with such wonderful teachers who were indeed like a second mom to him while he was at school,anxiety of how he is going to react to this new situation(new school/new environmenment/new classmates)". Am sure he is going to miss his aunties(preschool teachers) and his friends!!(:
With "N" number of doubts as to why his aunties will not be there in his new school,where will his frnds go and so on,my baby, oops my little boy Srivishnu is ready to go to LKG tomorrow.
 
Sriram Narasimhan and I,as parents pray to the Almighty to give him good health and career as he keeps his first step towards it while at the same time thanking God for giving him such wonderful preschool teachers !!!
