Baptism blues

It's been almost a week now since my folks and sister have left. Family was down for my nephew's Baptism and besides the fact that we all fell dreadfully ill (from different sources with the same horrid intensity!) it was such a delightful time. I miss these get-togethers SO much! I think the only sadness I can foresee is that my sister and me, almost certainly, will never live in the same country. It makes me sad because we're the closest that sisters can be, even with the distance. Anyway, I'm certainly grateful for air travel.

Look how big my little monkey has grown! I'm the proudest aunt ever!

Also Vishu happened. (Thanks to my friend, Saina, who yearly reminds me about the Keralite festivals that take place)
