Love Note

Hubby and I were watching TV yesterday, while H1 was watching a Barny CD on the computer. All of a sudden she came running to us, gave Hubbya little note (an old supermarket receipt), gave him a hug, and said "I love you Thaathi". Then she did the same to me.

She had scribbled on the receipt with a pen. So I asked, "What's this darling?".

H1 pointed to one side of the receipt and said, "It says 'I love you Ammi'".

Then she pointed to the other side and said, "This is 'I love you Thaathi'".

"I can write now! And I did it all (by) my self!!", she added.

It's moments like this that makes the hard job of parenting all worthwhile, don't you think?
