Trip to a Hindu temple

A little while ago, we went to visit a Hindu temple with our friend Kamuni and her family. It was our first time! We were so amazed by the beauty of the temple and really enjoyed learning more about the Hindu faith and how the people worship. Here are some photos from our time there. We couldn't take any photos inside, but trust me, it was sooooo beautiful :)
This is Kamuni and her daughter Minu. She's 3 years old. We became really good friends, and even though she doesn't talk much and I talk my own Sofi-language, we were still able to understand each other and have a lot of fun! On the car ride there, we were playing peek-a-boo with the same blanket we found in the back seat :)
Papa enjoyed going there too, since he's an architecture buff. He was impressed. Doesn't he look handsome here?!
I took some time to reflect on the meaning of life...


... and the meaning of "do not enter".... hmmmm....

... I guess it DIDN'T mean, come jump in the small fountain pool because mama screamed NO! when I got ready to jump in...

The other day, I learned a new skill... how to blow my nose!!! But then later that day was when things turned ugly. I was going about my usual afternoon, playing, drawing and such, when I got a great idea! Mama just bought a new full box of tissues, what a great time to practice my new nose-blowing skill!!!! FANTASTICO!!!!
.... turns out, not so FANTASTICO. Apparently I used too many tissues.... well,....ALL of them, and mama and papa weren't too happy. What made it worse, while they were busy on the computer and cleaning, I drew a picaso-esque picture... I don't know why they didn't like it!!! Maybe it was the canvas that I chose? Hmmm...

I got an ear-full from both mama and papa....

I was sorry for what I did.... ... and I tried to clean up my mess ...

.. but it was EVERYWHERE... even on ME :)

Just 'cause mama thinks I'm B-U-TIFUL

All in a day's work

Mama caught me using her computer to update my blog! All this time I've been able to sneak around and get my "work" done, but now she knows I use HER computer!!!! Hopefully this won't mean the end of blogging for me.... we'll see. Mama's real sensitive about her Mac ;)
