Two weeks after our Gurgaon trip and we are still reminiscing about the time spent with dear grandchildren. The summer experiment of leaving the children with grandparents, worked very well.Both sets of enthusiastic grandparents vied with each other to entertain them to the maximum. Adorable that they are, Advaith (6 and a half),Yukta (3 and a half), never missed their parents and enjoyed themselves as much as we did.Even if they did, they never expressed it , and of course their parents called every day and spoke to them . We took them to the beach, the parks, the Zoo, the Planetarium, a movie and what not.In general, all of us had a good time and then we flew to Gurgaon.We spent a good two weeks there, which were filled with other activities.Since school had still not reopened, we opted to take care of them while their parents traveled on work.
Those were awesome days! We became children once again. Swimming , tennis classes, we accompanied them everywhere.Advaith, our mobile encyclopedia, has widened our knowledge about wild life and big cats in particular. It is amazing and unbelievable that at his age he is so much into reading knowledge & informative books.He is a storehouse of knowledge indeed !His drawings and their captions speak volumes about his talent! And Yukta is not one to be left behind. She would follow her big brother's footsteps and do whatever he does.Her cute way of addressing my husband as "thaathee"or "thaaths" in some specially affectionate situations are so endearing . Yukta loves to don different hair styles ,so we would spend a lot of time on styling her hair, and she would admire herself so often in front of the mirror. The 100 % game between her and her thatha, compelled her to drink most of her milk, mornings and evenings and she believed that her tresses would grow still longer.Playing Hide & Seek, always quizzing, reciting poems, nightly discussions, everything was so enjoyable that we did n't realize when the two weeks ended and it was time for us to leave. Thank you Advaith & Yukta for bringing so much joy into our lives. Truly, these are wonderful moments to cherish !.
