See, that’s why I am not a writer.
Okay, some details.
1)Krish was so fussy the first few days that we were totally worried but after a couple of days, it got really better. And after the vacation, he is really a new boy. I guess the vacation was good after mummy went, he had time to get adjusted without her and he had us around him all the time and also a good change of scenery.
2)California is beautiful. The entire place seems to be on hills, not the big, jutting kind of hills but the soft, rolling ones. As I read what I have written, it doesn’t look like I am describing hills
3)Our flight was at such odd times, 6 in the morning and we reached Philly at 2 in the night! And unlike other times, which shall not be mentioned, we got them both
4)Did not do much of shopping this time though I really wanted to and was open to it.
5)Krish wore the same pair of jeans every day, one, because he would wear only that and two, the weather, I. just. Was. Not. Prepared. For. a chilly .weather. Remember, California and all that sun?!
6)And I absolutely love my Iphone. I am soon going to have its baby.
