Humpty Dumpty had a great fall….

On the second floor of a supermarket, in view of around 30-35 people, while chasing her little one who gets hyper excited on seeing an elevator door open and dashing just in time to save her from getting hurt!!

an intelligent mind who knows exactly what ticks you off
a typical girl who loves her (and her mom’s) creams, hairbands, clips, bags, etc..

My baby is growing up..

(Random thoughts put together)
I am happy and proud.
From an underweight baby to a hyperactive toddler, she has come a long way.

She waves ‘Good Bye’ with a [...]

Motherhood lesson# 232

Learn to eat your own words.
There was a time when I was sure that I would never send Diya to a playschool as I thought it was just another rich man(woman)’s way of shrugging off parental responsibilities. I also believed that the initial lessons should always be given by the parents. And I was sure [...]

- for letting me complete my graduation (I had my own share of troubles and mindblocks)
- for all the moments of joy and happiness. For letting me [...]

All captured in this one picture.
Reflected in the beautiful eyes.
Giving me reason to smile in the [...]

And this happening not once or twice but so many times over that you just can’t help but laugh along!!!!!!!!!!!!
(Diya does it so very often these days. She would cry for something – like asking for a forbidden article. To soothe and [...]
