Birthday card!

When we entered home today evening, I saw a mail in the mailbox. Just from its appearance it looked like a geeting card and I instantly knew who had sent it. :D Since this person has sent a birthday greeting every year, without fail, for Betu's birthday. Its none other than his Ruchi Mausi and Rahul Mausa! :)

Since my hands were full I asked Betu to pick it out. After picking the mail he was trying to hand it over to me but just then I looked at the name and told him "Yeh aapka letter hai!" He looked bemused and said "Mera?" and then I told him "Yeh aapka birthday card hai. Ruchi Mausi be bheja hai! Sameer ne aur Mausa ne". I'm not sure what words to use for his expressions or actions. He eagerly tore open the envelope and pulled out the card. And then excitedly said "Sponge Bob Square Pants!" the smile on his face was just so priceless!

And when he opened the card, a song started to play and he gaped at it with mouth wide open. He looked at me and then at the card. He was so ecstatic! He kept opening and closing the card over and over again!

Thank you Mausi - Mausa and Sameer for such a lovely card! Muaaaaaaaahhh!!

And when I opened the card to listen to the wordings of the song, he strictly told me not to saying "Battery finish ho jayegi!"

Yes boss!

Oh I'm so glad he liked the card. I wasn't sure if he'll know about sponge bob square pants. But I guess aajkal ke bacchon ko duniya main kya horaah hai, sab pata rahta hai :-) BTW, I noticed that sometimes you write hindi phrases. You should try using the Devnagri tool. It's really easy to use.

Sooo cute ..:) So he knows that the music comes due to the battery ...I guess i am still to digest that kids are smarter than us these days :P

I can feel Betu's happiness. I am sure he was feeling very important when there was something in the letter box addressed to him. I used to! :D
