Pahi's first day of PRESCHOOL!

Dear Pahi,

You are 2.1 year old and already started schooling today. It was a big day for both of us  (for your dad as well I believe :)). The very thought of you entering the school crying was making me nervous from the first day we started school hunting. I expected few drops of tears from me too but was glad I could control it, thank God for this. It happened soo quick that there was no time for such dramas. And I am soo soo proud of you too for not crying in front of me or else I would have followed you then and there.

It was the first time we left you alone amidst strange faces, I know how you must have felt. But then this is how it goes. You need to face the world all by yourself sooner or later.But don't you worry Mumma and Papa will always be there for you just like the way we were there waiting outside until you showed up about an hour later today.

Frankly speaking I was a little unconvinced about starting school so early for you. Actually it was you dad who persuaded me to think about it. And I am glad we made the right decision at the right time. I dont want to over burden you with any kind of expectations but then there are a few of them that I would like to list down-

Firstly I would want you not to be dependent on anyone, ever. Dependency would never let you grow. I have experienced it. So,

one of few reasons for sending you to school is to help you limit the dependency that you have on me.

You are a bright kid (touch-wood) and I am very proud of this fact. You are too young to recite 5-6 rhymes, count from 1-20 or sing from A-Z but you do that and I am amazed at times.And, I would want you to keep amazing me all the times.

Also do not try to be someone else but be true to yourself always and you will  notice how beautiful it feels. Till now we have never ever compared you with any child and we promise not to do it ever. We love the way you are. We love everything about you- your tantrums as well :D (P.S If you can finish eating your food a lil early, you take 1 hour, baby)

Keep dreaming and keep chasing them until you get what you have dreamt. 

Still could not forget the day we brought you home for the first time from the hospital. Today while driving to school on the same road I again felt the tickle which I have experienced two years back.

And thank you so much for getting up early today and being such a sweetheart. I hope everyday will be a fun day for you at school

Waiting eagerly till the time you reply back. 
I love you Pahi.
Hugs and Kisses!

Until then,
Your Mumma

The other side of me!

Random thoughts floating, when everyone around me are having a good night sleep. I am just not in form these days. Something holding me back, don't know what. May be life has become monotonous...may be or may be not. I am not trying to find the answer as well. Sometimes I feel I have the whole world for myself and the other moment there is this feeling that tells me that I am just trying to hold myself back. 

I just read the above para and thought of deleting it...hahahahaha ...sounds like a 80 year old;s writing. Never mind.

Well the day was well spent- Playing with Pahi, cooking,coffee, movie and this and that. The sudden downpour took away all the fun of watching Pahi grooving to music with her dandiya stick. Yes, we could not make it to the garba today evening because of the showers. Grrrr.... for that.

Called a few of the school for admissions. Just could not believe that my lil girl is big enough for a school now.

Pahi needs me now. 

Ciao!

Finally! I am here again

Thinking quite for some tome to come back to this but then something comes up...err well I must admit that I have developed a laid back attitude. But I knew this is not going to hold me from returning back to my accidental love i.e WRITING. Yes, writing is something which I haven't thought in my wildest dream to come to me. But it happened. I will definitely narrate the incident in near future but not now :)

I started this blog to do some professional writing (out of pressure) so please excuse me if the previous entries are bothering. Then when the pressure (professional off course) shifted to something else I thought why not transom this into a personal diary. I did make one or two entries I suppose but then again the writer in me died as the focus was diverted towards a lot of other things.

So, now that I am a stay-at-home mom of a 2year old, I am having a burst of emotions and I don't think there can be a better platform then this to vent out the feelings inside me. 

I hereby promise to myself that I would not refrain from writing no matter what.

You will find me talking about Pahi (the lil angel in my life), PD (The hubby), daily happenings and of course food (cooking has become the latest addiction off late).

Feeling good now!
Ahhhhhh :D

Until next time,
Vandy
