Dear little Ceyone,
You've been blessed with the most amazing grandparents or Papa's parents and your Dada-Dadi.
Dada-Dadi came to see you in Singapore when you were about 5 months old and then later for your first birthday. They were amazing at calming you down and you'd spend long time playing with them.
You lying peacefully in Dadi's lap. Dadi seemed to be remembering the days when Papa was your age.
In the evening Dada Dadi used to take you to the terrace pool where Dadaji had a quick swim while you watched around with Dadi.
Dadaji time.
As Dadaji had to catch up on news, you also got to watch some TV with him. Otherwise, we never switched on the TV in your presence. I wanted to steer clear of the gadgets as long as possible.
Dadi was a pro at calming you down.
We celebrated your month birthday together. By that time you started to lose your hair naturally leading to a cool mohawk hairstyle. The hair grew back later beautifully. We attributed it to be a natural mundan (head shaving ceremony) and never did a real one for you. Papa and I believed in giving up the irrelevant torturous practices and welcomed change.
Dadi trying to get you a lick of the cream.
The entire family together.
Dadaji composed an entire song for your when you were born. He wrote the lyrics, composed the music and sang the song. I couldn't record the entire song but we have below Dadaji's comments on the song. This was the most amazing gift you could get. Mumma and Papa were elated.

Dadaji and Dadi visited us again in December 2013 for your first birthday. Along with your birthday, we celebrated New Years with them.
You wanted to touch the cake the moment you saw it.
Dada Dadi made you cut the cake and you were extremely excited.
All of us together celebrating you in the New Year. Happy moments :) while you attempted to reach the cake.
We had a small picnic.
You enjoyed books and Dadaji absolutely loved it. He read several books to you and one of them was 'No David' where we sometimes changed David with Ceyone and you used to get thrilled.
Happy play times.
Dadi and Tita tried to put you on your toy horse. You overgrew it too soon.
You enjoyed touring the home on Dadaji's shoulder and he loved it too. The rides were short but very enjoyable for everyone.
Dadi and you.

We put you on your high chair.

I made this collage of Papa's and your pic. Papa was about 5 years old in the pic and you were about 1 year old. Yet the expressions were so much similar. Love you both forever!
The picture was a great keepsake.
We took you to the beach at East Coast with Dada Dadi and at first you disliked the wet sand touching your feet. You made a very cute face disapproving it.
We had a small picnic.
A few pics from your first birthday celebrations. The big big happy day for all of us!
