Just incase if you were wondering where
Sangrywords has been for over a month, well then I have come back to the
blogosphere unfortunately with nothing really exciting this time to tell. My
family has been playing pass on parcel with viral flu. For over a month and boy
it has been absolutely tiring.
It’s different when you are sick and miss
your mum, but what would you when you are the mum and your little one is sick.
Little over a month back, Smera started pre-school and just like most kids, she
too fell sick with this change in her routine.
All was well when she recovered in a week,
but then duhddudy aka daddy fell sick, the little girl who was well recovering
from the flu fell ill again. And yes not to forget the mamma and then back baby
again for another 2 weeks.
While this month had been plagued with the
flu but it was just as bad as it sounds there were few highlights too:
- Smera
started her play-school and made
her first painting in school
- My
mum us visited twice this month and each time she cooked us a sumptuous
meal and some more to last a week
- We
celebrated our fifth wedding anniversary with a wonderful weekend getaway
to Hatta ( a welcome break from the hustle and bustle of the city)
- And
we got the first complaint from Smera’s school for excessive use of the
word daddy which reminded other kids of their dads and made them cry!

Aww... poor Smera! But ROFL at the last point...!!! I hope you are all in your best spirits now! :)
ReplyDelete:) Pranita .. It's true that's what really happened .. The word daddy is now officially banned at Blossom Nursery and credit goes to Smera ..
DeleteShe is much better back to her notorious self and yes we all are feeling better now .. Thank you so much for asking :)
Aww.. That last point was so adorable. Psst! Is the mummy getting a wee bit jealous? :p
ReplyDeleteOf-course I am jealous,however I must add to this - Smera is a very obedient child so just as she asked she didn't ask for daddy the next day at school instead asked for mamma and still got into trouble ... :)
DeleteHenceforth both the words are banned :)
Missed you...
ReplyDeleteLiked the last point...
Thanks Ranjana .. Feels good to be back on the blogosphere :)
DeleteOh! That must have been a tough month !
ReplyDeleteHope All is Well now.

DeleteWelcome back! Sorry to learn Mr Flu has been paying visits to your little world. You must have been thrilled by Smera's first painting and also, the leadership qualities displayed by her at school. Should we expect a post on that getaway to Hatta?
ReplyDeleteThanks Umashankar .. I have not had the opportunity as yet to visit your blog in the past month but I am surely going to be taking some time out to read every bit that I have missed :)
DeleteAwww. Hugs for all of you and especially Smera. It is such a tough thing to see our ill one sick. I am happy that she is back to her mischievous ways because that is how kids should always be naughty and happy. Much love :)
ReplyDeleteVery true di, it's been really difficult to see her unwell. Yes I agree that's how kids should be naughty and happy :)
DeleteHope Sam is doing well ..
Excessive use of the word daddy? haha! So cute. And you got complaints...that's even funnier.
ReplyDeleteWelcome back. We missed you.
Ok I will come clean .. it wasn't really a complaint just a daily update on her activities and gentle reminder to us to introduce more words to her :)
Delete:) More words? How about Mummy, mamma, ma...and all the synonyms you can thing of.
DeleteAnything apart from Mamma and Daddy :)
DeleteGlad to see you back. I was wondering what took you so long to post. Well, glad you have all the flu behind you. And what a cute reason to get a complaint for!
ReplyDeleteThanks girl .. yeah totally adorable right ?? I am going to be telling her all this when she grows up :)
DeleteBelated HAPPY ANNIVERSARY!!

ReplyDeleteI was so worried, I planned on calling up the cops :O But then I thought you were busy with Smera darling ;) :D.

Complaint for excessive use of daddy? ha ha ha.. that's really funny. and very sweet.
ReplyDeleteYes it's true Leo ...
DeleteAll is well now I hope. Yes the virus can get quite tiring, it has a way of travelling pretty meticulously through the family. Awww... on the daddy bit. She's a dear.
ReplyDeleteUnfortunately the doctor was telling me it happens all the time once kids start school and would continue till their immunity stabilises ..
DeleteAnd that duhddudy incident was super-cute, while I have to confess it made me a little J :)
