We spent the morning diligently clearing snow from the driveway and stairs, a chore made lighter by the kids' laughter. We enjoyed the winter wonderland around us. They immersed themselves in the pleasures of the snow, creating snowmen with carrot noses and button eyes, sprawling to create snow angels, and cramming handfuls of snow into perfect snowballs. Shaan and I joined forces, our hands working quickly to shape our arsenal of snowballs. Gleefully, we launched a devilish ambush on everyone else. However, Kiran, not quite sharing our enthusiasm for the snowball fight, vented her displeasure at being targeted.

Happy Diwali and Saal Mubarak
The kids have been celebrating the start of the Diwali holiday with their Ami Massi. Yesterday they made rangoli with each of their names.
Together (Shaan, Kiran, Tejus, Nandani) they decorated windows with coloured markers. They drew Happy Diwali and Ganipathy.
They lit and placed diyas (rows of lights) on the steps and pathway of Ami's home last night and tonight as well.
Tonight they lit sparklers.
