Gobu Aloni’s Anna Prashan 1995 Philadelphia

 

We went to Philadelphia to celebrate Gobu’s Anna Prashan, Sangeeta was 6 months pregnant with Kannu at that time so we were learning as well. Click here for the slideshow for bigger resolutions

Another view of him getting a bath.

Gobu’s Anno Prashon. He wasnt impressed with what his mama was feeding him. I dont remember what he really selected out of the plate either.

Mummum Death 1981

This was taken at the Rampur house on the terrace when mummum (grandmother, Nonibala Dasgupta) died in 1981. This was the “family home” for a long time, where Mummum and Pishi used to live, and then with Choto Kaku joining in on the first floor, it truly became the family home for a very long period of time.
