“Without trying to be a preacher and without trying to teach me anything Manu, in his most innocent and selfless way, taught me the most important lesson of life—What matters is the people around us not out posessions.”

One thing Manu is really fond of is my phone. He usually doesn't get to play with it but when he does, his happiness is beyond something I can describe. Usually the phone is kept on a shelf above our TV. He climbs on the table and then reaches for the phone. If I don't stop him, he will pick it up with the broadest possible grin on his face. I have a flip phone and when it is opened or closed it makes a sound. Fascinated by the sound, he flips it open and close at an amazing rate. So fast that it sounds like a music loop. Then I'd tell him it is enough "Now put the phone back in the cover and give it to papa". Sometimes he would and sometimes I have to take it from his hand.
