This vacation has made Sarvesh – a great Chatter Box. Sarvesh has become one big chatter box like me; he can’t sit simply without talking, so many questions, so many build imaginary stories, so many real stories with some harsh reactions and fight. If I ask him, what u want to drink now, he definitely don’t like to drink milk, but he knows how to handle me, he says like this “yesterday I drank milk one full glass, and felt like something in stomach and playing with a ball, felt so stomach pain, but today morning I had pacchu tea that grandpa gave, it was so nice”, I wonder what is that pacchu tea, before that, why he wants to say a big story instead he should say yes or no, but he never tell that straight. With so many enquiries with my neighbor aunty, I found out that they gave him “ingee tea” means Ginger tea.
One day, he called me so many times and asked me “ Mummy , engae antha horlicks “ .. I asked why you need horlicks, “he told me “ atha vanthu laptop pottu CARS2 padam parka “ , I was shocked and I don’t understand anything, and he doesn’t allow me to work anything, and also crying. Then I went to his daddy and asked what he needs, he told me that he asked him to take the hard disk (external) from the table. Sarvesh called that as Horlicks instead of Hard disk.
He is one non-stop chatter box, he talks so much like a RJ, and sometimes we put him in mute by giving chocolates and ice creams. He loves to coloring, so I bought him two books to color pictures, he keeps talking, watching tv, and coloring pictures.. all at the same time and also shaking his toe. This fellow won’t stop talking after he sleeps also. He always says “ingae parungae” it means look at me, we should look at him while he talks, if we don’t see him, he shouts or cry. He started telling this while sleeping also. I searched so many web sites and some books to search a nice name for my son as per numerology. With so much pain I selected 5 names and finally named him as “Sarvesh Raagav”. But he is so cool and named me “Bonda”. Actually I have put some weight now, so he started calling me Bonda Mummy. My husband started calling me and laughs loudly; I got irritated and asked Sarvesh to name his daddy. With so much difficulties and hesitation, he named his daddy as “Bread”. I asked him why you named him Bread, give him a different and a naughty name. He told me “daddy has no belly and he is flat like bread, so I will call him as Bread Daddy”.
He loves to watch animated movies, and that too 3D animated English movie. He likes so many characters in those movies, he watched Ice age 1,2, 3 and likes that Sid Character, and keeps asking me to bring the dinosaurs to home, so that he will give food and make them fat. I told him that I will buy a dinosaurs Toy, he said he don’t want a toy and he want a real one (where I will go to bring the real one L roomba kastam). He watched Kung fu Ponda 1 and 2, he loves to eat Noodles after watching it. He watched Cars 1 and 2, and he has almost 10-15 toy cars. Who ever ask him what you want, he list car as the first option. The tanker lorry is named Mac and a brown lorry is named Blessy in the movie, he started calling by this name whenever he saw those Lorry on the road. There are so many movies like this and so many stories around it for Sarvesh. He started liking chotta bheem and we never get tickets to watch the same. Last week, we took him to the movie “The LORAX”, I love it, nice movie with a message “Don’t cut the tree”. After watching that movie Sarvesh asked me “why they are cutting the trees and why they are planting the trees”. That’s also a nice question, why we need to cut down trees? Enjoyable vacation period for Sarvesh and also for me.

First Annual Day Function at Blue bells school
March 23th, lovely day I enjoyed a lot and so thrilled to see Sarvesh dance program at his school. When I say that he s going to do dance program to my friends, they are also so excited. His teachers trained him to dance for a week. I know its very difficult to make them dance in front of a huge audience. From morning itself I started praying to God that he should do well and should not cry infront of everyone. He is a good dancer, he dance almost for everything at home. I donno a perfect way to take away his stage fear, but this is a too early thought (Sarvesh is only 3 yrs old). I am sure what ever I cant do , his school mam – Mrs Mary Thomas can surely do that , because Sarvesh likes her so much. Initially, she thought that Sarvesh wont dance and he has shy, fear and cry , so she didn’t plan anything for him. But after seeing him dancing really good for one program, she also trained him to do another dance program with his friends. She always told this to hari and ask him to pray to god that he should do well. Only 2 persons are allowed for the function. So we both (Hari and me) planned to go to function, inspite of hectic work and calls at office. I went so early to office to finish my tasks and came so soon to be there at time but Hari as usual late to the program.
5.30, Blue bells school, no place to sit, all seats are occupied, we were standing for almost 2 hrs to watch the program. So many conditions were announced – No eye contact with the Kids, No signs of dance, No whistle, etc etc. we were eagerly waiting for the black boy – they asked us to dress Sarvesh in black t-shirt and black pant. 2 to 3 programs was over, his mam announced that “ Now , you are going to watch a beautiful dance performance of ten little fingers of Blue bells”. I thought that he might come for this program because he might do well in a group dance rather than alone. Hari told me “Hey, he came..” so nice to see him ..Make up, dressed up like a finger, very nice, but Sarvesh is searching for us immediately when he is placed on the stage. I told hari to hide, because once Sarvesh saw his daddy, he wont do anything except crying. So we both hide behind a tree but watched his first dance program. My cute little boy singed along with the song and danced well. So lovely, cute, I remembered my first program at my school – CSI Matric.School, Coimbatore. Me and hari together danced for a tamil rhyme for the annual day - Sweet Memories, Sarvesh also did same way what we did those days.
