Overhearing a dialogue in Hindi:

Agu: Mama is that Spanish?
Me: No baby, it’s Hindi

Those Little Acts of Love!

We were the kind of couple who unintentionally had a frown on our faces when our co passenger had a baby, used to opt for a table far away from a family just because they had a baby, dreaded when there was a kid near us at the movie theatre, all because of the fact that we had always associated baby to "miniature humans who cry for no reason". Now that we are parents, we know exactly how it is, when your little one throws a tantrum and I know I owe a huge apology to a lot of mothers out there for those stares I have showered upon them at various instances, trust me I was completely oblivious at that time. So here are a few strangers who taught me the small acts of love. Travelling alone with my baby: The lady on the flight who played peekaboo with my 14 month old son when he was bored during our 45 min journey to our native.

This boy was 51 cms when he was born, still sleeps on my tummy like a baby, runs to me for a hug when he's upset because of which I have forgotten that he has grown to a good 99 cms now. No no I'm not getting emotional now...damn!

The Long Awaited Me-Time

So I realise my toddler is pissed with me for some reason as he was intentionally walking past me fifteen times trying hard not to make eye contact. My first thought was "Finally I'm going to get some me-time ..yaay!!" After about 5 minutes, I was not able to handle the ignorance any more and there I was begging on my knees to get his attention (as if my lover just dumped me for another woman). This is what motherhood is all about, you crave for me-time all the while and when you finally get it, you have no clue what to do with yourself 😁
