Now I am seven and can read if I want to

 Hi Folks, sorry for this long sabbatical. It was almost impossible for my mom to write the blogs since she would leave her computer at work and will not touch it while she is at home. But lately I see her bringing work home, so it is possible again for her to scribble few lines for me as well. Although I am little over 7 and can read and write by myself, but dont have the access and the ambience to try writing. So I will let my mom write for me!

I had a mixed 2020 where the pandemic almost knocked many of us down with multiple life changing adjustments. One such change for me is no school and no day care! I am absolutely home and at my playful best. I pull all my toys and mess up the house. When my mom says to put them back where they belong, it makes no sense what so ever to me. If they are meant to be kept back neatly, why one needs to have them? They all need to be played with. My barbies are actually people and they have liking and dis-likings and they too like to play. I love playing with them. I open the door in barbies hands and I have a special liking for hand moving and feet moving barbies.

This aside, I have my annual class 1 exams is going on. Now I can read the questions and write the answers my own ways. Although I have not mastered that art, but I am getting independent. I do bunch of things by myself. That includes taking bath, dressing by myslef, going down 5 floors and coming back all by myself. I now know how to read and write in 2 languages that is Hindi and English. Although oriya is my mother tongue, I have not started reading and writing in that language yet, may be someday I will be able to do it.
