was a pal's kid's 10th bday party... at a fine Indian restaurant.

suddenly i am rediscovering my love for saris... used to collect them like each one was a treasure...

hunt n hunt n hunt... for THE perfect sari.
n drag my Sis up and down 20 stores... back home... each single time...!

so i pulled out one of my all time fave's that i got at Diwali some 15 yrs back.... from mahaveers... a brilliant copper sulfate blue sari with hand painted swirls along the borders... in a splash of bright colors. that is so typical of my taste!

Ryan saw me all dressed n goes...
'Why you wearing India?'

thatz how much my kids know about the sari.... E

note to self... wear more India... EEE!

at the beach... Ryan wants to feed his bacon cheeseburger to the sea gulls... rather than relish it himself.

do i have a choice... after he has kicked 'sand' on to the open 'which'?!

break it up in pieces and let him fling it.
his pudgy hands can't fling the light pieces far... and the greedy gulls are hesitant to come anywhere close to pissed off Mommy!

a couple venture close enuff... to grab a bite ..

Ryan goes.... 'That's my boy! you got it.... !'
----------------------------

Ryan comes up to me looking really worried...

Mommy... akka says .... whatz that word?....*wrinkling up his face... racking his brains* ... canceling my birthday.

Took the brat along... to a salon visit.

Was in the dreaded chair... getting my eyebrows landscaped.
Inadvertent tears arrive... at the sharp stinging pain of the thread rippin thru fine hairs on tender skin...

Ryan is as always running about...like hez jet powered. He stops long enough to curiously check out the scene.

The lady: Look kid... your Mom is crying.
Ryan: *nonchalantly* Everyone cries at sometime or other.
Me: *lolol*
