We flew on the 19th of may to Dammam [Saudi Arabia]. And what a reception we had in the airport… Law, Bua, chachu, mama – all with big smiles and warm hugs – felt really happy to be with the family. Ryan was and has been an amazing kid right from the time we have reached saudi…Gone is his clinginess. He has a big smile plastered on his face most of the time and a mischievous twinkle in his eyes forever. His vocabulary has always amazed me,but now that he has started constructing sentences and ‘communicating’ in the real sense of the word, everyone is taking notice and forever praising his linguistic skills.I love the fact that he has start communicating so well . I am damn proud of him and I’ m sure Law is too.
Oh! and did mention that he just looovveess his dad?? So Law is treated to teary goodbyes while going to office and warm and extremely excited cries of “dada Yayan pick-up” [meaning: pick Ryan up] when he returns. I am forever praising and sending a silent thanks to lord almighty for these beautiful moments.
In the 3 days that we have been here, Ryan has already figured out that dadiji keeps a ‘thitha’ in her purse invariably and that R chachu is a lovable perennial joker . He has also understood that in case he wants to see his dad and his dad happens to be in the washroom, all He needs to shout is ” Mama, Yayan tummy potty” [ Ryan's tummy wants to do potty] !!!
He is still a fuzzy eater but the situation is better than before.
However there is one thing that bothers Ryan . He does not have access to see squirrels and birds and butterflies like before. Also We have to wait for Law to be back from work so that we can go out. I think that at times he feels like he is being ‘held’ in the house.But he is making the best of what he has …
Here’s a recent snap of his [ his first outing in Saudi]:
