google hangout session restored

I had posted sometime back that it is quite painful to see the virtual image of chikoo and not being able to hug him and hold him close and smell baby smell and feel the soft cuddliness.

But then it is different now. A few days of not seeing him even virtually was very painful.. So I asked D to come to google hangout. It was so nice to connect with him, with all the limitations of distance and lack of physical contact. I was wondering, when we get something, we want the whole, and only when you dont get even that something, you realise what you are missing.

Chikoo was dancing to D's favourite Ajit song, smayi ayi ayi ay,,,Of course D was holding him and waving his hands and swinging his legs. He was so happy. he was gurgling and making all sorts of sounds.  He was able to see me and was smiling, I was telling D he will get confused, so minimise the screen at your end. She said, he is happy and does not get confused these days.He is becoming a big boy now.

With this pronouncement, she just put him down on the bed in a sitting posture and was about to get cushions to prevent him from sliding down. But he was sitting quite steady and I was able to see the magic and was so thrilled. D immediately went and got her mobile and took a few shots of him. before he began to lean on one side.

He is talking to trees D told me. She had taken him out for walk and he was looking at the branches swaying. A gentle breeze was also blowing and Chikoo started talking to them in his language. D called me and I was also listening in. D says just like he started smiling at the switchboards and fans and lights before he smiled at her, he has started to talk with the trees first!

Every day is a new day, every day chikoo is excited learning new things, seeing new things.
The mother is busy tending to him and the grandparents are enjoying his growing up hundred percent.

Patti and thatha title is hard fought and to be held really close to your chest.
