April Fools Day!

Belated Happy Fools Day!

Yesterday morning, Aditya called his grandparents and played an April Fools prank on them!  Woo-Hoo!


In other news, Aditya has been playing Wall Ball with other kids in school.  When he began doing this a couple of months ago... he did not stand a chance against those veterans!

So we recently began to practice it with him every weekend, both in the backyard as well as in the school playground.

Today, Aditya is hooked on to wall ball, and just like everything else that once seemed extremely challenging for him, he has learned wall ball too... at least he is as good as an average 8 year old now!  

Our Son Rise program volunteers now play with him in the back yard too.  Actually, it is Aditya who invites them to play Wall Ball in the backyard!

In related news, Sundays have become "family activity" days.   On one Sunday we took the twins to the aquarium.  On two other weekends, we played a whole host of games in the backyard--- from badminton to cricket to tag to hopping-on-one-foot tag (called "Langdi" in India where Aai-Baba grew up)!
