When Adit wakes up in the morning, he calls out for either me or his Aai. He gets very upset if the parent he is not calling for, shows up to get him out of bed. We haven’t been able to figure out any pattern or reason why he chooses one of us. Yesterday was one of those days when he was calling for Aai when he woke up. When I went to get him, he started saying, “No, dada. Aai first. Aai first.” I tried telling him that Aai was not here and she was in India, but he kept repeating himself. Finally, he got out of the bed and went through all the bedrooms to make sure that she wasn’t hiding anywhere before agreeing to let me get him ready.

BTW, he says “eenda” for India. :)




It looks as if I forced him to sit on the horse to take the photo.

peek-a-BOO!
