All in a Saturday in Hyderabad



Smile Liam!



Tara said one night recently, "We have one son with a beautiful mind, one with a beautiful heart, and one with a beautiful face." Now, as parents, we feel that they are all sufficiently interchangeable. But we'll let you guess which one applies mostly to this little guy.



Now our fourth son, Ashoka, is on board. He's a great little guy.





Some pics of the woman sweeping around a steam roller working on the road outside of our house. I had Aidan pose for a faux photo so I could get these snaps, so as not to appear rude.



Jonah was a bit sick, but his visitors still came over.



They came bearing bagles, freshly made by a Swiss banker.




Early in the evening, some devotees adorning a statue in the neighborhood.







Then, after a *great* dinner party, we were walking home and happened upon the altar for the latest Hindu festival, Dussera. This is Lakshmi, goddess of many things - largely synonymous with money and wealth. Tara is checking out a shattered coconut at the base of the statue.
