Appacha,Ammachi we miss you...

Achachan and Mummy left for India on Saturday. We all miss them terribly. Sean and Rhea miss them tremendously both in their own way.

Rhea would not drink milk at all..i guess it is her way of showing how she misses them both. I would sing her ammachi's favorite song 'Kannum Pootti Uranguga Neeyen' and she doses off in no time. Saturday and Sunday she hardly drank any milk during the day...just about an ounce or two every feed till afternoon. She did eat the carrots i fed her. She woke up 2-3 times in the night. I guess she was catching up on her calorie deficit from morning. Usually she wakes up only once. Hopefully she will soon settle into a routine soon since Dada's Appacha and Ammachi are here to take care of her. Paavam smiley/chirikudukka..I'm sure she is wondering whats going on. She is letting us know in her own unique way that she is missing all the love and attention of Appacha and Ammachi!!! I'm sure she would love to share her sly smile that she used to have only for them and thinks about them quite often in her thoughts...I caught her with that smile as soon as I laid her in her bassinett for her nap today afternoon.

Sean on the other hand has been very vocal about expressing how much he is missing them both. Since there was lot of plane trouble for Achachan and Mummy about which we spoke to Sean, he kept saying 'The big plane has some problem. Dada, Mamma, we have to go to the airport to pick Appacha and Ammachi!' Also whenever we see an airplane landing or take off he'll say 'Is Ammachi/Appacha in that plane?' We told him today that Appacha and Ammachi have reached India and his response was 'They are far away mamma'. He has been a little more clingy to me than usual. He starts school so that is a good distraction for him. He is also beginning to have fun with Daddy and Mummy.

I cant wait for our next trip back home so that all of us can be together again. It was such a wonderful six months and I really wish we were closer to home!

Appacha, Ammachi we miss you!!! Come back and visit us soon!!!
