Presents

Morning sickness just takes months away from one's life and that is exactly what I have been going through since end of December! I ended up travelling to London on work the first week that I could keep my head out of the toilet. The trip is nothing much to write about but what I want to share is growing Tarana's demands for presents. On my way out of the door I asked Tarana what would she like from London? My very practical daughter said a new potty, dudu (milk) and a bottle of Horlics!

I have to admit that I did ignore her list but it reminded me of Robin and my constant disagreements on presents. Robin believes that presents should be things that one wouldn't usually get oneself. I, on the other hand, am like my daughter – it's all about practical presents I tell him and our disagreement continues. I guess Tarana is going to be the practical present type so I might as well have a husband who's a bit more extravagant!

P sent Tarana a pram for her doll as T is really into babies at the moment. T hasn't left the pram alone for a minute since I got home on Saturday and even took it to Nursery this morning. 'Baby has to go to school' she insisted this morning with a – what's wrong with these silly grown-ups – look on her face!
