All my life I have been expressive. I am getting more talkative now so everyone can understand more of what is going on in my brain. Amma asks me about my dreams in the morning often, and I can tell her about them.
Kanmani Atthai and Mahendran Mama visited us from India (well they already were in California for their grandchild's birth). It was a good visit. We went hiking around Boulder, saw the elephant show (and playing polar bears) at the zoo, had fun in the snow up in Rocky Mountain National Park (including tasting some snow, throwing snowballs, and playing king of the snow pile), and ate yummy food! I like playing stop and go with my arms - just like a train crossing - and did so on our hikes together. At the zoo we also saw some Peruvian dancing (and then I got to practice it at home).
Generally I love playing with Legos (this runs in the family) and Appa is letting me play with more of his legos, including cool worker men, trucks, and even divers. As an incentive to use the potty regularly (I am okay on a schedule but occasionally have some accidents), Amma and Appa created a flag and reward system - so as I went consistently, I received many different little Lego men! Batman, Superman, Hulk, Captain America... and Star Wars characters as well. Sometimes I brought them to bed with me.
I loved the auto show with grandpa. I got to drive about ten different cars. There was this huge bear (and I mean HUGE - 2 stories tall) that was blue (weird, huh?) and was looking in the window from the outside. One truck had a really really big baseball in the back of it. And then there was this driving section where Jeeps (like Appa's) went bumpety bump over different obstacles. We got to have some snacks and watch some for a while. I even got two new play cars to bring home.
We now have a sandbox right in the backyard (thanks Amma!). So digging and scooping and building castles are all quickly accessible. It is starting to get warm enough to eat dinner outside too (except when it snows!).
On Easter, I enjoyed hunting for eggs. And of course eating the chocolate that was in them (though I did give some back to Amma to hide second and third times). When Hiroshi kept hiding the eggs after I found them, the fun lasted a long time. We also visited Grandma and got to play with some new balls there.
Since the McGregors took spring break off, Molli watched me, and I hung out with Ara too. There was this HUGE snowstorm that knocked a bunch of branches down that week. We built a snowman in the backyard. Then I got to help clean the branches up with grandpa and Takaji on Easter.
Amma is my best friend. Thambi and Appa are also my best friends. And I tell them so.
Thank you God for Legos, snow, and oranges.
