Yesterday was a good good day.
When I started driving from home in the morning with the kiddo in her carseat, she did not know where we were going. She kept guessing - park, museum, new school (the backup daycare she went to last week - and for the record, she hated it), her regular daycare, etc. She knows all the roads quite well....so she changed her guesses based on the route I took. When I made my first right turn, she started jumping up and down in her carseat with joy. She knew exactly where we were going. As soon as I parked our car outside her caregiver's house and removed her seat belt, she got out on her own and ran towards the house. She was beaming with joy, and she ran into her caregiver's arms as soon as the door opened. They both had tears in their eyes at their reunion after 11 days :)! It was a sight to watch!
I picked her up in the evening and brought her home. She knew her nana-nani were coming from India, and she thought everyone will surprise her when we reach home. But they were going to reach 5-10 minutes after we reached, and I had a tough time containing her excitement during those few minutes. As soon as the doorbell rang, she wanted me to pick her up and see who came...she was expecting her nana-nani and pappa, but she was also nervous as she had not seen them in flesh for several months. We were all quite unsure how she would react. Well, she had nothing but wide grins, and hugs, and kisses for both of them! There were happy tears again on everyone's faces! She was showing off all her skills to them throughout the evening. When bedtime came, she was royally pissed that her nana-nani went to their bedroom and actually slept. She went twice to check if they were awake.....and came back disappointed. She wanted me to take her outside - at 10pm - and was a total mess for an hour or so. She finally calmed down and went to bed. The moment she woke up today morning, she got out of bed to check where they were and what they were doing - yup, our kiddo is pretty possessive about them!
It was a good good Monday :)!

That's why kiddos are so special. The sheer joy they bring to the people they touch.... priceless.
