Sunrise sunset.....

Sunrise sunset, quickly goes the day.......
When did he get to be so handsome
when did he grow to be so tall
wasn't it yesterday when he was small

I had to recall "Fiddler on the roof" again because it has now really hit me hard - that Bryan has grown. In the last six months he has added about 6 inches to his height. He looms taller than Monsoon and I actually look foward to the day, he looms over me - physically and stature-wise!

I recall, it wasn't long ago, that I stood in the queue at "Rajhans Balvatika" to pay Bryan' fees for his Jr KG and now he is in Xth std! He has replies like, "For Chrissake, I'm not a kid Mama!", when he is told to take Minoti along to the bus-stop:-) - on days when I want to go for a longer run. The only nice thing is that he consults me for tips on building "abs" and about how many "assisted" push-ups he needs to do before he goes on to the std push-up.

I stepped out the door for my run today with guilt feelings about not dropping Bryan to the bus-stop. However, I told myself that I had been doing if for more than 10 yrs now and I can do with the break. Don't you think 10 years is a big sacrifice? Well, I never thought it as such cause I enjoyed each and every moment.

I met Rajesh during my run and the entire 1 hour duration was taken in a discourse on kinesiology and biomechanics. Rajesh is studying to be a Personal Trainer and took this opportunity to get his "fundas" cleared - the only problem was that I was constantly gasping for breath:-) Well, ok - it wasn't that bad:-) I'm glad to be back from business tour and look forward to meeting up with the large group of runners that will join me on Saturday at Aarey. Gotta think about a name for the group like Kingshuk wants us to.
