Dear God,
I pray for my sister's public exams, that she passes them, for my brother's Maths, Science, Social Studies, English, French subjects, that he passes them, for my *shudder* Hindi, Maths, Science, English 1, English 2 and my annual exam that I pass them. I also pray for mummy and daddy's good health. Please give us loooottttts of wealth. Amen. Oh. Wait. And for Ashika akka, who is my cousin sister. Amen. (in the background, the public exam writing sister - giggling at the extempore prayer, the all the subjects issues having brother- yawning, the afterthought cousin sister- staring at the prayer-er whose eyes were eerily only 89% closed).
But as always, an evening spent with the kids leaves me happy happy! And comforted, knowing that its only a matter of time before I become the slim one in the family-and not just because of my work outs!!
