We had gone for a short trip to Pondicherry chunnambar beach. After playing in the waves, we were on the shore making sand castle. For a change I told the kids to make a starfish. I drew an outline and told them to fill with sand. Just as we finished making, a huge wave came to the place where we were sitting. It washed away everything that we had made. My 3.5 year old son who was making the starfish with full interest was confused about where it disappeared. He said, " Mom, starfish should be in water. That's why the water took it away ".

Big boy
My son JOEL went for his first stage competition on 8th Nov 2015 when he was 3.5 years old. It was the singing competition in our church. After preparation, he was bold until he went to the stage. Once he was in front of the mic, he got frightened looking at the crowd. He started weeping and came back without singing.
The very next week, on children's day, there was a fancy dress competition in his school. This time we were very worried if he would have the same stage fear again. To our surprise, he was able to do well this time. He got a lunch box as a participation prize.
I asked him " Jojo , if you would have not cried on stage last week, you could have got another prize also na".
He immediately responded "Mom, that time I was a small boy. Now I have become a big boy"..
