My little girl won a second prize in Flower Arrangement Contest in her school. She is very excited. So am I. I didn't know she had this talent in her. This is her prize winning flower arrangement. She has named it STEPS TO SUCCESS with input from her Nani.
She is submitting a very very short story to her school tomorrow. The theme is Girl Child. And this is her entry for the competition.
The idea, plot, characters are all hers. She made a handwritten draft and sat with me while I typed it out. I suggested a few minor changes and a few grammatical alterations. She graciously accepted them.
My Desired One never fails to amaze me.

Absolutely fabulous!! I dont have enough words to express the flow of emotions I am feeling right now. I am proud of her and jealous of you for being a mom of such a great talented girl.
Congratulations to the lil one !!!
as they say, daughters are God's best blessings !!!
Fabulous! Both the arrangement and the story...you must be so, so , so proud of your desired one!! Hugs to her..
Btw her arrangeent took me back to old times..we would paint these leaves in silver (mix in a bucket of water and dip the leaves for good 10 minutes) and then join the edges to make a curve as in, ox-bow shape and tie with a string and then arrange tuberoses and carnations!!
whew..too long.sorry couldn`t resist giving gyaan ;-)
You must be one proud mom!
She is a great great writer-I loved the emotional story-beautiful...Her thoughts rae so pure
Congrats Rasan-you deserve every accolade you have got!
Mampi your daughter is a genius! I am very impressed :)

You have an amazing daughter, her story is excellent, and the flower arrangement is stunning in its elegance and simplicity.
Mampi, its an awesome story. Keep encouraging her to write. She's brilliant
Manpreet and Mahesh, your daughter is not only a good writer but also a very good human being. God bless her.
Congratulations to little Rasan :) Love the arrangement and also the name, Steps to success :)
Let me read the entry now ...
She is a wonderful child. :)
What a beautiful arrangement!
LifeBegins-Jealous? You have a talented P coming up soon.
MySpace-Yeah, I know, it was her first step into this art. She saw this arrangement in a shop and tried to make it herself. Rest of the stuff, she will learn. I will most likely get in touch with you about other ideas too. I m not very good at this stuff.
Mithe-yeah, I am really really proud to be her mom.
DeeplyDip-will pick up the tag. Thanks for your compliments.
Dipali-Thank you so much my dear.
