July started with a jolt. On the 4th our vehicle was broken into and my purse was stolen at Umstead Park while we were hiking with our friends. Valuables, lot of cash (I usually don't carry more than $$ but we had just returned from Bahamas and I had not put our cash that we carried on vacation back in the bank yet), several hundred $$$ in gift cards, credit cards, insurance cards, kids identity cards , cheque book, my iPhone and several other things were gone. But what was also lost- a sense of security and trust ! Hard to replace ! We filed the report, did our due diligence to control the situation, recovered nothing and have put the incident behind us.
July was mostly spent at the pool, a weekend at Charlotte celebrating independence day and enjoying fire-works, doing Apple-camp at South Point store where Avi and Neev had fun creating iBooks, having play-dates, a fun BBQ picnic and swim at Jordon Lake with Shakha friends on 27th, dance practices for Dream-Act's upcoming show and Durham Bulls opening act dance rehearsals.
Dream ACT Entertainment is Triangle based production house and is coming up with a Bollywood Musical, first of its kind in our area. They held auditions in March and I gave it a shot. Its a wonderful experience being part of great team that they have put together. The show is titled as 'Love- Connection- Confusion' and will be on October 4th and 5th at Fletcher Opera Theater, Raleigh. The team is also invited by Durham Bulls to perform before their big game on August 17th. Even though my weekends are packed with rehearsals, I am having a lot of fun reviving my old hobby of dancing.
July also saw Neev losing his first baby tooth on 29th. He is so excited and even though I love his gap tooth smile, parting with all babyish things is not as much fun as I earlier thought. Avi has discovered that Mom is 'Bhagwan Ji' on Holi and Diwali, 'Santa' on Christmas and also the 'tooth fairy'. Tonight he told me that he has known since Holi when he found a 'printed letter from Bhagwan Ji' along with his Holi gift. He said there was no way Bhagwan Ji could use MS Word and it was Mommy who typed it on computer so he could not recognize my hand-writing. My children are growing up but I don't have to like everything about it, Do I ?
