Ishan speaks a combination of Marathi-Hindi-English now. Many a times he uses feminine verbs in Hindi e.g. "karati hun", "likhati hun" etc. I correct and tell him the muscular form that he should use "Karta hun", "likhata hun". I told him that boys speak "karata hun" while girls say "karati hun".
these days his school is practicing dance on the song "Lungi dance" for annual function. he has listend to that song atleast a hundred time so far. The other day when I was also enjoying with him the song and was singing I said a line of the song "Rokega mujhko kaun aur kayko"
Immediately he told me "Mamma, are you a boy? No na, then you should say "Rokegi mujhko kaun aur kayko"! If you are a boy only then you should say "Rokega mujhko kaun aur kayko"!! I was completely surprised to see him applying the language rules for the song!

21-Jan-2014 Ishan was playing office-office using a briefcase like folder. I asked him, where is your office, which company? he thinks for few seconds and replies "Bachpan Infosys" :) Bachpan his school name and Infosys my company name! :)

Ishan had Elbow joint dislocation

18th Jan 2014 In the morning first thing Ishan went to Ajoba's place and started his demands. He wanted Ajoba to come down and play with him. He did not even have his milk. Ajoba said - Ishan we will go later to which he replied by pulling Ajoba's hand with as much force as he could. Result was he felt pain in his right hand. He complained about it and came to me. I thought he must have pulled his muscles and hence applied Iodex and used hot water bad. Still, even little movement of the hand was painful for him hence I made a sling of my stole and tied his hand. This gave him little comfort.
in the afternoon situation was same and he still complained about the same pain. Hence we took him to the pediatrician, she told us that its elbow dislocation and many children suffer from it. Even it happens when taking out the clothes. She referred us to an orthopedic doctor and prescribed Ibujesic for Ishan for pain relief.
we could get the appointment with orthopedic surgeon on the same day and he took Ishan's hand in his hand. He asked Ishan 'whats your name', and he moved his finger on forearm and said now the joint has been fixed!!
we could not believe this as we had expected lot of trouble while this is being done, had seen some videos on the Internet and seen how painful it is for babies. Still Dr Medhekar(Aundh, Pune) had done the magic in less than 5 seconds! Before Ishan could realize he was being checked, he was cured. Doctor suggested us to take him outside for 5 mins and let him start using his hand. And so it happened. Slowly he started pointing towards moon and trying to reach for the Pen! I was much relieved and suddenly the tension disappeared!
