sur notes: Walking through spring
http://surabhish.blogspot.com/2012/06/in-college-we-would-sing-old-friends.html
Friday, June 15, 2012. In college we would sing, Old friends, sat on a park bench like book ends. There is time for that but for now i watch old friends lead my child through the world they are creating for themselves. It was a cold day but there were many secret leaves and bashful flowers that Sanah had to be introduced to. This is my friend's favorite- the trillium, a species that is fast disappearing in the wild. What a beautiful walk! June 15, 2012 9:18 AM. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).

sur notes: Posed Photographs
http://surabhish.blogspot.com/2012/07/posed-photographs.html
Friday, July 13, 2012. I dont like them. I dont know how to click them. She gave me instructions. Chose her spot, smiled and said, click. She had chosen Hans Christian Anderson in Central Park. I realised whom she was posing with only after i clicked. I should trust her judgement. It was a very cold and windy day. We spent our time loitering around Central Park, too scared to go into the tunnel of winds on 5th Avenue. And this was an unpublished post written six months back when i had blocked my blog.

sur notes: A tailor
http://surabhish.blogspot.com/2011/07/tailor.html
Monday, July 18, 2011. At the Armenian neighbourhood. If all of us could hang a giant version of the tools of our trade out of the window then we could have some visually compelling neighbourhoods. And if we had those tools falling on our heads? July 18, 2011 12:52 PM. And i will forget that I am fasting and write a reallly non-halal joke. Sorry, he replied we dont sell watches. Our man fumes some and asks So what is it you do, Mr. I have a 1001 clocks in my shop window. I perform circumcisions he replies.

sur notes: Turning Six
http://surabhish.blogspot.com/2011/08/turning-six.html
Wednesday, August 10, 2011. These photos were clicked a year back. She will turn six this sunday. I wish her a lifetime of charted and uncharted maps. We had walked past a see saw and some swings along the river. She hopped onto them and a little child, walking with her grandfather joined in. They spent a long time together, in perfect sync even without a common language. Her grandfather knew a smattering of hindi, they were from Afghanistan. August 10, 2011 8:56 AM.

Saturday, June 16, 2012. To travel with the child is to take her to worlds far away from her comfort zone. We were taken to this farm by a friend of a friend who gave up a long teaching career to live near a forest and grow his own food. He takes care of his neighbour's horses as well , a walk in the forest, perching at the edge of a cliff to see the grand Mississippi river, feeding the horses and running with dogs - she could not stop beaming.

sur notes: I am starting special classes
http://surabhish.blogspot.com/2012/06/i-am-starting-special-classes.html
Friday, June 29, 2012. I am starting special classes. It is bewildering. The play ground is empty of children. The little ones are there but the ones above 5-6 are missing. The kids my child used to play with show up only occasionally. She now plays with 3-4 year olds. She plays gently with them and does enjoy their company and is very caring but she is playing with little kids not her peers. I am thinking of starting classes for children, for Sanah and her peers, classes for empty time in the park.
