You are an only child, and as such have the concomitant benefits. But you also have no shortage of kids around you – Siddharth and Maya (my sister’s kids who are 9 and 7 years, respectively) next-door ensure you don’t miss the presence of siblings as you grow up. Siddharth is your idol and you learn an incredible number of things from him.
At school, you have made some very good friends. One of them, Vibhav, stands out. The positive about your school is that being co-ed you are growing up with a healthy respect for girls! Given your still-somewhat-mild manner in school, everyone is your friend!
Talking of school, it is good that your handwriting has improved dramatically, along with some progress on the drawing front. Many months ago, tired of waiting for accolades in class from the teacher, you asked me to take some stamps that you could give yourself at home. The titles – Fantastic, Keep It Up, Excellent, Fabulous, Very Good, and your favourite and most sought after, Neat Work.
Continued tomorrow.
