This conversation happened between the Second Born and me a while back (in September), and at the time I had shared it as an update on Facebook.

Second Born: Amma, which iPhone do you have?
Me: Why the query? Are you going to buy me a new one? 🤨
Second Born: Haha! Why should I? It’s your other son who is the Apple Guy, remember?
Me: Yeah. You have a point. But why did you ask me about my phone? 🤔
Second Born: Your Grand Canyon photo was looking awesome. I wondered if you got a new phone.
Me: No, no. It’s clicked with my present phone. But, tell me… which particular photo are you talking about?!!
Secone Born: All of them actually. They ALL look good.
Me: (speechless and grinning from ear to ear) 😀
Second Born: Anyway in your case the phone doesn’t really matter, the photos you take always come out well!
Me: Aww…
(That’s enough praise for now …till the end of 2024 at least. If anyone has more to add, please wait till 2025!)

It is always a heady feeling to be praised by your children, isn’t it? Hence the share here too.

That reminds me, I haven’t yet written about my Grand Canyon experience or shared the photos. Soon, very soon, I promise. Here’s a teaser, until then.
