birthday 2023

After a long time I am posting a new blog on my elder son. We celebrated his 11th birthday last Sunday. Unlike the usual celebrations where he had roomful of friends, even last year he enjoyed his birthday with a great group of friends, this year he had 4 friends who came and made the day memorable for us. I believe that the kids can adapt to changes more quickly compared to us adults. I and my husband were missing the previous years' birthdays where we celebrated with so many people but Avyaya even though missed his old friends he enjoyed so much with his new besties this year. Sometimes kids do teach us a lot without even knowing. Now that he is in grade 6, academically the pressure is a bit more and so is his cribbing about studies. But I am happy that no matter how much he dislike studying but he does give his best and make us feel proud.
