I have been thinking of making a scrap book for Nidhi for a very long time. I have a few ideas but just dont know what kind of book to get , it must be one that will stand the test of time. Maybe I ought to give it serious thought and a good look-around to see what is available.
Already the first year seems like a blur and I seem to remember so little of what she was like. This blog is an attempt to capture it but a book is so much more personal and I can add bits that I cant do here (like her first painting). I think it would be wonderful.
So much has been happening these past few weeks. We are moving home (a bigger place) by the end of the month and I am gradually getting excited about that. Our home trip in January also nears and in the coming weeks we have to finalise lists and start shopping. Also on the anvil is a new job for Ro which sounds promising and not as stressful as the last one has been. And its hard to believe that N will be TWO YEARS OLD soon. And we have started thinking about the next one now and trying to decide about when is the right time. So much is going to happen in the near future, change is exciting!

Post at 2 AM in the morning!!!Sounds disciplining, didi.
Thought of doing something similar...did look around and buy some stuff off the market but realised quickly that it would mean filling the book up for the sake of it...its a better idea to do it the good ole way of creating a scrap book..buy a blank "art copy" as we used to call it and then go about pasting pinning stuff that you want to when you want to...yes it will get a tad unwieldy but what the heck!!!
soumya - i dont think i put that post up at 2am . havent been awake that late in a long time. i dont know why the timestamp shows that!! have sent u the pic today.
sudham - agree with u, only i dint want to use a blank book. i saw some one use an old dictionary , the pages of which, i thought, served as very quirky background.
