And then we observed a father smiling indulgently and patiently, sitting and watching his little girl as she took her time to select the postcards, painstakingly write the message and excitedly hunt for the most colourful stamps to send her aunt in the States (which means thrice the number of pretty stamps that one gets to pick as against an Indian post!).
She kept pestering him till he finally managed to find the required address for her. One could see that he was actually enjoying the whole process as much as his daughter was!
