Srivishnu's 4th Birthday - Posted on 26th October 2014

26th October 2014


It was 10.15 pm on the night of 24th October (on friday night).I was putting Srivishnu to sleep..He was soo excited that he didnt get sleep..
Reason :The next day (25th october ) was his birthday..Since he is now 4 years he understands things happening around him..He had 'n' number of doubts :
Srivishnu :What is birthday?
Me:The day u came to this world
Srivishnu :From where did i come?
Me:God snt you to me to take care of u
Srivishnu :(confused):See how big I am,how was i inside your little stomach?? 
Me:Now u r growing up..U were very tiny when u were born..
With a sparkle in his eye which showed his eagerness and enthusiasm,our conversation continued..Finally he looked around our room,the quick decorations that me and Sriram made before he came to our room to sleep..He hugged us and said thank u amma and appa  The happiness with which he uttered those words cant be expressed in words..Perhaps that's what is the joy of parenthood ..Our prayers to the almighty for our Srivishnu's happy,prosperous and healthy life !!!!

Srivishnu's 1st parent teacher meeting at his school SSK - Posted on 26th August 2014

26th August 2014

Sriram Narasimhan and I attended the first parent teacher meeting @ Srivishnu's school recently.This is how his teacher started to tell about him"Very shrewd and active,attentive in class,interactive,posses leadership qualities and so on"... We were very proud on hearing that when came the last few sentences" at the same time very mischievous,not able to sit at one place for a few mins,keeps roaming all around"..I have heard the same words years back but it was my dear little brother Ajay Sudersan Sridharan then OMG years have gone veryyyyy fast!!!
Finally his teacher told an incident about him which i coudn't stop posting..It seems a new boy has joined his class recently..They have come from abroad..On his first day he was terribly crying wanting to go home and was constantly trying to run towards the classroom door..Tired of holding him from running away,his teacher has bolted the door from inside and started reciting rhymes after convincing him finally..Suddenly he again started crying at his loudest possible...That day unfortunately our little boy Srivishnu was sitting near the door.He opened the latch and asked he new boy to go out of the classroom and he also happily obliged..His teacher had the toughest time running behind him in the corridor and catching him..The best part was the reply that Srivishnu gave when his teacher asked him why did he opened the door..It seems he said "He was constantly crying loudly which was disturbing ,we couldn't hear the rhymes properly so i helped him go out"..It seems she herself was dumbstruck at this reply  

Time spent with my childhood friend after 13 long years -Posted on 5th August 2014


5th August 2014

We were childhood friends,
Either i will be in her house or she will be in mine,
Together we have played,fought and shared many good/not so good moments,
As kids we had displayed many stage shows in our houses wherein we danced(for songs like "Kondayil thazhambu from the movie Annamalai,a tamil song though i dont remember exactly "Sundakka kalyanam" etc) and did skits just to entertain our family members and neighbors,
The number of hours we used to spend practicing for it getting scoldings from elders by involving in mischievous acts,
Then as we grew up,we became busy with our academics that we couldn't get more time to spend with each other ;
Finally me along with my family shifted to another house after remaining neighbors for fifteen long years  !!
Though we met once or twice yet we couldn't spend time together
Now when we met at a common function after 13 long years, we couldn't stop discussing about our childhood memories...Three hours perhaps was not enough!!! 
Felt happy clicking a snap though we couldn't take one with our family!!

23rd July 2014

Well indeed time has gone very fast!!! Today its 4 years since i quit Aon Hewitt..Felt nostalgic as i posted these pics in FB..What a farewell it was on 23rd June 2010!!! ..I was blessed to have worked with one of the best organisation and above all the best of best teams with cooperative teammates and friendly managers( Lekshmy Menon Ashish Garg Abirami Mohanraj , R Madhavi Latha , Srividya Saravanan , Nirmal Kumar X).These 4 years of break made me spend quality time with my little Srivishnu which wouldn't have been possible had i gone for work..Now am set to get back to work..Keeping fingers crossed as to how things will fall back in place!!!!
