My 18-month Moods

July 24, 2010


It's been a really interesting month! I started off July with loads of hair and then suddenly one day, when I thought I was having so much fun with amma/appa, some dude tried to shave my head. I cried soo much and begged amma/appa to just take me home, and when the dude finished, I cried in relief "DONE". I recall being confused when I saw myself in the mirror later that day - "yengai?" (where is [my hair]?).

Combined with this was a move to Chennai - now I hang with my grandpa/grandma all the time. They are so often, and I get my way most of the time. Amma started travelling for work - traumatic for me, I miss cuddling with her at nights. I wait eagerly for amma/appa to return on Thursday & Friday and I cling to them all weekend. They take me "tata" [outside] in the "caaa" [car], give me lots of fun "mummum" [food], meet other "paappaa" [kids]. When I go out, I get to see "moomoo" [cow], "maaee" [=meow=cat], "sssss" [bus], and "aaaatum" [auto]. I have also learned many manners - I say "ssss" [please] when I want something, and loads of "thunkoo" [thank you]. It's harder for me to say sorry, so I just say it in sign language.
All in all, good life. I am now looking forward to my hair growing back!
