Aarav babbles

I always had in mind to document Aarav's cute toddler babbles so that I can relive those moments even if my memory fails me later in life.
I was making dosas for dinner one night when Aarav said "Tachu amma for making dosa". My heart melted when I heard those words, nobody has every thanked me with so much sweetness before :)
Putting Aarav to sleep is always an arduous task, I have done everything from singing, humming, letting him stroke my hair, reading books, and the list goes on. One night in Switzerland, Ashwin and I were enlisting all the entities that were sleeping in order to put him to sleep. We started with "Sun is sleeping, moon is sleeping, cars are sleeping, sky is sleeping...." to which Aarav added "Rain rain go away is sleeping"!! "Open the door is sleeping" Brought a smile to both our faces :)

I think my son is inspired by Simon Sinek. Every conversation starts with a why. Conversation this morning
Him: "Why is it morning?"
Me: "Because the sun is out"
Him: "Why is the son out?"
Me: "Because it gives us light"
Him: "Why does it give light?"
Me: "Because there is a chemical reaction called nuclear fusion going on"
Him: "Why is nuclear fusion going on?"
Me: "Because hydrogen is fusing into helium"
Him: "Why is it fusing into helium?"
Me: "Arghhh!!
