Days of my life!!

Date: 28th June 2026 Dear Kapish, One of the observations in your Year 1 report was that you were able to grasp Spanish concepts quickly. The only thing your teachers felt was missing was regular practice, which would help you become more confident and proficient in the language Now, choosing Spanish as your second language was something I had advocated for quite strongly Hindi as a second language was always important to us, but we believed that, as a family, we could help you become fluent in it over time. French was the other option available, but I felt it wasn't quite as relevant as it once used to be. Spanish, on the other hand, is spoken across a large part of the Americas. I couldn't help but imagine the possibilities that knowing the language could open up for you one day—whether it be studying abroad, traveling through countries less explored, or simply connecting with people and cultures that would otherwise remain unfamiliar Of course, all of that depends on whether...

Date: 21st June 2026 Dear Kapish, Today happens to be both Father's Day and International Yoga Day, and so Mumma suggested that we head downstairs after your gymnastics class and click a few pictures in some yoga poses She also came up with a rather nice tagline for the occasion: "The Day of Balance." It felt especially appropriate because balance lies at the heart of both yoga and fatherhood. One teaches you how to stay steady on the mat, while the other teaches you how to stay grounded through life's many ups and downs. Now, the world may tell us that this is our 7th official Father's Day together, but in my heart, every single day since the day you were born has been special. And even today, whenever the opportunity presents itself, we still find ourselves cuddled up together in a pose very similar to the one below Some things change with time. Some things don't. And I hope this bond is one of those things that never does. Lots of love to this special relat...

Date: 10th June 2026 Dear Kapish, I believe you were around 4 years old when, one evening in the play area, you saw a girl perform a perfect cartwheel on the grass. You were completely fascinated by it. The moment we got home, you started trying to do the same thing yourself, practicing little flips and tumbles on the bed whenever you got the chance. That was when I first thought that, someday, it might be a good idea to enroll you in a gymnastics class. Not necessarily because I wanted you to become a gymnast, but because guided training would help you develop your strength, balance, and flexibility in the right way. Fast forward to this month, and I discovered that gymnastics classes were still being conducted in our society every weekend. We decided to give it a try and see whether it would contribute positively to your overall development It has been about two weeks now, and I must say that you have made impressive progress. You are already attempting front and back rolls, practici...

 Date: 10th June 2026 Dear Kapish, This morning, we were watching a video of an influencer family you love to follow, featuring little Samayra Narula. In the video, Samayra received a toy laptop for her birthday, and after watching it, you immediately asked for one too. When we asked why you needed a laptop, your answer came without hesitation: "For my restaurant!" Mumma then reminded us that you had made a very similar request when you were much younger. It was delightful to see that, even after all this time, the idea of having your own toy laptop still held a special place in your imagination. But getting one right away wasn't possible, and you were determined to have something immediately. That's when your creativity took over. You quickly asked me for a sheet of paper and, within minutes, designed and built your very own mini laptop Not only that, you proudly attached your restaurant's name to it and got straight to work. Soon, I found myself as your customer...

Date: 3rd June 2026 Dear Kapish, Today, we welcomed home our brand-new car — the Mahindra XUV 7XO AX7L . All three of us went to the showroom to bring her home, and we've finally named her "Krishna" — after the beautiful white stallion associated with Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj . While I had been thinking about changing my car for some time—after nearly 11 wonderful years with our Honda City —the real inspiration behind choosing a white SUV came from an unexpected source - You! One day, you gave me a handmade model car crafted from simple stationery and craft materials and suggested that I keep it on my desk. At the time, it seemed like a thoughtful little gift. Looking back, it turned out to be much more than that That model car is still sitting on my desk today, and in many ways, it was the seed that planted the idea of what our next car would be. Long before I knew it, that little creation had already pointed me toward Krishna. We've made countless memories in...
