Dear Bumi Matha,
I got a new cousin today. We went to see her ta the hospital, and she was REALLY tiny. She was wrapped up in a balnket, and she was turning her head from side to side. I stood on the chair and looked at her, and then I looked at my Nithi Mama.
Amma said that that the baby was Mama's baby. Amma doesn't know it, but I am Mama's baby.
When it was time to go home, I thought we were going to take the baby home with us. I creid a little bit because I wanted the baby to come home with me. But she stayed in the hospital while we went home to Puchong.
In three days, we would all know the baby as Shankarii.......welcome to the clan,Shankarii......Ehsvarhen and I will teach you all the tricks, you just grow up first.

Poiyitthu Vaa Maa....Pattharamna Poiyitthu Vaa....
"Poiyitthu Vaa Maa....Pattharamna Poiyitthu Vaa...."
And this is what I told Amma this morning when she told me she was going to work.

Another note for Sakkti Velan
Dear Sakkti Velan,
Hello,son, Amma hasn't been writing to you in a while, but I guess today is as good a day to write....
Well, you're 2 years and 8 months old, and you sing all the time, baby! You sing along with the tv, you sing along with the radio and you sing along when I sing Eshvarhen his lullabies. If I never come around to telling you, baby, please know that I AM JUST SO PROUD OF YOU! You've got the music in you, alright=). Please NEVER forget that you could sing Twinkle Twinkle Little Star completely with such clarity at this age that leaves me speecless....
Anyway, you're very busy these days with your play dough and your "house" games. You like to build a house for yourself with the cushions and bolsters, and you can keep yourself occupied that way for a really long time.
When you're not playing with the dough or playing house, you're watching TV. Your craze at this moment is the Donald Duck cartoon home and the Superman cartoon at Ammama's house. You can even tell me how the DVD player works.
Oh, did I mention you love crocodiles. It's probably because Appa watches the documentary channel with you ( I also suspect it's genetical). You also keep asking us to show you the zebra, which actually means you want to go to the zoo.
You understand all conversations in Tamil and English, to a point that Appa and I speak in Malay if we don't want you to understand the conversation.
You're crazy about your brother-- I know you don't like it when he takes your toys, but you look for him whenever he's missing.
You've also got a temper.......and we're doing all we can to check it now so it does not get out of hand.
Alright, baby, I think I've jotted down enough for now. Keep singing, baby.
Hugs Always,
Amma

A cushion called Eshvarhen
Hello Bumi Matha,
Amma caught me sitting on Eshvarhen today. I was just trying out to see if Thambi could stand my weight. He didn't cry, so I figured he must be okay......
Oh, did I mention that Amma was FURIOUS when she walked back into the hall and caught me sitting on Ehsvarhen?
I got a REALLY big scolding for that little stint....=)
