My Mom - Pillar of Strength

She never ceases to amaze me, even now. I agree as a kid, you are always in awe of your parents. Sometime during your tween time though, you start to think whatever they know is outdated and flash 10-15 years later you realize you still have to know all the stuff that they know. Look here my Mom, as fresh and as confident as she can be after 24 hour long journey half way across the world without the knowledge of language spoken in this country. Look how comfortable she looks,as if she has just completed 1-2 hours of journey in my hometown. I was sleepless about her travelling alone. When I asked "Weren't you scared?" She said, "Not at all, I was travelling first time international, I didn't know what to be scared of, I was rather thrilled" Huh...perils of knowing immigration, customs and huge airports. We overqualified mortals 😅

Paper Swan and drawing Dinosaur

Its never too late to learn how to make paper planes and boats. I strongly believe this is an essential skill to be an adult. Well apart from frog jumping, be able to do thumb cutting magic trick, making sand castles, singing and dancing among others. Ok, I will take down dancing. And this has nothing to do with what adult age we are talking of, or whether or not you have kids.  Geared with all these up my sleeves, I have survived in fact been great with my lil'l one till now.  So life is sorted, you are the magician and audience is ever cheered up. And then one day out of nowhere someone makes paper swan and gives it to my daughter (How dare they?)  No, I am not adding that as an essential skill, but my hubby has taken keen interest in paper swan and so has my star.  So, roughly 12 days after, taking to the task of making paper swans, I have found about 27 swans in different sizes, shapes and colors around the house. Different colored swans are due to use of Fliers
