First Proper Vacation

The vacation is about to end n the crocodile's festival is about to start! Last 2 months have been wonderful, different yet lonely. While I dozed off until late morning hours, enjoyed maa-ka-khaana n the pampering of siblings n their better halves; it was Mr.Phani's turn to wake up to the alarm n cook for himself! I enjoyed the poker nights while he spent them listening to devotional commentaries! While my sons started playing with kitchen set, madhu( my sis's daughter) got interested in 'hamara-ek-bodyguard'(a boyish game created by kaka n prithvi)! The boys learnt about dora, princess' n barbie while the little miss borrowed her brothers' gyaan on superman, spiderman n batman! While my kids enjoyed the company of madhu's cousins, madhu helped me buy gifts for kaka's cousin. We as elders thoroughly enjoyed the exchange of mutual interests, the friction resulting from the interactions, the innocence reflected by their actions! Quite different vacation altogether! All this fun n lazy-time is about to end! Time to buy the ticket from utopia to my heaven! Time to stretch my muscles! bracing myself to jump into action! Lots of dusting, cleaning, wiping, clearing work ahead n 18 more days of eager waiting!
Thanks one n all for making my lonely period memorable!
