Some pictures from dude's cool camera with panaromic view, bells and whistles..
We had a pattu class today. I like to kick start my navarathri with the pattu class kids, because the kids have been V's friends since she remembers - a couple of them, even earlier than that. Navarathri is especially blessed with the songs of little goddess of our neighbourhood.
Our paatu class will be entering its fourth year this Vijayadasami.
What a beautiful sight- all of the wonderful colors in the clothing, the rug, and in the decorations!! What lovely children and the mothers, sitting on the bench. this seems like a wonderful thing and an important part of your family and your religion. Thank you for sharing it with us. I also very much enjoyed the pictures on picasso but could not see a place to comment. Thank you so much for sharing them with me! Your daughter is such a pretty young lady! I know you must be proud of her!

Thanks Freedom.
This is one tradition I am glad to pass on to my kid.
We have a small music class of sorts ("paatu class"), once a week, where I teach the kids some songs in Carnatic music. The kids are singing for our kolu in these pictures.

I don't know Purp. I guess we just keep bungling along..as long as we enjoy the process, it has paid for itself. Only future can tell if the bungling was catastrophic or not. I would rather it be "not".
