Girls and Golu

Anush and Aditi are having fun - dressing up, visiting other golus, eating chundal and so on .

The rangoli on the left plank is by Anush!

Aditi is on Anush's car and in a smocked dress made by the blind from a school in Chennai. As Anush says, "....with seeing itself we make mistakes, it must be so difficult for them!"

Good to see Anush has painted the masks, hope she had fun doing it

She had great fun- did the painting herself- mould work was with her father- that was indeed a thoughtful gift

not a very big collection Art, just some traditional dolls that my mom sent over 5 years ago. Have never made a trip to India during this time, hopefully one day and I will be able to collect dolls to my heart's desire :)

Rad also had a frock made from my mom's blouse peice :) Both kids look so cute and little bonda looks absolutely delish!
