Reaching up

Today morning Aasim casually reached up and unlatched the top latch of our front door!!

He is tall for a nine year old – the first image which flashed in front of my eyes was – Aasim about 15 months  old would walk upto the dining table around meal times and peer very critically at the food kept there – only his eyes would reach above the table top. He never bothered to try and stand on tip toes to get a better view or may be he already knew it was not worth the effort…

and we could  read  in his eyes if the food presented was to his liking or not

  • I wonder if the wider world out the front door will be to his liking.

  • ah, a genuine “tall story”!

    • But I do feel that we have not yet heard the long and short of it :)

    they grow up real fast, ay? i look at the kids of friends around me (who i feel were born just yesterday!) and i’m like: ‘when did this happen’? 🙂

    • Re: 🙂

      Yes, at times a bit too fast for the parents to catch their breath…

      BTW nice userpic
