Shivaratri

It was a good family get-together for us this Shivaratri. Quite entertaining, unlike the silent ones we've had every year. We had Omnext to us squeaking....Ahana insisting that she also do the linga pooja. All of us sat together for the linga pooja (a pooja done for the shivalinga's that each one of us have) and thats when Ahana felt disappointed that she was missing out on something. Looking at her disappointment, her appaji came up with a brilliant idea...he handed her a black grape...told her that it was a "linga" (small shiva linga) and she had to do as she was told. Luckily my baby did not realise that she had been duped and the whole pooja was completed smoothly without her crying.


Thats her reciting all the ganesha, gayatri, saraswati mantras that she has learnt.
