Weekend Full of Masti...






This weekend was full of masti, fun and challenges…had to write about it…
All of us started it with a jigsaw puzzle of 100 pieces Jungle safari.. … Siddharth was looking at both mamma and papa … app kya kar rahe ho, then with the momentum catching up he also started to find the pieces and our team could put all the pieces together.. It was amazing to see it from top that it deserved a lovely picture..

Sunday morning was a visit to the Siddharth’s Dadu and Daddi’s house… he had the fun there with Sugar cane juice, litchi, mast aloo ka sabji, and mangoes…




There he got the interactive and educational game sent byChachu and Chachi from US (Thanks Piya) … when we opened, Siddharth was so excited that in few minutes we all were on the floor saying BINGO!! (A part of the game where if u completes one line you have to take ur arms out and say it)
In the night we discovered a young TT player in us, yes Siddharth.. at Mammu’s office nearby we went for TT play.. Leaving all of us in a shock stage Siddharth played very well and hit the ball for many no of times…
I was also able to manage a good game after many years but Siddharth was WOW!

Garmi Kee Chutiyaan …

Siddharth summer vocation started on 5th may…

Now a days there are so many hype for the summer camp, I don’t really believe into it.. I really wonder whether they are so useful yesterday morning during the walk around 6.30 I saw one mother dragging her child to the school bus for the summer camp… I felt pity on both …so early in the morning a child of age 3.5 years is woken up and send to the activities…

Thanks to my vocation, I am all the time available for Siddharth, and the amount of energy he is having i don’t need to any brain exercise.
I am sure Siddharth is enjoying his holidays with me, we have the fun all time from a shower bath in the morning at the park, juggling with the puzzle, making roti in the kitchen, playing with the sand in the evening and to the book reading in the night……

After looking at all the above funny pictures, it makes me sad that holidays for both us are vanishing very fast…and there is so much to do in next few days….


The woods are lovely, dark and deep,
But I have promises to keep,
And miles to go before I sleep,
And miles to go before I sleep.

Father’s day

There are advertisements all over the paper and in the news about Father’s day.

How can we dedicate only a single day to our Parents…. Will it be justice to dedicate only one day to show them how much we love…?

I feel proud of my parents… They make a vision of our success… and they have accomplished ….. Many bows to you Mummy Daddy….

My mom always wanted me to work so she took the responsibility of growing Siddharth with her so that I can work…It was not the responsibility she took, it was those initial challenges in growing Siddharth and never made me aware of a single hard thing they have faced during that time…

I could not get the job in my field for almost five months, they were in constant touch with me for any luck on job but never realized me that how fast they wanted that I should get back to work..

I was just thinking of the days, Daddy scolded me when i was not helping Mummy into her household work…. but that scolding gave me a power of never give up for anything…

I grew up in a very healthy and love filled home…. They provided me everything I needed at that time and the good reason for my unimportant wishes…

I love and respect them throughout my life for the simplicity and honesty they have given me in inheritance…

We all siblings started our journey from cycle to car… my younger brother was planning to buy a car now when i suggested him to call Daddy for the same, that’s one of the way you can celebrate with them…

I always believed into sharing small happiness with my parents… to make them happy and great……. Not waiting for this 3rd weak start day of the June .

I read somewhere that the only relationship on this earth not based on mutual benefit is the relationship with the parents…..

We love you Mummy Daddy!

Phone when mobile.......

Siddharth passed his urine on my mobile phone… Mobile phone was lying on the bed and he did it on the bed... The phone was dead along with all the data in it…

Few friends no i remembers by memory… When daddy came to know about this he told me not to buy a new handset as he has just blocked his phone.. i can use his handset..

The no in Dad’s phone was Punjab number, it almost took one month time to get it blocked and to shift my no on it…

This one month was more peaceful for me without the mobile, I never felt handicapped though people around me were bit annoyed, because at certain times they were unable to reach me…

Somehow i am not convinced of carrying mobile every time with me… there are benefits also but it is a nuisance when a credit card or a personal loan company calls you when i am in some important conversation with Siddharth, he is sleeping in the afternoon…..

Life was cool without any phones, i wish I could get back those days……

Noi Cutie Pie!!

Noi Baby ab baby se baba ho gaya hai… Most of the time he will lok at my dress and say mamma aap bade achee lag rahe ho... If i just smile back him he will say mamma thank you bolo....
If you are just sitting and doing nothing he will come to me and ask me in a concerned tone Mamma kya hua....
Yesterday evening I was upset about my car as I hit the it in the pillar while parking, there was so much of space but I was absent minded… I amnever like this.. I am careful about the things around me ….. That’s the reason which made me upset..

