Anish virtual second birthday :)

Time really flies away. Anish is 2 years old now. I still remember the day when I had to cut the umbilical cord from his mother on February 29th 2012 at night 11.30 and I got the status of DAD :) Had a chance to celebrate Anish virtual second birthday on 1st March 2014 (since he is a leap year kid) in India with my parents, in-laws and friends. During first birthday we were in Germany, so we didn't get a chance to celebrate Anish first birthday in India. It was really nice to catch up with all my friends and relatives after a long time. Thanks to all the well-wishers who stayed during the tough times of Anita’s pregnancy. When I look back these two years, credits to my wife who managed this early parenting period without the support of parents, in-laws, servant maids in India. The celebration was enlightened by the dance performed by various kutties and everybody enjoyed the dinner.

Cherry Blossom Festival, Washington DC

When I came to US in April 2013 it was spring season. The flowers started to blossom and I came across the famous Cherry Blossom festival in Washington DC. I made it a point that I should visit DC in 2014 with my family to experience this Cherry Blossom festival. Thanks to Hemanth who motivated me to visit his family in DC and combine the Cherry Blossom festival. The whole city of DC was bubbling around with smile, sunshine, good mood and the colorful flowers adding flavor to it. The interesting feature about this Cherry Blossom festival is that it happens only for a week either in the first or second week of April and after that the flowers starting to fall. It was nice to catch up Hemanth after nearly 10 to 12 years. It was indeed a memorable weekend.
