Continuing on the same theme as my
previous post . . . A couple of weeks ago, we were at a picnic organized by the cultural organization that we have been associated with for many years now. On that very hot day, as I cooled off so many little hands with Mehendi, I was reminded of the days when my own girls were that little. They want to be done soon, but want the most elaborate design possible, they want the best stain, but want it off the hands as soon as possible, and as it dries, the stuff keeps coming off *accidentally* (so they can get a peek at the stain, fascinating!!), and want it redrawn, lest that part would be stained less. At this picnic there was one boy who was intrigued enough by this to want it on his hands too, but I think was unsure of whether this was meant for boys or not, and so he got a star on just his thumb.

And the fun seems to double when cousins are around. This picture is from a few years ago. Looking forward to a repeat action soon, in the next couple of weeks, this time, with an additional cousin.
