Little Joys of Life

This little angel Kurinji malar(a) pappu 's bday was on Oct 28th and her mother sandanamullai (a) aachi arranged a special bday party for blogger friends on Oct 11th (Spl ppl get first preferrence u see ;)). I was so unlucky to miss the party, as I had to go for ARR's concert. Surprisingly, she called on friday and told there is another party on this saturday for pappu's school mates. It was so nice of her to reinvite me and I confirmed her that I would definitely be there for the party.

Next day after few roundings (in search of her street) @ Madipakkam, I reached her house. Initially pappu dint recognize me (as we had met only once and that too was longtime back). But within few minutes we got along nicely and split up into two teams. Pappu and myself in one team while aachi and aadhi (Her neighbour's kid) formed another team. We started creating an elephant using building blocks game. Slowly people started coming in.

I was so happy to meet varshini & venmathi (pappu's classmates - Whoever reads aachi's blog would have known known them very well as most of her posts are about pappu and her little world :))) ). Then these motherly talks started. I was surprised when aachi told, "everyday pappu will be asking her to put different types of hairstyles ( two plaits one day, just a clip another day.. ), the reason being varshini, who came with that particular hairstyle on the previous day :D She proudly said varshini is the role model for pappu :)

Varshini and pappu were in full form to roam around the house playing hide and seek, karate fighting, lifting each other etc.. Venmathi on the other hand was so reluctant to move away from her mother even when pappu and varshini called her for n no.of times. Later they decided that she will not come without her mother and directly called venmathi's mother to come with venmathi :))

There was this kid Harshith (If I remember the name correctly). He was reacting like a big man saying no for photos and girly games. He was more interested in getting updates about cricket score. Then there were few neighbour's kids. Then we had tailing the horse game and cake cutting ceremonies. After snacks session, as everyone left, venmathi was busy painting. Aachi and venmathi's mom got busy with their motherly topics. So pappu and myself were left alone and we started playing with an imaginary cat. We were running around hiding from the cat, but the cat finally got us and started biting :( So we throwed the cat via balcony gate and returned to our room. After few seconds, pappu with a sad face said "poonai azhuvudhu" (Translation for swaram - cat is crying ;)) Then we felt pity for the cat, took it back and gave it shelter :))))

Before starting aachi was giving return gifts to all kids and surprisingly she gave me one too :)) A key chain and a camel miniature :))) Enna innum kozhandhayaavae paakkara ivangala ellam nenacha.. avvvvvvvvvv... enakku azhuvaachi azhuvaachiya varudhu ;))) [Sri, I leave this translation part to U :)) I know u could do it better than me ;)]

On the whole it was a very fun-filled evening. Special thanks to aachi and pappu :)))
