Aarush's First Technical Endeavour

Aarush is 6 months and 2 days old today. From last few days he has started showing his interest in my laptop. Whenever he sees the laptop he tries his best to come near to it and starts pushing all its keys. I have bought an optical mouse recently which is a kind of transparent and appears very bright and colourful when plugged into the laptop. So instead of giving him the freedom on laptop I have given the mouse to play. He attempted all his stunts with the mouse like taking its different parts into his mouth, beating the mouse with his hands, pulling its wire and so on. I was watching television and so I was not noticing what’s going on the laptop as the end result. Finally when I have taken the mouse back from Aarush, I saw a new toolbar created on my desktop. The toolbar is for a shortcut of a folder I have placed on the desktop and the toolbar is displayed on the top of the desktop window horizontally with all the folders of the root folder listed side by side. At first sight, I thought he has done something wrong or changed some settings as I had not used such feature of Windows before. When I debugged to know what he exactly did both I and my wife were surprised. I know it does not indicate that Aarush is a genius or he is a wiz-kid, but being a father it felt really great. Hence I want to save this memory and hope google allows me to keep this page live till Aarush grows old enough to understand it.

These are few moments where parents fight to claim, “Aakhir beta kiska hai!”
