THEIR CHILDREN'S VOICE...

"My name is Vijayalakshmi. I am 7 years old. I study in 2nd standard.
I have an older sister Jothilakshmi and a younger brother Anand.
We go to school together. I love playing pranks on both of them. You
know what else I like ? I love going to the beach with my father. His
name is Kannan and he is a fish vendor. Every morning we go on his
cycle to collect some fish. I keep playing in the sand until my father
starts scolding me that I'm late for school. I have many friends in school
and learn a lot there, but the minute the bell rings I rush home. I go
straight to our shop where my mother sells fish. Her name is Lalitha.
I have learnt a lot about fish from her. We have a lot of fun guessing
what the next customer is going to buy. Sometimes when some
customers yell at her it's scary, but I don't see her bowing down. I think
she is a strong woman and I want to just like her when I grow up.
Sometimes my mother's friends from the locality come to chat with her.
It's nice to see them laughing and having fun together. My mother says
that they all belong to one group and get help from a company Asirvad.
I don't know too many details about the company but I know how happy
my mother is when she is doing what she likes."
