New year Gifts to my family

Ever imagined, how all the slang used by you turn into well spoken respectful words once you become parents. There is a huge responsibility on your shoulders for raising a well behaved child. All those horrible words you once used during your school/college days just vanish one by one as you enter the sequences of dating, marriage and parenting. Now you have an eagle's eye on your words and actions. Dare you do any shortcut action in-front of your child, be ready to see him/her repeat it at the very same moment. Kids have such a sharp, creative, high grasping capacity to learn things instantly. And as said bad things are easier to learn than good ones. Like its so difficult to teach the child to do 'namastey' , but damn easy to behave as spoiled brats.

Lot many posts in need of making their way to the blog , but this all festive season of Diwali making me so lazy to write anything. Apart from laziness two more reasons for the delay..firstly kiddo not allowing me to get my 'me' time, and secondly due to this absence of me time, the laptop,words, and thoughts are at a distance. Just in case if I would have a large reader audience ( big dream as of now ;) ) they would have poked me day and night forcing me to break the spell of idleness. Favorably, here I am free with my will to post whatever and whenever.
Have many updates about kiddo, my awesome vacation to 'Goa', and the festival Diwali celebrations.  
Umm...let me start with the first flight journey of kiddo. We were quite apprehensive about her travel. Scrapping all our fears, she is such a darling. She not only enjoyed the whole journey, but also took her nap, ate her food, and read the flight magazine ( showed mercy for not tearing it). All time she carried her teddy bear with herself. No one can take it away from her for a minute even. The checkin times where we had to put the teddy for check was such a restless period for her, she kept on searching her bear till she saw it coming out of the check. KIDS :D
What should I order mumma :)


She enjoyed every bit of our Goa trip. Even got drenched with all of us in the sea waves, waded in the Arvalem waterfall waters, and the most wonderful part is, she enjoyed the trip. No fuss, no dramas...all smiles :)


After the trip, she has many changes in her. She now started speaking words like:

uncle, auntie, ma'm, maami, naani,pink, purple, white, blue...to be precise not only she say blue, but she also identifies the blue color.She enact the hand movements for the rhymes like 'Itsy Bitsy Spider' , 'Johnny Johnny Yes Papa', 'Papa finger Papa finger where are you', 'Where is thumbkin'. Also now she is able to speak her name as 'Pa', school as 'koo' :)
And last but not the least, she has started dancing very well. As soon as she hears music, she starts dance movements. Its so beautiful to watch the kiddo making dance postures. She needs a professional training to encourage her dancing interests. Once she gets to speaking full fledge, I have thought of getting her registered to classical dancing classes.

 Everyone is having their own lifestyle, daily routine, and priorities....in between all of this its really hard to find space for yourself and you. How difficult it is at times to communicate what you want from someone. Everything is so like perfect, so comfortable and merry, then why is it so difficult to find inner peace and solace. May be change is the need of time !!
Ever happened with you....So many thoughts are dancing, screaming, and whispering in your head, when you wanted to pen them down, you are just blank...literally blank...Just a minute before thoughts were making you restless to get spilled out, but right in this moment,all vanished. Is it lack of concentration, randomness of the thoughts, or just a matter of time. Whatever the reason is, but at this moment I am sitting here clueless about all those thoughts and whispers.
Sometimes a small hug is the most you need to feel wanted, comforted, secure, loved, admired , adored.
Sometimes just few loving, caring words can brighten your day.
Sometimes, all you need is a feeling of being loved.
Sometimes all you want to hear is 'I love you' to get refreshed.
Sometimes all that you need is the precious 'WE'.

PS: Randomly random post.

Each passing day is so much fun to watch the kido. Don't know is it 2 yrs mark or the vacation in Goa, which has changed the kido's school going routine. Touch-wood, now she doesn't cry even a bit while leaving her in the school , instead she gets ready with great enthusiasm, walk some of the distance on the way ( the school is at a walk-able distance from our residence), pluck one of the flowers from the park on the way for her ma'm. On reaching the gate, she asks me to put her bag and bottle on the shoulders. Having put on, she runs a check for her school bag, water bottle, and handkerchief, along with the flower. Making sure everything is in place, she walks innocently and happily to her favorite ma'm's office. She allows only her ma'm to take off her bag, and water bottle, and gets seated comfortably on the chair....Watching all this scenario, rushes mixed feeling of pride, love, and admiration for my little kido.

Day be day she is getting open up to the kids and the teachers there in the playschool, showing off her naughtiness to all :D
Now even her ma'm says she is so naughty :P .It feels great when I hear this, as I have seen how she use to cry and just cry, which made me feel guilty deep within about if I had started her schooling much before time.Those 15 days were really hard on me, battling between my thoughts of whether stop her schooling or to continue. Thanks to her ma'm , the lady is really awesome teacher who gave her full attention to my kid, she is the only person out of family to get close and comfortable to pari. The factor that she also has a 2.5 year old kid adds her skills to handle the kids.

The increasing naughtiness of kido has now included sharing lunchbox with other kids.Her today's behavior made all of us smile and laugh to our hearts. She picked every kids lunch box from the class and ran to her ma'm. She was not interested in her lunch box today, and shared a aloo paratha from other kid's lunch box. After having it, started with her tifin. At times, she picked someone's water bottle, or cap, or colours, and so on, just like a little monkey running all over. This is the first time she did so much movement in the school and got involved with the kids.
And yeah from now on, for almost a week she will need a Aloo paratha in her lunchbox !!
