LOVE this -- I surely will...heading over there shortly!!!

Thank you for sharing your reflections, and what fun is was to read of the names of some games in India that I'm not familiar with and would love to know!

I fully agree - there is a special time in a child's life when it's magical: to just play!

It would be fascinating to see if and where the grands would grow up, being that the boys are quite open to going where the opportunities lie.

The fun stage they are in now - where no one is married or close to it, and yet old enough to have these mature conversations is that I want to keep talking to them about what I learned as I look back on the years I raised them - to plant seeds.

So thanks for reminding me - that I do want to talk about this with them. Another topic for the Christmas holiday when they visit ;-)

Talk to you soon!! Thank you, Shashi!!
