expectations

Today, actually yesterday, was a good day! I went to Beeby Ka Mukhbarra (mini taj mahal) that's a rickshaw ride away from the church with Vaibhav, Hursha, and Kshitija. We went in the morning while Jeevan and Vipul were at school :). Afterwards we sat at a shop nearby and had some soda and snacks while laughing at a guy that had movie producer posters up in the shop and was wearing all white with a huge mullet. Wish i would've taken a picture!

Came back for another wonderful meal, i think Aunt Jyotsna is in the kitchen almost all day hard at work. I read my book while the others took naps, Uncle Baru and I played carom somewhere in there too. After the kids got back from school , Vaibhav, Hursha, Kshitija, and I took them to Cididad Gardens (the zoo). It got dark pretty quick but we still had fun. Enjoyed some ice cream afterwards.

Later that evening we celebrated Apictcha's birthday. She's the daughter of the grounds keepers. They have 2 sons also. Her name means expectations, they had already had 2 sons and were expecting a daughter, it turned out to be a girl so she met their expectations and was named after that. She turned 10.

That's all for today! Vinay Kaka gets back from his pastors meeting tomorrow, he's been gone for a few days. So after that we might have some day trips planned.

Oh, and i'm uploading more pictures now, so be sure to check those out!
