Birthday Cards

We had given Shalom a handcrafted birthday card last year. This time, both the older kids were determined to make me birthday cards on my birthday couple of days back.

Below are the scanned copies of the cards . . .

Dosa Plaza, Ranchi

Last weekend, we had lunch from Dosa Plaza, Ranchi. 

That was first time, the kids saw a 'rocket dosa'. 

Shalom and Charis put that into paper as soon as they came home . . .

Charis' Paintings

Putting Shalom's paintings on the blog was quite an incentive for Charis also to be artistic. 

2 paintings from Charis . . .

Tortoise

The Cobra

And below are 2 drawings by Shalom . . .

Child art . . . Perceptions or Innocense

Few days back, I came back home and saw a painting Shalom, our six year old son had painted and stuck to one of the cupboards at home. Later, Angel explained that he's drawn our family as a family of ducks.


You can see me, leading the pack.

Then, there is a very female duckling, most probably representing Chesed, the youngest one.

Following that is Angel, who is obviously the largest in the family.

After that there is a male duckling, which is of course, Shalom.

And the last is another female duckling, which is a bit bigger than the other female duckling, which should mean Charis.

I wonder if the painting is only an expression of art from my little boy or is it a complex representation of what he perceives about the family ! ! !

Thiruvananthapuram Rajadhani

Today morning, we just reached Kerala after 2 full days in the Trivandrum Rajdhani. 

A Rajdhani journey which I would rate quite poor comparing to my other Rajdhani journeys, I got some good snaps . . .

Drawing and painting . . . the major way for our kids to while off the time. 

Charis was so intensely immersed that she fell asleep

Waiting for a crossing . . .

Going into a tunnel . . . 

While the older two watches cartoon, Angel tries to persuade Chesed into drawing and painting . . .

Look carefully, you can see Chesed . . .
