मेरी खुशियों का सागर!

 प्रिय  नीर  तुम अब दिसंबर में 4 साल के हो जाओगे. पिछले  6 महीनों  से तुम स्कूल जा रहे हो and i found that you have learnt lot of things in last 6 months. When we put you in school in April, your speech was limited but now you are speaking complete sentence. You have started your on stories although they are not very clear to us. Still you try to dictate the stories to your mamma. I found that a lot of things are going on in your imagination and in every story you have Arnab as a bad guy and you portrait yourself as a good guy. अभी तुम्हे ' दूसरे ' शब्द का इस्तेमाल नहीं आता तो तुम 'अलग type ' कह कर बताते हो. जैसे maine तुमसे पूछा -नीर तुम्हे स्कूल में सू सू कौन  करता है? पल्लवी madam ? Tumne जवाब दिया - नहीं , अलग type  की मैडम.

 Dearest Neer We visited dehradun in August month on Rakshabandhan. My car had completed one year and its second service was due. I took you to the service centre in the morning thinking of your interest in mechanical things and cars. You were not bored there but service took quite long. There was one girl who was taking care of customers. She talked with you, pampered you and offered you laddu and banana. She found your eye lid hair on your cheek. She asked you to wish something. Initially you couldn’t understand what it meant? She explained so you put your wish straight forward. Your answer was quite practical. You wished for chips. Then she got you two packet of chips.

 Dearest Neer, You were about to turn 3 years when I purchased one notebook for you. There was car on the front cover... You said- papa, McQueen... I could not understand. You repeated. I searched it on internet and found that it is a famous cartoon car. I and Neha both were surprised and proud of you.

 Dearest Neer, Now you have crossed 3 and half years of age but it's my 4th post only. I believe your mom has written more letters to you till now...Some I have read but some I may not have read... I don't know...Probably she will share it with you me later. April is the month when schools open. But my childhood has been quite different than yours. In village, till my 12th standard, schools opened 1st july only. But now trend may have changed in villages also. The second conspicuous difference is the entry age... I entered the school after completing 5 years of age. This was normal. But as we, as a country, are progressing, I find everyone is in hurry. सब इतनी जल्दवाजी में हैं कि कोई नही चाहता कि उनका बच्चा किसी से पीछे राह जाए। लेकिन सच्चाई यही है कि क्लास सब 1st कभी नही आएंगे। इसलिए, रैंकिंग ठीक है but पढ़ाई का एकमात्र लक्ष्य और सत्य नही।  इंटरनेट की दुनिया ने सभी को इतना बेचैन कर दिया है कि सब्र नही। पिछले 10 सालों में edtech companies की ऐसी बाढ़ आई है कि हर किसी के अपने वाद...

 Dearest Neer, आज हम हरिद्वार से घर बापिस आये। 18 को होली खेलने के बाद, 19 की सुबह को हम हरिद्वार को निकले। प्लान के according सुबह 8 बजे हम जैतरा पहुँच चुके थे। फीना से तुम, मम्मी और अम्मा थे और जैतरा से 7 सदस्य। प्रखर, सूर्या, अंश, मानु, रचना बुआ, फूफा जी, शुभांगी बुआ और सूर्या की अम्माजी। 2 कार से हम लोग हरिद्वार दोपहर पहुँचे। शांतिकुंज पहुँचे। हमे वहां पर ठहरने की व्यवस्था करने में अच्छा खासा वक़्त लगा। हमे उम्मीद थी कि अच्छे रूम्स मिलेंगे लेकिन but it was not as per my or Neha's expectations. Although it may be a good from other perspective. Anyways, we had to adjust for a night.  Before reaching haridwar, we took a halt at a restaurent- punjabi khaira. We all took the snacks like burger, sandwich, coldrink and icecream. But when we reached shanti kunj and could settle down ourselves in more than an hour and found no fool available at 3 PM, I realised that the restaurant halt was the best part of the journey. Otherwise, it could have turned out a cheerful journey because w...

 आज होली है। तुम सुबह 7 बजे उठ गए आज। काल शाम market से रंग और पिचकारी खरीद कर लाये। पिचकारी आते ही तुमने पिचकारी में पानी भर कर खेलना शुरू कर दिया। सब के ऊपर पिचकारी से पानी डाला। सारा फर्श गीला कर दिया। आज भी उठते ही तुम्हारा होली खेलने का excitement खूब था। सुबह सुबह मंदिर के बाहर से राम डोल समिति की होली रैली निकलनी थी, तो ढोल बज रहे थे। loud speaker पर गाने बज रहे थे और इन सब की आवाज ने तुम्हे और मुझे 7 बजे उठने पर मजबूर कर दिया। मोहल्ले के बच्चे हमारे घर के बाहर 7 बजे से ही होली खेल रहे थे। तुमने भी काफी जिद की बाहर जाने की। लेकिन मैंने नही जाने दिया क्योंकि अभी तुम ज्यादा छोटे हो। वर्ना वे सब तुम्हे रंग सकते हैं। किसी तरह से तुम्हे 8 बजे तक रोक के रख लेकिन तुम्हारी जिद के आगे सब fail। तुम्हे छत पर ले कर होली खेलना start किया। फिर मोहल्ले के सारे बच्चे छत पर इकट्ठा हुए और तुमने बहुत होली खेली। पिचकारी की उपयोगिता थोड़ी ही देर में समाप्त हो गयी जब तुमने पाइप और मग से ही होली खेलना एक बेहरत option समझा। 11 बजे तक तुम पानी मे भीगते रहे और तुम्हे ठंड लगने लगी थी। कांप रहे थे तुम। ...

 Neer, today I am going to start this blog. I was thinking since so long but I have been so lazy to give it a start. Anyways, in life it's never late. Now you have already crossed 3 years mark of your age and day by day you are learning new words. People say you started speaking late but what's the hurry! Anyway, now you are learning words at faster pace. And to our (me and mumma) surprise, you are learning english words also quite good. Well done! Thanks to you tube and your choice of content...Blippi, Masa and the bear, Nikki & Vlad, sam uncle & fire truck... Today, when I came from office I found you at the gate, to my surprise. Generally you were sleeping in the evening but today you welcomed me. There was a conspicuous change in your clothes as winters are almost gone and today is the first day of the summers 2022. You wearing T and shorts are the sign of summers really had knocked at the door! Otherwise, your mumma would never allow you to show up in shorts & ...
