Pattu thangam
You are going to be 6 years old in a month and how many moments of pride you have given us already! The youngest in class and yet a couple of years ahead in Reading and comprehension. Tiniest in class but 2nd price in skipping. Special award for 'original' poetry writing and the poem being read out in the school assembly! Swimming in the big swimming pool with those tiny little hands and legs! Playing notes on the piano that amma cannot manage to!
But none of the above beat the below
- You never ever choose between me and appa.. no matter how many times we ask you, you always say you love both of us equally :)
- You love to hug and kiss me and appa. Any time of the day.
- You cannot stay sad or cross for more than 5 minutes. The twinkle in your eyes and the sunshiny smile is always around the corner - no matter what!
- I call you a 'Born Barrister'. You can very logically argue and turn any negotiation to your favour. I know you want to be a GP during the weekday and a 'face paint lady' (!) in the weekends.. but I see you having a natural flair to be a barrister!
-You love holding hands, sitting on my lap and generally cuddling. I love the times we cuddle together and read a book or watch the telly
- I once told you 'never to scream'. That evening you had your 'Stage coach' performance of Charlie and the chocolate factory. You had to scream along with some of the others on stage. I loved the way you were the only one looking straight into the audience at me, with your big , chocolatey eyes and refusing to scream :). I love you sweetheart for listening to me so diligently :)
-I keep telling you ' be kind to others' and you said ' Amma don't just say be kind, tell me what to say to be kind! What is kind to me is not kind to you :)'
-I love that no matter how much you love your chocolates you never eat them without offering amma and appa a share
- No matter how much you love eating something, you are able to say - I have had a bit, I do not want any more. (The only thing that you can never have enough is playing tag!)
Of course you also have trouble waiting till somebody completes their sentence before voicing your opinion, you still spill your food, you are the fussiest eater I know, your handwriting is horrendous and you still get your way with appa by shamelessly using tears... but with all the good and the bad and everything in between there is nobody else and nothing else that has made me this happy, content and absolutely at peace.
Love you to infinity and back thangame!
Hugs always
Amma
