Story time

Lately you have been fighting with Darsh a lot and I wanted to tell you the importance of staying together. so I narrated this story.

एक  था आरुष दादा , एक  थी गीत  और एक  था दर्श . एक  बार तीन  कहीं घूमने गए। रस्ते में उन्हें एक  जंगल  मिला . तीनो डर  गए . आरुष  दादा ने बोला की अगर हम  तीनो साथ  में  रहएंगे तो ठीक  रहेगा.  कोई मुसीबत आने पे हम  एक दुसरे की मदद कर सकते हैं .  तीनो साथ  में जंगले पार करने लगे. तभी एक मोटा सा सआंप आया , उसका मन  ललचाया की वो इन  तीनो बच्चों को खा जाये. लेकिन  उसने देखा की तीनो एक साथ हैं , हाथ भी पकड़ा है तो वो डर गया और वहां से चला गया। 

थोडा आगे जाने के बाद गीत  को एक  अच्छी चीज  मिली, उसने उठा ली और अपने पास  रख ली। दर्श  ने ये देखा और उसने भी वो चीज़  गीत  से लेनी चाही . गीत को गुस्सा आया और उन  दोनों की लड़ाई हो गयी। आरुष दादा ने ये देखा तो रोकने की कोशिश  करी, दर्श  और गीत  उससे भी लड़ने लगे. 
तभी वहां से एक भालू निकला उसने देखा सब लोग लड़ाई कर रहे हैं और अलग अलग हैं इसलिए  वो धीरे से आया और दर्श  को ले गया और  दर्श  को खा गया . थोड़ी देर  के बाद गीत  को भी खा गया ये देख  कर आरुष  दादा डर  गया और भागने लगा. भागते भागते  एक  मंदिर  मिला, वो जल्दी से  मंदिर   के अंदर गया और दरवाजा बंद कर   लिया. उसने भगवान्  से प्रार्थना की गीत और दर्श  को वापिस  लाने के लिए . भगवान् ने  कहा वो दोनों अपनी  गलती की  सजा पा रहे हैं मै उन्हें वापिस नहीं ला सकता . आरुष दादा ने भगवन से बोला की अब  हम लोग कभी भी नहीं लड़ेंगे. आप  हमारी हेल्प कर दो। भगवान् को उस पैर दया आ  गयी और भगवान् ने भालू के पेट से निकाल  कर गीत  और दर्श  को जिन्दा कर   दिया.  तीनो ने फिर कब्भी न लड़ने का वादा किया .


The very fact that I made up the story while narrating it and I did that in Marathi made me aware of my creative abilities.

Princess, you really bring out the best in me.

Mother's Day

It was the first Mother's day I ever celebrated.

To start with, we were together every minute of the day.

First time I did few exercises of an activity book with you and thoroughly enjoyed it.
Had so much fun playing hide and seek in hotel lobby.
Indulged ourselves with lunch @ hotel only.

Sang a lot of rhymes and danced on old songs like aaj, kal tere mere pyar ke charche and o haseena julfoon wali.

Slept while you played blocks without disturbing me and smiled when you finally slept with your head on my shoulder trying to tickle me.

You made me feel very special by denying to share me with anyone. Not even with Arush dada, though you enjoy with him very much.

Thank you Princess!
I am enjoying every bit of motherhood because of you.

Mummy and Princess Day out

Reunion with Mumma after a long 12 days resulted in Mumma singing "gali mein aaj chand niklaa" and the party began.

Saturday evening we came back to Mumma's hotel. You were very smart to acknowledge that the place was new and nearer to Kaku's home. You liked the hotel since the room is bigger.

I was happy to see that you liked all the shopping I did for you. You especially loved the teddy bear sleeping suit.

Sunday started on a very happy note, with both of us giggling over small things like teeth brush.
We had nice laid back , lavish breakfast of favourite doughnut and idli.

After that we played on pool side, you had fun playing on the side of pool.

After that we went out for shopping for Aarush dada's birthday. We bought a Ben10 watch for dada. You asked for a barbie doll watch but when I told you it is for the birthday boy you nicely accepted that. we bought a new set of blocks for you and new swimming costume. Lunch was at Mac D with Icecream. You had running nose when we came back. I got scolded by you : " Kasala Icecream dili mala, mala ? " Why did you give me icecream?' :):)

Evening we had a blast in swimming pool, had dinner at an Udipi restaurant and slept while playing with new blocks.

Princess, these lovely days spent with you are like oasis which are keeping me going and giving me strength to finish this difficult journey.
