Welcome home

Our friends had put in a lot of effort into decorating our home in anticipation of Akshara’s arrival. Our plan to check-out from the hospital changed 2 times because of some issues and both these times, our friends spent time on preparation. So, it was not only us who were relieved when we came home on Saturday 30th Aug, a week after Akshara was born.

We knew the sex of the baby earlier, but had not told anyone other than our parents. So, it was kind of a guessing game for our friends. Harish quoted his “grammathu experience” and had guessed that it would be a girl. He had maintained this until almost a few weeks back, when his guess was influenced by Anith’s confessions of overhead conversations between vidhya and me in our car. So, he changed his guess to that of a boy, which turned out to be wrong. Thanks to Anith, we managed to surprise all.
