I am a lucky man

I must say I have a wonderful family. My wife is an electrical engineer from an era when women engineers were few and far between. She is beautiful, smart, and caring. She loves flowers and she has a collection of pretty African violets. Here is her Christmas cactus in bloom.






However, my wife and I are empty nesters. Our older daughter is a Ph.D. candidate at Stanford University and loves outdoors. Here she is getting ready for the swimming leg of a triathlon in the bay at the Treasure Island near San Francisco, California.



Here is our older daughter at her boy friend's graduation from Harvard Law School. He is currently teaching law, loves outdoors, and is into Ultimate Frisbee. This promising young man has become an integral part of our family.






Our younger daughter graduated from Princeton University and is currently in Tokyo on a two-year fellowship attending the International Christian University. She loves dancing. The picture on the right shows her (center) in an Indian classical dance group that she had started with a few other friends at Princeton. She is also into singing, juggling, and art. She along with her Princeton Chapel Choir group performed at the Carnegie Hall earlier this year. Her blog site (Love in Tokyo: bibhatsu.blogspot.com) is Bibhatsu, another name of Arjuna (friend of Lord Krishna) of the epic war story, the Mahabharata.





Obviously, our family is not complete without Tigger, the seniormost member of the family. He is adorable.


Am I lucky or what!
