Achyut Birthday – 22 Sep 09

We had a quiet celebration of Achyut’s 2nd birthday at home. Ranju baked a cake. Achyut blew his 2 candles to celebrate his birthday.

We also finalized the hall where his actual celebrations will be held – on 26 Sep 09 .The place is quite close to our home here, in very peaceful surroundings. There is a school nearby. Waiting for Ranju to get the keys of the hall, I sat and watched as the school got over and the mothers came to pick up their children from school. Could have easily been a scene from an Indian school. But the atmosphere was different – it was so quiet and virtually a meditative atmosphere. There was hardly any chit chatting and boisterous noises made by the children – something with which we are very familiar in India.
