When it all began .........

Well... it all began with a Big Bang isn't it? I dunno how I want to begin this or how the idea came to me, but I wanted it to be there somewhere recorded. Mom and Dad would definitively be there to tell me a lot of stories of me when am old. But I wanted to remember every single detail and as Pappai ( I call my Dad Pappai - rhymes with Chettai or older brother, my dad's second best person in this whole world after his mom ) said 'May be that will help him attach to his parents  more than anything else' (my dad being the one person who fears the most that I will wander away from him when am old enough ). 

So then, here begins my journey. Its a little late as I have already grown into a toddler- the name given to me as soon as I turned two. Today on the 20th of October, I am officially 2 years, 3 months and 2 days old (guessed my birthday did you ? ) But doesn't matter. I will add the old incidents as its appropriate. My name is Nigel Satheesh. A different name isn't it ? Amma says she used to love love this fashion model cum judge in a fashion show she used to watch by the name Nigel Barker. And so after toiling around the internet for almost months and writing off all the other names, my parents settled on Nigel much to the surprise of many back in Kerala simply because they never heard of it before or may be because they did not know how to pronounce it. But I guess my name is Kunjhu- that's what Amma, Paai and everyone else calls me. I do hear this name Nigel and I turn back just to see what they all are calling!!
