mom's day out

today i had taken off... the initial justification was i wanted to be with R, take her out (well incidentally she finds the summer camp that she was going to boring, so we haven't goaded her, afterall the camp she had chosen and if she does not find it interesting, no point)... so she is home alone while we are at work... but luckily this girl finds it ok, if not fine...
we went mall hopping, doing some trinket shopping, some window shopping... an all through we both were on a high... joking, making fun of people around, and most of the times, it was R who was leading the laughter brigade...
came home refreshed, instead of being tired... so it was my day out instead of her's... life's come a full circle, i would say since those days of my running back from office at Ballard Estate to Andheri to fetch a little R from the creche are over... it was excatly then that i started greying, out of sheer stress, just at 31...
