The title of this
post could also be - next part of “The moment”…
My friends were
asking, why I am not continuing with my blog, why there are no posts. Well,
apart from the time constraint, it is also to do with the single track mind
state…. why single track? Read on….
She came into the
world, after a long wait - 5 days after due date. Guess, she was quite well
settled inside and had no plans to come out!! It was another great moment when
I saw her first time… when I forgot all the pains I went thru labor. Life was
thrilled, but different, difficult and very new. There was learning all single
day, each single moment. Though all possible situations with babies are
available over internet and we “googled” most of them by then, but still we
realized the small tiny life was the best teacher. Sometime in middle of night
her colic used to upset us or sometime we felt helpless when we did not know
why she is crying…
And then she grew
and we grew too as parents. Life shifted from proactive nappy change and feeding
to something more reactive and demanding. Life started revolving around her.
It’s her building blocks, her crayons, her dolls, her TV shows, her rhymes,
her, her and her... and we seemed never got tired of it. We have less and less
time left for us. She does not allow us to complete any discussion. She wants
to be the part of our each moment. A single utter of pain, and she showers all
her love and kisses. She even cheers up us for anything we do. She comforts us
by saying “chinta maat karo mamma, sab
theek hoga” < don’t worry mom, everything will be fine>
But we know this
phase will pass soon, she will grow up, she will have her own world, friends.
She will not search the nook of my arm to rest herself…
She gave us all
the happiness and bliss that any parent can ask for...we only pray to God that
she gives us more reasons to live, every single day...we love you
very nicely written...and so true for all of us...
