First Friend
19th sep 2010
We had the gracious presence of lord Ganesha and godess Gauri at our humble abode this year. The preps took sometime, esp since we cud do it mostly on weekends. The house was spic and span and we were all set to host this divine combination. We hosted the customory feast at our place, which unfortunately i cud not be a part of. However, later i got to know abt it and eat about it 
. What was the high point in the day, was Arjun’s and his antics. We had invitd one of his friends – Preetha, who is all of 8 years old, for lunch. There were a lot of other invitees, however Arjun gleefully escorted only her from the door. He indicated to everyone that she is his friend. While the lunch was served, he chose to give her company all through. He, all of 14months, took great care to sit next to her till she finished her lunch, and that did take a lot of time. He then happily waited for her to join her in the play area. Its amazing how at this tender age friendship builds roots, across gender and across a huge age gap…its only with age does one lose this skill…
