Bye bye

I am off to Kerala tonight with the entire gang. So after a long long time, we will be spending Good Friday and Easter in Kerala. I had to change my plan a bit though; owing to a staff crunch at work I was asked to cancel my week-long leave and return earlier. So instead of the 19th, I will take the train along with V on the 12th. One way it is good - it will make us grieve in unison for the kids whom we are planning to leave behind in Changanachery. Shared grief is easier to handle than ones done separately.
Before I leave today, we will be meeting Ash's teacher as it is an Open Day for the kindergarten students. Ash was all excited yesterday as the teacher gave him a box of jumbo crayons, a teddy bear card made for "Dad & Mum" and toffees, which he gobbled the moment he saw his dad arriving to pick him up. Toffees remain on the taboo list as far as V is concerned.

don't worry about the kids. even if they don't like it now, they may cherish these summers with grandparents later.
