May was a month of many firsts... For starters, it didn't feel like summer at all as occasional spells of rain mostly kept the temperatures bearable. In fact May was so cool that it mimicked the spring weather of March. Even the blossoms got confused, with lilies and chrysanthemums blooming together in our front lawn!
The pleasant weather also brought back the sunbirds. One fine morning they returned to the nest, repaired it, and refocused on their original plans of starting a family. So far, so good.... the birds are still active at the time of writing this post.
The daughter surprised everyone with her superb scores in the school-leaving exams. And then we turned adversity (daughter's entrance exam centre at the other end of Delhi) into opportunity (as a morning slot ensured we'd be free early), and gallivanted around town to some of our favourite places.
The quacking ducks and their fuzzy yellow chicks stole our hearts, of course! As we relieved some precious moments from the past...
All in all, a pleasant month full of good memories.
