Hello world...

After more than a year of lurking around and reading other people's blogs, I've finally overcome my resistance to them as just another form of personal preening. In short, I am now ready do my own personal preening! But it's for a good cause.

I have been looking for ways to share news and photos about us with friends and family in a more efficient way than via email with attached photos. Some of you have been dragged to photo sites such as Ofoto or Shutterfly to have a look at the photos I post there. But no text is possible there.

Now that Picasa - a handy image/photo management tool- has teamed with Blogspot to provide an easy way to post photos and captions on to blogs, I think it's time to test the waters.

So here I am in an attempt to keep you all updated about the things we are up to here and to post photos, mainly of Saira so you can also see her grow up.

This may also serve as a project for Saira to start learning about the Web and perhaps start adding her own posts every now and then....

Please do leave your comments for us to mull over.