I was so curious to show me to him, but hari stopped me and said that there is one more program for him, please don’t show your face, he might cry. So I just clapped and laughed loudly, I cant control my happiness. There are so many programs, in each dance program, there is atleast one kid that starts crying and the other one might think, let me cry or not. I enjoyed a lot watching the program. Now, Sarvesh’s next program, with his friends, sandhavi, harishini… I love to see all the three at the stage. They are so thick friends, I have so much confidence that he will do well with them because Sarvesh is so comfortable with Sandhavi and Harshini.
Now, a different make up, with black big shinning cap, shinning silver overcoat for sarvesh, long black frock for Sandhavi and Harshini. Sarvesh in the middle, left-Sandhavi and right- Harshini. Now also he searched for me, but we didn’t show our face. It’s a lovely rock song, I don’t remember the song, but nice beat, they danced really well, lovely performance, its just one minute dance, but WOW, what a performance, so cute. Everyone enjoyed and asked for once more, so they danced once again. So Happy to see my lovely Boy dancing so nice with his friends, one or two drops of tears in my eyes..may be happy tears. They announced “Wow, Fantastic performance, I love these kids “
I am so shocked and thrilled to see him dancing on the stage without any fear and shy. I want to know the secret of this. When the program was over, Sarvesh came to me, I told him, “super da chellam, you did a lovely dance, I like it so much”. Immediately he asked , “where is my bigger bus that you promised to buy if I dance well”. I donno what to say and just realized this may the secret of his lovely performance. On the way to home, I asked him, how cum you didn’t cry on the stage. He told me ”Sandhavi asked me not to cry and if I cry she won’t talk to me”. What a great friendship, I remember that deva thriumagal scene – a small girl helping her friend for rhyme competition at school..Kids are always great
We were not allowed to take photos, but I took only one and waiting for CD copy of the program.
Annual Day Celebration..Lovely experience for me.

sarvesh's Hypothetical Questions and Thoughts
It’s very difficult to answer some critical questions, that too for kids’ questions. Sometimes, I try too much to give better answer, so that he will not ask next question. Sometimes, I lost my temper and I scold him.
We were on the way to Central Railway station to catch up the train to Coimbatore with lots of luggage. I was holding Sarvesh in one hand and other hand I hold my bag. It was very rush at the time of Christmas Eve. Sarvesh asked me what place is this, I told him this is Railway station, here where the train stops. Suddenly he asked me if train stops, it should be Train station, then why you are saying railway station. What I will tell him, I started crying and said “enna mudilada”. Then we have reached the platform 9 after answering so many questions, some guy accidently hit me with his bag and he asked me sorry, Sarvesh asked me “Who is that Uncle? Do u know him? Whether he is also going to Coimbatore to see his thatha and patti?”
Near my house, some people have started cutting down the branches of the trees for some reason, I took Sarvesh for a morning walk, he asked me why they have cut down the trees, I said may be it reach some height, so they have cut down the trees. He asked “Where will crows sits and build their homes”. I was so shocked and I don’t know what to answer, for time being I said we will build house for crows in our home. Then he told me, “Mummy, take the sticks, then only we can build house for crows”. Its very difficult to answer his questions.
One fine Sunday, I was cooking, he took capsicum and asked me what is this, I thought he won’t understand if I say it’s Capsicum, so I told him, this is chilly. He started laughing and told his daddy that mummy doesn’t know anything, this is not chilly and this is capsicum. He confirmed that I don’t know the difference between Chilly and capsicum.
Sarvesh has lot of memory power, my husband thought him to play online word games and brick games from some website. Yesterday, Sarvesh asked me to launch the games2girls site, and he told that he will select the games whatever he wants. I don’t know the website address and I typed www. gamestogirls, suddenly he stopped me, this is not correct, type games and number 2 and then type girls, really I don’t know what to say, he is such a genius fellow. He spend almost 3-4 hrs per day playing in laptop and then with IPOD, that too only word games and coloring games.
Sometimes I reach home very late, by 11.30 pm, if I have some deliverables or someone is on leave, Sarvesh asked me so many question, where did u go, why you are coming late, did u have food, etc etc at that time, i feel like my parents are staying with me.
Today kids are so genius, not only Sarvesh, even my friends’ kids are so brilliant and playing and learning in laptops (though they are under 3 yrs). And they know how to make them engaged with the latest technologies.
