I am so bad with updates these days. It's gotten soo sooo hectic :( i definitely missed out on atleast some of the cute stuff the boys did :(
End of march, i had to travel to wisconsin for a training. It was 4 days..i returned on my bday and the boys were waiting with B at the airport with Ipad 3 as my gift :) They surely missed me. Ajay said that Appa was almost good but not 100% good to him and also said i should never leave the house without him ever again..but the next day he was mad at me for not giving him a chocolate and asked me to goto texas or some far away place and realized i might go and said..but come back the same night. lol.
Ashu's report card came and he's gotten to level 6 at writing. something i am proud of because he started with 5 and went down to 4 because he started getting bored with writing and then i didnt say anything , but i think as the saying goes silence is golden. he put extra efforts and got it back to 6. Here the level means the grade level for writing (Creativity, how they group the information, etc..) He got straight As on the others and everything was close to 100 (98 or 99) and that's another thing i was happy about because i know Ashu's good with concepts, but makes careless mistakes and never checks back on the answers..so 99 on math is really great stuff :)
He is in level E at Kumon too. We started Kumon very late. all his friends were already in E and he was worried that he won't get G by 5, but now i think he's happy that he moved to E so quickly :)
AJ's school had international festival and he took part in a dance and also sang two lines with me. he was sucha sport and agreed to wear kurta even though he hates it. I said we are representing India and he agreed without a fuss :) but ofcourse he was dancing stiff because of the kurta. It was kinda funny but cute :)
Both Aj and Ashu won a gift at the geobee station and were happy. They were allowed to participate only once. Aj got dhoop sticks from the bag he picked for his gift selection and Ashu a cute Pillayar. We had a great time too with our friends.
I was glad they did it on a weekend this time as Ashu got to enjoy all this too.
B went to india for a week and AJ cried so much when he left. He was mad at him for not taking him to Chennai.. I took the boys to bruster's to cheer them up and they were little better after that. Ofcourse me and aj got the crappiest of the flavours and threw it and attacked Ashu's icecream ;-) After B reached chennai, the first thing AJ told B was to get him Safari chocolate bars :D
Ashu won a lego box for winning a "How well do you know your flags" contest at his aftercare. He was so happy and then next day he comes to complaining that AJ opened it without his permission. I told AJ he shouldn't have done that since Ashu worked on it so hard and AJ innocently said "But, i thought he won it for me" LOL
Taping up the 39 clues cards :
I got a book each for Ashu and AJ and AJ's school book fair. I got 39 clues for ashu and it had some trading cards in a pouch attached to the book.
Ashu was mad because AJ had put ton of tape around that pouch making it impossible to open it and get the cards out. AJ said "I made sure they are safe for you ashu" and Ashu didnt know whether to laugh or cry!! :)
