Life with a Toddler :)

So Mr. Husband tries to motivate you showing the new Nike ad, you see Deepika Padukone and other ladies sweating out and thinks "what on earth am I doing with my life?!" and gets all geared up to hit the gym next morning. You jump up to switch off the alarm so that you don't wake up your toddler, sneaks out of bed, tip toes to the bathroom and thinks "yaay finally I'm doing it today!". While you brush your teeth you feel there's someone standing behind you, with a chill down your spine you turn around to see a smiling face calling out MAMA! And you are like "oh no, not again" ! :D Makes up my mind and ends up with another day that starts with my usual cup of coffee.

Monsters in Disguise

Here I am, still shaking at the news about the 7 year old girl in Chennai. I cannot sleep, I am scared and deeply worried about every kid out there, those innocent minds who have no clue about the cruel world around them.

He gets equally excited being at a book store or a toy shop and he loves to choose his books (he is always given the freedom to select things he love 😃). From the time I remember of my childhood, we had a library membership and we used to look forward to holidays so we could go exchange our books and get new ones, the smell of a new book still brings me so much joy..and yes I ended up taking up Engineering and Clinical Research! (Damn! Okay let's not vent about it here 😁). After becoming a mother I was so busy reading parenting articles and baby recipes, I really lost touch with my books. So last year I decided I have to squeeze in some time for reading and finally found the slot during Agu's afternoon naptime. So there are days when I wait for him to fall asleep so I can spend that precious
