Sammy turns 3......

22- Sep-2014

My lil one is 3 yr old! Like all mothers, I started my day with the nostalgia; The anticipation during 3^rd trimester enjoying the big fat belly and all the eating ; Finally the pains, to the eagerness of what was awaiting ahead of us, the labor and then the lil Sammy in our lives....Holding my lil one was all it required for me to expunge what life had been before this? Really, I have no flow of it anymore….

In the past year, in the midst of my son learning to talk 2 different languages and struggling with one more, his pre-school learning’s and new tricks and games, unlimited energy to run , question things, explain us those imaginary and his stories, I have started to enjoy every bit of new-fangled phase and at the same time I have lost the ability to tolerate and stay calm, to an extent I get petrified when am I gonna just burst out or am just being Fatuous ? Maybe yes, Maybe No…Its that phase where am smiling at one moment and almost in tears next, throwing tantrums just like Sammy….

My major part of day / current phase of life is all about Sammy and his growing up….Its the tiny outings with my friends and H, family that I relish and fancy!

Well, the bday boy wore his new tee and shorts to school, his glee when he took those chocolates to share with his frens! His sweet innocent “Thank you”, when  someone wished him Happy bday was a treat for me personally….My parents visited us in the evening and then we were off to JWM for dinner which just made my day (our) fun to conclude…Food and Ambience was what alleviated me and what a perfect way to say cheers to the bday boy!!!!

Celebrations.....

We all jammed up at Ulsoorpet this morning, reason being its "Paksha masa", a tradition followed by Brahmin community to take blessing of the 3 generation who are no more, by giving tarpana.....You perform a ceremony to bring them in today and take their blessings and enjoy a sumptuous meal post that which includes my Fav Uddina Vada ( home made, simply YUM!!!!!).

Its definetely a look-forward day since my lil one gets to play with his cousins and let me free, while I get to tee-e tee with the women folk and take a look at cooking and rest of stuff....

We also celebrated Sammy's bday, who turns 8. Something unplanned yet a lovely time with the family!!!!

Looking forward for next week.....

Sooper Saturday !!!

Its one of the rare days, where the kitchen is not clamped and am not running around aimlessly giving bath to my son and helping MiL at the kitchen, at times wondering what should I really be doing????

 Its the mess which is deleted today and for a change started off as a nice, early-lazy-warm Saturday.....

Sipped tea in peace, while Sam ran around the house asking questions and trying to open up the fridge ( his fav this week) and searching for ice cream stock.....plan for first half of day is breakfast at hotel and hair cut for sammy boy; both turned out to be very rejuvenating for me....Sammy also gulped his breakfast without making a fuss, while we relished out hot dily-vada combo at Bugle rock grounds with friends....Its the most feel to just sit and eat; with nothing at back of mind, without having to worry to rush back home and to kitchen!!!! Its just this simple start I crave for, missing every inch in my routine.....

I will be off to RRnagar to meet my sis and Ani, we will be sending our evening together,might cook or just decide to sit and be served for dinner !!!!

Finished reading the long pending sidney's " tides of memory"...

More books pending for this month....

A very special month for us... loads of plan, trip planned, shopping in wishlist....looking forward!!!!!

Me and Sammy Boy!!!!

I want to start writing again....
Its not easy since I have too many things that has happened in last few years and wish I had the time to pen down all the events....
Its really been a roller coaster ride, Mixed with enormous happiness, regrets, sad, cried for silly things, hyper activities which never existed before, questions , a routine....liike we have formed our own sweet world together - With my lil one....

He will soon be 3 yr old and its quite surprising how fast time has flown, felt me with little time to sit and analyse hows it really been all the way.

As I write this post, my son is in real pain, since he has caught some infection and has mouth ulcers..Its BAD! he cries in pain and it HURTS like hell for me...I can hardly remember when my son cried in pain last; since he is someone who doesnt sulk easily...UNLIKE me, who likes to be unhappy and have started liking it ..now thats a different story!

few things about us.....
> we have a routine together.....Am always with my son; never leaving him wherever I go and he is very much a part of everything I do....he needs me when he wakes up and to go back to bed...He needs me to feed him still and to drop him school...

> I want to be a hermetic ( in right sense) , and do things which is good for him and pour in lot of knowledge and disciple .....I keep reminding myself that there should be a purpose for having me quit my job and the sense of feeling is growing so strong as I see my son grow tall!

> School admission is a priority and wish he gets into one of the good schools. Now, I realy think whats it with Good school? I only want my son to understand that there can be no short cut for studies / academics so my No.1 priority would be installing that pleasure of understanding that and crave for knowledge....Thirst to know more and do well in the formative years.No.2 would be sports , wanna see him enjoy a sport...Means the school needs to have a good campus / a playground. No.3 the crowd needs to be Elite, since he gets his friends from here.....

More in my next post......
