What crossed my mind on dad's birthday!
November was fast approaching and we had just enjoyed a series of celebrations for Diwali & Halloween. Almost everyday, there was thunder & lightening with heavy rain in the evenings. Ishika and I decided that we should make a handmade card for her dad's birthday, which was on the 1st of November. Since we don't follow a tradition of giving a gift to the adults in our house, we did not buy him one (How I wish I was a child again.....sob sob!) She looked through the internet and chose a picture and message that she wanted to draw. On the eve of the birthday, she had a fight with her dad about using a permanent marker which was strictly off limits. In order to have a clear handmade card, she needed to use it and fortunately, she managed to get hold of it. In the end, the card looked more like a father's day card than a birthday one :) ( Picture Below ) Later that night, when we got ready for bed, she asked me a question.
