So don’t be surprised if I don’t publish comments tonight. I am going to sleep better than I have in two years. The house is flooding again, I still can’t get cellphone signal in parts of the house, the kitchen is still a mess, I don’t know where my head ends and my ass begins, but the Brat loved school. Yes, the school loved Brat and the Brat loved the school and we love the school and we love the Brat too. So err, seeing how coherent I am, it is probably a better idea to call it a night. Thank you good folks for your wishes, your blessings, for the hand holding, the tear wiping, the loving emails, the text messages, the good vibes… Somehow it felt today like my whole life had been leading up to this moment. I can now exhale. It’s all good.
PS: When we walked in to school, bright and fresh and early, he skipped to the classroom without looking back, after giving me a brusque, “I need to go now Mama, you go home.” Yes, you do darling. It’s about time this little bird flew the nest. Happy flying!

Arrey, yeh ho kya raha hai? Naye domain ka kya hua? I saw this post there last night.. and then thought I’d comment later.. and now I can’t access it. I can’t comment on your post announcing the new domain. And now this post is here. Koi kuch samjhao!
arrey its giving some problem so we’ve gone offline to sort it out.
If you are talking of night and sleeping in broad daylight, yes, your senses have taken holiday to celebrate the Brat’s delight of the new school, and your delight of his delight about the new school.
Congrats and Thank God your efforts bore fruit, so do we now get to see Brat in his cute school uniform with a bottle around his neck? Ok after you wake up from the sleep that is.
And congratulations on the new site! But that means I wont be able to comment from office as it doesnt open from here
LOL! no – this is last night’s post. Its on the new website. but i re-posted here since its not opening.
You know how it is, touchwood, touchwood, touchwood or as we would say in Hindi: thu thu thu….

Best wishes to brat, he will surely do well here. MM hope you had a good nights sleep
Whats up with beans admission, when is hers starting?
we’re waiting to see if the school will give her a seat. sometimes kids drop out during the summer holds. else will put her elsewhere.
great! Brat loves school, school loves him, you all love Brat and school. And we love you all. May he always skip/fly into his class. God bless

This too shall pass. remember like Brat ‘then and there’
she meant “flooded with people” ??
nope. water!

So good to hear that- Brat loves school and school loves Brat
Hope you get a goodnight’s sleep.
Also, I should officially delurk now. I think I had delurked once months back but never commented/ kept in touch after that. But well, now I have promised myself to comment on my favorite blogs. Love reading you MM.
Lemme guess… your server couldn’t handle the Mad traffic, that’s why the maintenance mode?
LOL! thats what Deej says. I’m as clueless as ever. She’s the boss.
Given the fan following you have… I was pretty sure the server will crash
Spend some moolah on a good hosting plan!
Congratulation on Naya Ghar, Naya school and naya web address!! Missed out on meeting with you and your family.. coz:
1) son was not feeling well
2) we were in Sector 35 Noida and you were in Gurgaon
3) You were busy moving/shifting
Insha-allah, kabhi na kabhi mulaqaat ho hi jaayegi.. specially if you guys are coming to East Coast. We are in Edison, and I’ll show you around Mr. Stein’s old place.
you are in Edison? Will you go kick Mr Stein in the… err… well anywhere will do.
Somehow his post did not evoke any reaction (I am not sure why).. but being a gentleman, I cannot refuse a lady’s request.. but you’d have to be around when I do that
LOL! it didnt evoke any reaction because you’re a gentleman
unlike him.
Yippee! Now I can relax…my favorite blog bachcha has flown mad momma’s nest and landed on his bum safely:-)
V begins a new school too so fingers n’ toes crossed here.
Good to know….I enjoy your posts…Sorry have been lurking all these days..I have a 5 year old and 14 months, some how feel your posts are all related to my current flow…
Happy flying! Brat
Great news! So glad it all worked out for him… and sorry about the mess.
