Already missing out

I’ve been at work just a week and already I'm missing out on some important stuff in the kids life

A’s ear piercing. The hubby andAjji took A today morning to the jewellers and got her ears pierced. They said she was very quiet and didn’t make a fuss at all. She cried a bit after the first ear but didn’t fuss to have the second ear pierced and sat on the stool by herself. Very different from S who started screaming when they put a black marker on her ears to mark the spot for the ears to be pierced. Shucks I missed this, but she was in safe hands and probably would have kicked up more of a fuss if i had been there

S’s haircut. Alright it was just a trim, but they washed and blew dry the hair and made it straight so she must have been delighted. She loves brushing her hair straight so much, I keep on telling her that curly hair looks lovely but unfortunately all the princesses she idolises have straight hair! Everyone in the family functions fawned over the girls curly hair so am hoping this makes them happier with their lovely curly locks

S sporting activities – according to the hubby S is learning to play cricket and has started batting well under the able guidance of her cousins whom she absolutely adores. She already does front flips on the trampoline which she says her cousin Y taught her. They went bowling as well last night, but that was not so much of a success since the bolwing alley did not have an option of keeping the gutters up and am sure S balls kept going into the gutter

S X ray- i had planned to take S to a paediatrician on our India visit since i wsn’t too happy with the doctors treatment here. Am sure they are excellent but they are not very communicative and I am not sure what to expect in terms of S recovery. So the hubby took S to a leading orthopaedic paediatrician in Bangalore and they did an X ray and said the leg is fully healed now. I wish i could have been there to ask more questions, but cant do it all

I guess this is how its going to be going forward. I won't be able to be there for everything in the girls life like i have been for the last 2 and a ½ years but I hope to make it for all the important stuff or at least enure one loving close relative does. Love you girls, miss you!
