3 guys in our cab get talking over the new rupee symbol.
1st dude: In all the shops, they have the new rupee symbol now.
2nd dude: ya, but it is not so good.
1st dude: yeah, wonder why they couldn't get a better symbol.
2nd dude: hmm, it would have been better without the dash at the top.
3rd dude: it is based on the hindi alphabet.
1st dude: I think it is the same in Sanskrit also.
2nd dude: Is it?? Even in Sanskrit, there is a dash at the top?
Me: (wow!!)

There is treasure everywhere!
The kid turned 4 today!!!
He now goes to school, 2nd year Montessori to be precise.
Talks about what he and his friends did at school and in the school bus, which usually involves screaming at the top of their voice and driving the aaya mad!
He also wants the driver to switch on the indicator while turning, and sulks when he doesn't!
Knows most of the car models and recognizes many of them too! Boys!!! I tell you!
He also doesn't agree with his dad's decision to buy a Tata Safari. He wants a For Fiesta. Yes, according to him, its For not Ford! :-D
While traveling, he loves going through an underpass, and has a wide smile plastered on his face, when his dad actually goes through one!!
From school, he sometimes brings back some small smooth pebbles, stones etc and proudly shows them to his grandparents!! :-) Quite like what I used to do in school!!
He tries to pinch or squeeze his younger bro's hands when he thinks he (the younger one, that is) is getting more attention! At the same time, loves him too.
Fusses about the dress he wears to school and fights with his grandmom when she forces him to wear shorts!
Treats the granddad like his friend and fights with him!
Throws tantrums like a typical 4 yr old boy does...and gets scolded too.
Loves eating noodle soup and sweet corn and waits on his mom diligently everyday for it. Sometimes, even asks in a very small sweet voice 'amma, ivatthu noodle soup maaDthya?' Sigh! who can say no to that!! :-D
Absolutely loves going out on his bicycle, with the support wheels attached, with his dad. It doesn't matter if his dad comes home at 10.00 in the night, a small round on his cycle is a must! He has now progressed to a cycle without the balancing wheels too!
Wow! Time sure flies. Happy birthday Kiddo! Love you!
