summer is biding farewell....

Image
Oh my warm and sweaty days are over...yes i am complaining... "I don't like anything wet and cold"... :) School's reopening, my sparkle will start his nursery... wow, i am so excited. Maple is promoted to Class 2. She is also looking forward to new class and new teachers. Unfortunately their summer vacation went off too fast for any relaxing holidays away from home. Busy parents were away most of time at office or at the construction site. Our new home is coming put well, we are so happy that thing are nearing completion. God is great... he has always cared for us. Thank you Jesus

Summer vacation...

Image
House work in full swing, kids at home idle. Mama and dada working at office and home and at the our old house construction site, oh this is very much our life now. So it was like a cool breeze in this hot summer when our library decided to  host a summer camp for a week. They teach our kids, origami, quilling, paper flowers, movie show etc... Kids enjoying to the fullest, while mama can keep a watch over them at the work. I am so waiting for the weekend to bake or make something for my little ones and unwind myself. There are lot of mangoes in the fridge waiting to be eating or to be drunk or to be licked...yummy

slow and steady...

Image
These days there is too much in mind... hence am not able to orderly put them down in words. There is house construction: wood selection, designs finalization, color selection, tiles selection oh the list is endless, kids playing at home all day without proper direction, many small project getting down slowly...very slowly, many recipes in mind to be tried out, an important workshop coming up at work place. Is it too much? I don't know, thing are getting done though, but very slowly. And it irritates as nothing is getting completed and every where you look thing half done. or still in planning phase.

Simple beauties!

Being at home feels so calming and peaceful. I took a leave from my work on Friday and had a long weekend to do some cleaning before Easter. It feels so good

smiles... i love them

After a long time

Image
I don't even know if I can type, or think about writing something. January is almost over, but my routine hasn't changed a bit-- office home, office home, then on Sunday- church. We have a house being renovated majorly also! And in all this if I manage some time, its for baking a cake or cooking. And above all admiring my little cuties. However busy January may be, we enjoy it to the core, with our wedding anniversary, maple's birthday, my parents wedding anniversary and then my office folk event. I am still in all my colors of sanity. naughty fairies hairstyle folk festival 2015 at Goa India Organized by Dept of Art & Culture

A blessed Christmas a very happy new year

This is the most busiest time in all houses and my house is no exception. Only difference is that, I neglected my blog! :( An event that I wanted to record in my blog was the 1st accident on the new year... My mixer splashed my coconut gravy base all round my kitchen walls, counter, fridge etc etc.. my 1st day in New year started with deep cleaning my kitchen  Nevertheless.... Keeping the new year spirit on, we are having a family get together tonight. Fun!!! This beuitful image is from http://www.freeprettythingsforyou.com, I have so many of the printable from this site for Christmas decor. The images are so cute!

Muaaah...!!!

In my home.

A wedding gift given by our neighbor. It copper and so beautiful. My utility basket traveled into my new temporary house And sparkle's toys This is my favorite place, oh how I miss my sunshine window...! Our house is being renovated. We have been staying at my mom's house. They have a portion of their house which was not being used. So now its fully occupied by us and is extensively used by my little ones.  I am so blessed that my parents stay so close to me and now we are in the same house (we are on the 1st floor and they on ground). And our kids just have to simply run down the stairs to be with their omma and papa.(grandma and Grandpa).

Is 2+2=4? or is it ...

Image
When I was little girl,  2+2 was always equal to 4.. But now with life's meaning being viewed  differently by people of different ages, different era, and speacilly by people who want to be ever greens- belong to all times; the sum is not 4... it is like it could be 1+1+2 or why don't u try 2+1+1, or even better 0+4... I am just fed up. When is school, we study , the harder we study , the better the marks. You ask for something from ur parents, you either get it or not. There weren't many options. That's how we learn to take decision. but when you have options open, there is always compromising. In today's world, all of us are only here to compromise. But i want to see my kids in a place where they work to get want they really want and not compromise on anything for want theye are working for. I see only way to achieve this is by setting examples as parents, take decision, show them or highlight that, since we are human, the decision we take, may not be corr

Oh me!

I have fractured my elbow. I don't want to see my pic with a fractured left side. So i won't just allow anyone to click it. My sweet Little daughter still managed to get a click... though a little blur, its good for a digital memory.  I pray for patience now. My hubby dear is so very caring and is in full control. I am so lucky to have him.

Easy breakfast is here.

Image
Sev (thin noodle) upma, with a dash of lime.. yum.. The lime and coriander gives it such freshness and peanuts, the crunchy texture. The best part is, its so quick. Red plate is my hubby's, he likes it like that, and mine is more crunchier  with all that chevda over it. And yes, it was all eagerly eaten my babies too!

Don't count the candles!

Image
The number is wrong! ;) Isn't the cake just yummmmmm... We were all sad that it was over so soon. See the chocolate that ran down the plate was already licked by my babies. I became a year older on 19th.. And had the most lazing around birthday, literally doing nothing!

You have the right... you are the potter of our life..but why this pain?

Image
They humbled themselves to your plans for them. They knew that you do the best for them. They trusted  you completely, walk through your ways. Then why this pain, this loneliness, this unbearable grief. You did not  give them what you gave all the happy and blessed couple! you left them fruitless, They survived, they took care of hundreds of other precious gifts and yield fruits. They cared for the poor and the sick. They why god? He is left alone with no one to care for him no one to be called as family. I just don't get it God. Why did you call his beloved away from him? He required her, to fight with this world. He required her for his life I know you do everything for a purpose, Please let him see the purpose and let him have peace. Please don't leave him like that. Please console him Jesus.
