...So goes a little nursery rhyme, the words of which seem to be coming alive in our home every night. Or at the very least, for 15 odd nights of the month. :)

Thambi's fascination with the mun started recently and he has been quite diligent about it. Frequent have been the nights, when the rest of us have gone to bed, and he will still be wandering about in the darkness, his little form moulding the curtains, shifting every now and then, as he peeps in and out, the blinds rattling under his fingers, as he tries to lift them enough to catch a glimpse of his favorite nighttime object. The very form of a little boy, silhouetted in the darkness, looking upwards, face bathed in gentle moonlight, is so adorable and peaceful. And its just one of those things that makes time stand still, all the worries dissipate, and the bedtime stretch a little longer in the magic of simplicity...

Count me in as Sathya's 'mun' gazer buddy. I love gazing at the moon, specially the one that peeks into my bedroom at night through the window and reflected off the mirrors in the bathroom. I should take a pic some time and send it over.
there is truly something magical about the moon...my son loves moon gazing too, particularly a full moon in a dark night.
That must be a stellar picture indeed. Click click and send pliss.
SBora : Sigh. That sounds just perfect. Full moon...dark night...little face looking up, enchanted.
