Janmasthami....the way it was never before!!

Since my childhood days the only eagerness about Janmashthami was the holiday it use to bring in from the daily routine. But this year I got into the festivities courtsey Kushu.

In his school the day was to celebrated in true gokul style and he was the chosen one to play the role of "Krishna" - The boy. I do not see any capabilities other than his shape and size to actually bag the role. He always choose to be at a distance with girls.....now what kind of a Krishna he will be.

I'm really worried as I have high hopes from him on this front atleast. I'm ready to provide all the infrastructure but at the end of the day (yes I prefer nights) he has to woo them.

Chalo not to get worried about future as I've seen a lot many people changing there life style at a later date. I can only hope.....

To come back to the present.....we (read my wifey) did all the shopping to get him into the role of Krishna. There is one stop shop which makes millions due to these kind of dictats thrown in by these schools....I'm sure the schools are also sharing a cut from the shop. He has a monoplistic advantage.

But all my pains of loosing a few hundred bucks vanished when I saw Kush in that attire of Krishna. He was looking too adorable to be discribed. The dress rehearsals the night before went fine and well participated by mommy, dad and the participant himself.

Next morning I was surprised to see the pain he took to get himself ready for the occasion. The kind of detailings he was interested in made me wonder if we are going to be a star-parents soon. It was seen to be believed the amount of effort and time he spent in getting ready.

AND MASHALLAH WHAT A FINAL PRODUCT CAME OUT FOR US TO BE SEEN!!

I changed my program for the day to drop him to school (earlier mommy dear was suppose to). Till date since his birth he was never so quiet in the car perhaps may be taking care of his makeup and accessories. I'm telling you all we might be on the verge of becoming star parents.

Later that day I came to know that a little dress malfunction almost ruined his day when the dhoti he was wearing got torned off from the back when he tried to sit on the floor.....

Now size doesn't help you always!! Next time I need to bring in branded attires only.

This janmashthami we enjoyed the festivities for the first time.....more importantly he got himself soaked in every minute of the day.