He came to me Mamma kya hua, aapko TV dekhne … I said no bachha I am just thning about the car… then he put his little hands over my shoulders and said, mein appe lye paani lata hoon.. he went to the kitchen and then came back.. Mamma aap aayo he holded my finger ….. took me to the kitchen and asked me for a galss of water and then said piyo paani piyo..

Then he took me to his play room and said Mamma hum puzzle banaye….

I was just looking at him and thinking is it the Noi … my small baby….

Siddharth and Tiger!!

On the weekend of Good Friday we visited ramnagar and Corbett National Park…

The place we stayed was good, one day before to good Friday was an election day in delhi, every other car you see was having the delhi number.. it created so much of rush there that the entry to the Corbett park became difficult…

After spending four hours at the office of the forest department we got the tickets…
The Kosi river was just flowing at a distance of one kilometer from the cottage we were staying…
We had a great time at the river, we sat on the stones and let the water flow beneath us.. Siddharth was initially scared of putting is feet in the water.. i made him sit in my lap then told him to put his feet in the water, and made sure to him that mamma will not leave him, ... within very short time he got comfortable and sat alone on the stone….
There was one stone which was inside the water, the flow was very high there, i challenged Vivek to go onto the stone… he did that … it is amazing of him to go inside the water….
Next day early morning we started our journey to the Corbett Park… we were in the canter… At one the canter was stopped on a very height of the river to show us the animal if they come to drink water.. We saw the crocodile…

When we were going back to the canter, Siddharth fall down and there was a blood on his face, I picked him and got scared to see two holes in between the chick and lips… T
his was the first experience of us and Siddharth… the blood was flowing continuously… Somehow by putting cold water sugar I was able to make the blood flow stop, Siddharth was asking me Tiger dekhne chalo, we all were amazed on his bravery….
We were in the middle of the jungle, where we could not get any first aid , hoping for some car to get so that we can go back to the ramnagar and take Siddharth to the doctor… and our prayer were answered, a gypsy was coming on the opposite route.. we reached Ramnagar… and got Siddharth treated from the doctor, he was fine no stitches were made…
I was wondering that how early these kids forget everything, he was in the water on the same evening, playing with boats and wanted to do the hand gliding…

He was okay till the time they set the hand glider, at the last moment he said I will go with mamma.. That was not possible as i was not trained.. so I did the hand glider with a trainer…. It was a great feeling to be in sky like a bird…. The most amazing thing was acknowledgement and Siddharth telling everyone Mamma ne hand gliding ke thee…


On the way back we showed Siddharth termite house, a small meeting with the monkeys, a visit to the fields of golden wheat( Kanak deeyan baliayan)……


With all these long and sweet memories we are back home…………………
Siddharth is full of actions again... when he looks at pictures he will say mujhe chot lagi thee.. lekin paani mein mazza aaya.. phir chalo... corbett jungle.......

Enjoying Togetherness!!

A small girl walking on the railing at inner circle of CP made my day on one morning going for the course in Lead Auditor for the food safety management system …..

I lowered the glass of my side window said to her in Hindi bahut ache... She gave me a big smile, I waved at her, I could see from my side mirror she waved back at me and a twinkle in her eyes… I wish I could have camera. She made my day..
Next day I took my camera, but she was not there…

The whole process of doing the course was like going back to the college days…..I really enjoyed each and every moment from going early in the morning driving car on the NH 8, reaching at CP in 27 min and amazing victor by sharing this with him to the seeing of airplane landing and taking off from a very close distance …..It is so exciting.

The most happening thing to this course was the trainer my friend, Chinu mere dukh sukh ka saathi… Few days were tough in managing Siddharth, since after Jan this was the first time he went to the day care, Mamma aap roj roj kahaan jate ho… I sat with him and explained him about the training, about the hotel and now if I ask him Siddharth mamma ko course kaun see massi karwati hai he will say very cutely Chunu massi.. and we both will laugh ….

Mona my sweet friend, also did the course with me, first day when she was near the building and she called Chinu on phone to know the address, I was so excited to meet her that I told Chinu I will go and get her here…

My heart was beating meeting Mona after so many years, and there she was ek dum suki patli as she was always…

All five days Mona and me sat together, did our assignments together, writing with the pen, ate together and did the shopping together at CP on the last day….

A friend is the most precious thing on this earth, you don’t pretend for anything in front of them.. Both of them tried hard to make me convince to buy a kurta of their own choice and ended up helping me in selecting the kurta of my choice….

May GOD bless our friendship with many more moments of togetherness and bless them with happiness in their own space of life!!!!
