Dear Advitha,
You turned four. So many changes, so many challenges but you have grown up as a big girl. You understand everything; you communicate clearly-change at ease with English and Tamil; love your school; grown up to be naughty; started doing things on your own; love to get dressed up----in total are a lil-big, fun-loving girl
The first half of the year was really challenging---it just went on like:
Me: Advitha put the dress, fast
You: No mamma, I don’t want to put this dress, its not nice (saying u select some weirdo dress)
You did wontedly and unwontedly the exactly opposite of what I want you to do. Then I’ll not speak with you for some time, and then you’ll come saying sorry…so the first half was filled with these episodes…
But what happened during the second half. Either you have grown up or I have started behaving matured-ly with you that I realized we both are sharing so much with each other. You update me with your school stories, school friends, complaints about paati…it’s never got so good before.
Then your travel passion, you were our best travel buddy whether it is the recent wayanad, or cruise or the n-number of Chennai trips.
As your father say, you are just a highly sensitive lady-if we coax you we are the winners, but if we raise our hand or voice, God save us for the rest of the day…
In a year’s time you’ve become an expert in coloring and you are slowly improving your drawing skills as well
Then the important one, I am just amazed by your memory power kiddo!!!How much you remember things!! Like the other day you related indira nagar with your pappa’s office. When asked how? You were ready to answer: “mumma! You remember papa showed us his office when went to Bhuvan’s birthday). And Bhuvan birthday happened atleast five months back…Phew!!!too much!lil lady
You are still an introvert!! Why can’t you say Hi and Bye to people? The more I force you, the more you don’t want to do!!So do it at your own pace!!
You are such a channelized (can read ‘lazy’ as well) kid: you want me get involved with you: be it play dough, kitchen set, reading books, or homework…I need to be a part of it…
How can I forget the amount of importance you give to yourself…One Sunday! I pulled you from the sofa when you went hiding to avoid drinking milk, I certainly pulled you with lil vigor but it was not so bad. For a lil strain, God! How much you cried! You kept your hand so carefully, did not put it down, that we got tensed and took you to a hospital for an X-Ray that was clean and clear…Phew!!Very high maintenance.
But how much you understand the travails of a working mother.While i am loaded with guilt for not spending enough time with you, you have clearly understood the fact of me working. Never I have seen you crying while leaving to office or never i have seen you not welcoming me with a smiling face while i am back..it means a lot to me dear gal!!
All said and done, you are growing up to be my best friend, though you adore and love your papa, you are certainly a mummy’s girl.i can see that in you. its such a great feeling Adhu to get loved so much…Not to forget, your growing love for your bama paati…
Have a great time dear, be happy and healthy my lovely lil baby …
Luv you
Amma
