A Perfect Day

In the morning Supriya and I sang the four duets we have been on with accompaniment from Band-in-a-Box ("Who wants to be a millionaire?", "Play a simple melody", "Hole in the bucket" and "Edelweiss"). It was snowing heavily outside. After eating her cereal and watching some TV Supriya put on her snow gear and played in the snow for a long time. Manisha's company lost power and she had to come home for lunch. She introduced the kids to Noggin.com and Supriya spent a lot of time there (much of it consisted of playing tunes from "Jack's Big Music Show"
and dancing). Later we dropped off stuff at the Chelmsford library (closed because of the snow) and went for a swim. The water was colder than usual but that did not deter Supriya. She spent a whole hour in the water. The rest of us spent about half an hour. After coming home the kids went straight to Noggin.com and did more dancing as Manisha fed them cheese tortellini.

Now it was time for bed. Aseem just crashed in Manisha's lap after finishing his milk. Supriya and I sat on her bed and she read "Bug in a Rug: Reading Fun for Just-beginners" to me (with some help). Then she climbed on the top of her bunkbed and was out like a light. All in all it was another perfect day.
