4th last day

at work, before I go off on yet another Maternity leave :)
Things that I did or happened to me today:
1. I woke up at 3am, couldn't sleep, so in turn woke up mummu made her drink water and put her back to sleep (well, super-mom that I am ;) I assumed if I was thirsty the kid must be equally parched). Couldn't sleep after that, so went about doing chores like folding clothes, arranging the wardrobe, finding odd baby clothes like few caps, some dupattas that will be useful in wrapping the baby. Completed the task and went promptly back to bed at 5 am completely exhausted.
2. Whilst waiting for a colleague to join me in our noble car-pooling exercise to reach office(I hate waiting, especially, if I have to wait for my driver, colleagues or some other people I am least bonded with) I ended up chit-chatting with 6 year old Pratishtha and answering her boundless questions amongst the many some were, Why are you late? why is the other aunty late? was Her baby crying? Is she going to go with you in your card? I don't know when my exams are but I will pass and go to std 3, Where is your daughter? has she gone to school? was she late? My bus comes quite late these days etc etc. Oh jezz, this gal talks a lot.
3. I just came to know one of the very few good looking guys Rohit Loke, has quit its his last day today. How sad !!!
4. As I entered my floor and swiped my card, I had my previous project GSM opening the door for me, and greeting me so sweetly 'a very Good morning'. Thats a complete surprise!!!(sign of a disaster)
5. I got chiku's name logged onto a new beta site for kids called thefungle.com seems to be like a cool site
6. Came back from an hour long lunch that too at the canteen (quite an achievement, but ya somedays ur just plain lucky that you have so much to talk about)
7. Got Prompt approvals for my M leave (quite surprising!!! ya somedays people have nothing else to do ;) )

Our Song

I have always wondered, if mummu would pick up english songs with equal ease the way she picks up Hindi (bollywood) songs. And believe u me she is good at it, she might NOT know the lyrics completely(forget the lyrics, she might not the words) but she definitely knows the tune and she knows the whole song ka tune...

And to my surprise She did pick up an english song...
This one is my favorite too...
The way Koshi Baby(we are just one week short of completing our 9 months journey) moves his feet and bum when Mummu and I sing this song makes me believe he loves it too...So this one is our song...Mine, Mummu's and Koshi's song...

What a Wonderful World – Louis Armstrong

I see trees of green, red roses too
I see them bloom, for me and you
And I think to myself
What a wonderful world


I see skies of blue, and clouds of whiteT
he bright blessed day, dark sacred night
And I think to myself
What a wonderful world


The colors of the rainbow, so pretty in the sky
Are also on the faces, of people going by
I see friends shaking hands, sayin', "How do you do?"They're really sayin', "I love you"


I hear babies cryin', I watch them grow
They'll learn much more, than I'll ever know
And I think to myself
What a wonderful world
Yes, I think to myself

What a wonderful world
Oh yeah
