It started with Sunil's birthday on Friday the 13th. He was out of town for work and came back in the evening. As soon as that garage door opened Saloni and I rushed to say "Hapeeeeee Birthdayyyy!" Sohan was fast asleep but woke up later with a big smile on his face. Saloni made this really neat clay hand print in school with a decorated card. She loved gushing about how she made it "just for my Pappa".
Saturday we went to the zoo on a whim and had a great time. I do admit that it was quite muggy and sticky, but seeing some pretty incredible birds and animals made up for the heat. And we became kids again by hopping onto the Merry-Go-Round twice - at Saloni's request. We were there for a few hours and just after we left the parking lot, Saloni and Sohan were fast asleep in the car! (We wished we were napping too.)
On Sunday, Father's Day, I cooked a full Gujarati dinner and invited Sunil's parents to feast with us. It was great seeing three generations of Joshi boys together and let me just say that Sohan shares his good looks with Grandpa! We then went to the Hindu Temple to bless our little guy who turned a month old on the 13th. A month old already? Yeah, it's great. Here's to watching him grow and explore and love life.
