It’s legal

Saturday, 1 July 2006 – Thambhi and SIL is legally married. They took up their oath and signed the papers at the St. Francis Xavier church this early morning. Family and close friends (about 50 pax) were there to witness this joyous and memorable moments. Later, everybody adjourned to Lotus Restaurant at Jalan Gasing for brunch.

Before leaving teh Registrar's room, we shook hands with the registrar and wished him “Thank you.

Watching us, Champion waited for his turn too. He stretched out his hand and waited.. The Registrar didn't see that Champion was waiting for his turn. MIL carried his hand a bit higher and the Registrar noticed.. He told Champion, “I’m sorry, boy. I didn’t see you..” and shook hands with him.

Then, he looked at us, “Most of the time, only adults shake hands. I don't have little boys waiting to shake hands with me... He is very clever.” Champion not understanding what the conversation was about, humbly walked out the room.

Later, a relative of the in-laws asked me, “Is this the little boy who was dancing during the engagement?” “Yes” I answered him. “He is very matured and intelligent boy.” Proudly, I smiled and thanked him.

That’s my boy!

Hee hee.. so cute..

My gynae has the habit of shaking our hands before we leave his clinic. Zara too would want to shake his hand like us, normally, just waving bye bye is enough, but with the gynae, she just wanted to follow what the adults do.

They are so cute aren't they?
