Ear Pain and Screen time

The boy woke up with ear pain. The wife gave him Crocin, told him jokes to make him laugh. That did work for a while. Around 430, he said he could not sleep and went to the front room to read. A little later I went to check on him and I found him playing on my spare phone :)

Another year older

The boy was so excited that he woke up at 530 am thinking it was morning. He could hardly sleep. After lying down quietly for some time, then chatting for some time, he finally woke up at 630 am. Milk, reading and he couldn't wait to open his gifts. He had told "books" to whoever asked him what gift he wanted for his birthday. Below is what he got.


Star Wars is his latest craze and Lego is one of his favorite pastimes. His joy knew no bounds when he got the below.



Even more thrilled, when he got this Lightsaber!


He got a Carrom board. Yet to handover the below Chess set to him. Ah beat him in Chess and he was determined to practice and win.


There was a get together at home planned with 4 other children from the apartment during the weekend.

Masks and Covid

The boy has started saying no to playing with friends who do not wear their masks / do not wear it properly.

The other day when we were discussing Covid and numbers he remarked "Don't talk about Covid, I feel terrible!"

On the food front, his breakfast quantity has increased. Encouragement to chew the food properly has not gone down well.

Star Wars

The boy has been officially introduced to Star Wars and he just doesn't seem to get enough of it.


The movie series, the animated series, he is watching bits of it daily. And tantrums mean no screen time apart from school / football.
