March 2. I was in the study at 7 to lay out the yoga mats and gave Button a tight hug.

When I went back later to the study, he came to me with a sad face and declared—

“You haven’t hugged me this morning!”

“Button, I hugged you when I came in this morning to make provisions for our yoga class. Now, don’t lie. If you want one more cuddle, just ask and I’ll give it to you willingly but don’t tell me I didn’t hug you this morning. I can see that naughty grin on your face which suggests that you’re fishing for some more.”

“You’re too smart. Just wanted to fool you into giving me another bear hug.”

“Come here. And what did you think of the movie, The 3 Idiots? Did you see it from beginning till end?”

“It was very entertaining but the way the movie fared at the box office seems somewhat unreal. It’s worth a watch but I know of people who have gone and seen the film 3-4 times. Maybe more! That’s what made the movie such a huge hit.”
