Wishing you all a very Happy And Blessed 2011

My Unforgettable Pet

As it is our winter holidays I and my sister where spending a few days in my mother’s house. My mother’s house is  in a village where you can see acres of plain land for long distances. There it was far too cold rather than in my house in Kochi. As Kochi is the business hub of Kerala you could only see flats wherever you look. There by the temperatures at my mother’s house was quite low because of which I needed three blankets to cover me up while I was sleeping.

The main attraction of going to my mother’s house was the dog there. He was a German shepherd named Bruno. He was our dearest. We used to play with him, go for walks with him and he played a crucial role in whatever we did.

On the day of our arrival, we saw a puppy in our court yard. We were quite surprised. When we asked grandpa who that pup belonged to, we got a most surprising answer that was the pup belonged to our own house. This surprised us and we asked our grandpa “Why do we need another dog while we have got Bruno” At this question our grandpa replied quite sorrowfully that Bruno had died a week ago due to age. Hearing this my heart stopped beating for sometime. Tears filled my sister’s eyes so as mine. I looked at the Kennel where Bruno used to be. It was all empty. To cheer us up grandpa said “That’s why I had bought this puppy. I don’t know what breed it is, yesterday one of the villagers sold it to me. I am sure you will take good care of it.” Those words dried our eyes. I had a good look at the new puppy. It starred into my eyes. That touched my heart. My sister took the pup in her arms and started playing with it. We felt much better.

The puppy was so young so it could only drink milk. So from time to time we enjoyed giving it milk. We were thinking of a good name for the puppy but we concluded in none.  It would be nice if you could suggest a few nice names. In the evening we would sent it out in the courtyard and we used to play small games with it. Though both my sister and I enjoyed playing and taking care of the puppy, we truly missed Bruno.

What about blogging!

Hai! I am a young new blogger. I don’t have a very good idea about what blogging is at present but am sure to know better about it in a few days time. My name is Elen and I live in India, Kerala. I thought that it would be nice if I could post my day to day experiences with a few other bloggers. I always loved writing something or the other. In fact when I grow up, I would like to write books. So as to begin with, I thought I would pen down something on my blog on all weekends and the holidays I get. I think it will be fun to read the fun and frolic happening in others lives. So I thought I will also join blogging.

As this is my Christmas holidays, I am free from the burden of studying. I think it would be nice to sow the seeds of blogging right now so that I will have the spirit of blogging even in my school days.

 I hope all of you had a wonderful Christmas with Christmas tress and stars, cakes and candies and in fact the most important, blessings from God!
