Amritsar-Birmingham-Toronto-London

A very long day … which started at 3:30 am  as we are flying back to Canada today.. I was really awake which mom was not expecting at this time..since I slept very late last night.. we reached airport at 4:30 everyone was there to see us off.. kissed and hugged everyone… and behaved well …standing in the queue… it was very hot.. got eczema….. after checking the stuff in…. we went back to say good bye to our family…. I went to pardeep chacha ji… and didn’t want to come back to mom… had a hard time… once we were settled in… mom changed my clothes… and got in the plane… I did my potty as soon as  we got the seat.. flight was late by 1 hr…got my bassinet but could use it only when i sleep… .  but was in no mood to sleep… wanted mom to stand up coz i wanted to sit in her seat. wanted to move around … so mom took me for walk many times in the plane … had my milk…. slept for 3 hrs and got some fever… got a dose of advil…

Reached birmingham …had to walk a lot… which was quite difficult for mom… with so much stuff.. got through the security… they kept our Vaseline lotion and Benadryl  as they were above 100 ml. reached our terminal…. and finally got a chance to run around …. make many friends… opened zips of many bags … the flight got delayed by 3 hrs due to volcanoes eruption  so we will reach Toronto late.. as soon as we entered the plane again… i got another dose of advil due to my fever.. had some milk and ritz(snack) and mom moved in the aisles with me on her shoulders…. She was very tired… coz she had not slept for almost 20 hrs.

Reached toronto at 8 pm …late by 3:30 hrs.  and i had fever again.. so got another dose of advil.  Got a lift from the terminal to immigration check… had to wait a lot for the luggage as belts were very slow. I liked the water pump… and was amused to see people drinking water from there…. while waiting for the luggage… mom moved me around in the stroller coz I was getting very restless. Finally got our to meet dad and harpreet mama ji… at around 10.  I was very happy to see both of them …  I liked to sit in the car seat… without creating any fuss… which no one was expecting… i slept after some time…. we stopped for coffee at tim hortons in woodstock… i had a sip or two and was charged again… reached home at around 12:30 and got up …. was very excited to see all my old toys… and wanted to play with them… as they appear new to me… after riding my  dirt bike for some time… I got another dose of advil and slept at around 2:30

Got up early as usual and wants to go out…. mom had a dentist appointment so she went and i stayed back home with dadi ma….she came back with pammi nani ji.  Gurpartap uncle came to met us … mom wanted to pack stuff but me and muskaan di gave her hard time…  mom was not feeling well… stomach upset from many days so she slept with me for some time.. Finally we packed stuff mom let us sit on the suitcase. I always make my smallest suitcase lay down and jump on it. slept late at 10:30 .. Pardeep chacha ji put our suitcases in the car at night so that we can save some time in the morning.

Its party day…. since its my grandpa retirement party day… my dada ji does not want an elaborate party…. as he never believed in showing off anything in life…. simple living has been his motto…. throughout his life… .and respecting that we arranged a small party at hour home in the evening…. In the afternoon, all his present and past colleagues gave him a small send off party  in the hotel … \

 Everyone started coming to our house in teh morning…  All my papa’s bhua ji, fufar ji, chacha and chachi ji will be here….. along with all his cousins…. we first went to the party at the hotel that dada ji’s colleagues have arranged…. muskaan di was dressed in a very pretty dress and hair pins…. but I got hold of those pins and removed them and she pulled the rest herself. So when we reached the hotel… there was only one left on her hair…. we were served cold drinks… i started to grab the glass and want to drink… mom did not want me to have soft drink.. so i pulled it so hard that …. i spilled it on my dress and on mom’s salwar…. she had to stand at the end while picking me up…. since I was trying to grab other people’s drinks and was making sounds….

 I had a small pakora… we came back and everyone was ready for next party. …grandpa and mom cut the cake and we gave them gifts…. i actually make him wear a gold ring…. in his finger…. like a matured person…. funny thing was …when muskaan di was trying to put the gold chain in dada’s neck… she first put it in her neck…. instead of grandpa….. anyways the cake was very tasty and i had it…. and although pakoras were very spicy… me and muskaan di had one each…. i make mom carry me most of the time and it was very hot even AC was of no use….. We slept very late …. since there were lot of people … and i was busy  playing with all of them

 Read here a poem that my dad wrote for his dad

We went to parlour with mom and chachi ji…. and played around the whole parlour….. and sat on mom’s lap while she was getting a facial. Muskaan di got an hair cut from the parlour… Then in the evening, chacha ji took me to a saloon…so i had my first hair cut in the saloon in India. I was silent for the whole time… when i was given a hair cut… but when the barber was trying to cut the hairs from my front side.. close to the forehead…. I cried a little… but then coming back with chacha ji was fun… loved it….

I even don’t go to mom… .when they were leaving… but the aunti with whom i wanted to go out…. was not very healthy…. so my dadi ma has to take me while walking with her…. and then came back from half way… but i still cried……
