Today has been a weird sort of day.All day I have been feeling queasy and uneasy and attributed it to a 10 am drinking of Diet Coke. Still things have been going bad the whole day - had a day full of meetings, my mom whose trip I have been awaiting since July said she cannot come because she has work things in India. Then I am interviewing for another position in my company and oddly they make you go through the pre-screening and interview routine again. The said HR screener, kept saying you are not qualified why dont you look at these here positions when hello, I am performing the same job currently in another project on the same client. Odd Odd, anyways hopefully she will get back to me tomorrow with some good news. The funniest thing is that one of the executives on the project asked me to apply for the position, else I had not even heard about said position.
Finally, I know its been a bad year and all, but still I just found out they didnt give me any raise despite a good rating, just a piddly bonus. Quite depressing but hey should be glad I have a job huh..Its the first time that I am in a position of earning more than my husband because of a career change he has made. Its odd- earlier I used to work because I wanted to, but sometimes the stress gets to me, and I want to take some time off, but now will it be possible without lifestyle changes?
Totally unrelated and very cute, A is now doing something very funny, this evening when we returned home I kind of sat in the car while he played with the controls, and then suddenly touched my face and said 'You Ok, Mama' - it was so cute and so touching. This is what makes motherhood worthwhile I guess after such a day.

You are 25 ! ( months old)
Dearest baby A, boogoo mouse and other cute petnames,
You turned 25 months old on Aug 4th, 2008.You are getting cuter everyday, if thats even possible. You stay the strangest things - like my fingers are hurting, and want me to kiss the boo-boos to make them better.You talk a lot - sentences lik I am gonna make you a hotdog, I like pasta, mmm, I am gonna make your noodles cold for you to heat etc etc.. You love to play with water still.
On a recent San Diego trip, you had so much fun at the fountains at Balboa Park and inspired by this your Masi gave you a water slide/yard thingy.You now love playing in it on weekends.
You wait for your Baba to come from office so you can water the plants with him, play outside on the swing, jump and bounce.You are watching a lot of gymnastics on TV (thanks Beijing Olympics) and want us to make you jump that way :).. easy for you, bad for our backs!You finally got your canines - it was a painful ordeal coupled with the fact that you also came down with a viral fever around the same time and lost some more weight!
On an continuing to embarass mom note, the other day when I arrived to pick you at your daycare, and bend down, you yelled Panty for all to hear.Thankfully only 2 teachers(the young intern kinds) and another kid were left behind to hear it.We now really need to watch our language in front of you. Your other fav slang is Wow and Whoa(thanx Backyardigans!).
Finally, you sure do love your Elmo,you can sing most parts of 'Nani teri morni(old Indian kids song), and you have a penchant for khatta meetha(sweet and sour) foods and are trying to give us more hugs and kisses and even trying to say I love you Mama once !
Be well, my baby boy(for me you will always be the baby)
