A Rainy Day

The day was filled with windswept rain today. All day long...
Pranita sent me a picture of a lovely saree - I loved it - but being me I needed validation from every one else - on the price, the value, my real need for it.
My overly generous Rutha was willing to "fund" it - she said Mom if you liked it I'll fund it! My naive Rohun couldn't count the currency but handed me 4 notes - which totaled 23 dollars & said here you go. He also wanted to make sure that after I get the saree I will return his money back!!

I took him to the Pier1 Imports Store. He loved it!! There were so many beautiful things that caught his attention - he wanted me to close my eyes & follow him to one object after another that caught his attention! It was like taking a bull to a china shop - wait a sec - despite my repeated warnings to him to watch out he might break something - I was the one who dropped an ornamental frog! Rohun was disappointed that I was not picking up the things that he liked. He wanted me to get a mug shaped in a cow-hide pattern with a pink udder for its base. He said mama this is so beautiful please buy it - please buy it for you - please let Me buy it for you - for mother's day - please mama! $8. I rested my case! Will have Pramod pick it up for him one of these days.

The other day he said to me - mama you have a "love belly" just like Daddy says I have love handles!! I'm so thankful for my children!!

I walked today watching Filmfare awards.
