Today is Viji Paatti's Birthday.
Its really a very special day for us.... as paatti is completing her 59th year and entering 60th year - Another milestone....
We came to Chennai on 8th March, as we had a 1st Birthday for Tamira, Amma's Cousin Maurya Mama's Daughter. They celebrated Tamira's Birthday in MAHAMUDRA, (Isha Group Restaurant) located in Mylapore. We all had a wonderful time inspite of my cold and cough.... the only sad thing is I could not eat the Eggless cake which has so much cream and looked so lovely, colourful and tempting. Amma gave me a bit... and I tasted it. I controlled myself so much to celebrate Patti's Birthday.
PAATTI'S BIRTHDAY
We celebrated Paatti's Birthday yesterday evening itself, as I have my leadership session today at Pondy and also I could not put leave to school on Monday.
Chithi made arrangements for our evening get-together, cooked few delicious items at home all alone and ordered few from the hotel. She has already ordered for an eggless cake in Hot Breads and Chittappa collected it from them by around 5.30 in the evening... till then we kept all the arrangements in secret from paatti. But while Chittappa carrying the cake inside the house, paatti came to knew it... from then, she kept on asking us.... why we bought cake??? We just smiled at her and asked her to get ready. We all got ready in the meantime. (here WE refers to Thatha, Paatti, Appa, Amma, Chittappa, Chithi, Sathvi & I)
We arranged flowers to Mother & Sri Aurobindo in the afternoon. We offered prayers, meditation followed by Elango Thatha's speech by 6pm.
After Meditation, we asked Paatti to go down and made her look after few other chores. Meanwhile, Appa and Chithi arranged the table for cake cutting in Sri Mother's Room. Amma kept the cake in the middle and we kept the candle. The cake was so colourful & yummy.
Then we went down & asked paatti come up. We all accompanied her. She came & her joy knew no bounds... Thatha gave her a wonderful gift. We all asked her to cut the cake. She wanted all of us by her side and we all cut the cake ;-). Hmmmm.... yummy..... it tasted superb....
After cake cutting, Appa, Amma & I gave her another lovely gift and then its Chithi, Chittappa & Sathvi's turn to give her gifts.

Later we all had a sumptuous dinner.... chatted for hours.... and an hour past mid night, we all went to bed.
Today morning by around 6.40, we three started to Pondy, as I'm having a Leadership Session today by 9.30, which has been intimated to me only yesterday evening by Sudhir Coach. Earlier we plan to start by afternoon... now we started a bit early... I am a bit upset over this sudden change in our plan, as I thought of playing with Sathvi.... :-(...
Chithi's ( in her own name Nithya Balaji) another story (4th Story) has been published in today's Varamalar (Dinamalar)... இனி எல்லாம் நலமே!
We are very happy - Chithi's Story published today, that too on Paatti's Birthday......
Hats Off Chithi... You are Rocking....
