Guess Who?

This weekend we visited Vivek’s paternal house, where his chacha and chachi lives with their cute little daughters. As Siddharth calls them fondly Vasu didi and smriti didi..

There is a special fragrance of love and togetherness comes from the environment at their house. I love the food they cook. Ek alag sa taste hai jo sirf mummy ke khanee mein se aata hai…. So we tend to eat more also.

When we were heading towards their house, Siddharth was saying I will get bore and when we were coming back he was the one who was not willing to come back. He made everybody laugh at his cute little things, and the best was when we were moving towards our car after receiving chocolates and water pipe from chachi he said very innocently to me “ Mamma yahaan sab kuch free milta hai”

While going we wanted to buy some puzzle for Siddharth’s Vasu and Smriti Didi, the challenge is that you go to a toy store with Siddharth and don’t buy him anything it is hard.

This time it was made easy by the owner, Siddharth selected the toy and the shopkeeper said you give us ur address and we will deliver. He asked the shopkeeper when you are giving me the toy for my sisters so why are u not giving the other toy which I selected and we had another laugh on his logic.

I knew the promise of the Shopkeeper to Siddharth has to be completed, as he started asking the question about the delivery in the car. I looked at Vivek and we both made a plan to fulfill his dream.

On Sunday morning at house our security guard comes with a Game named Guess who and gave to Siddharth that the Shopkeeper at Delhi has send this game. I was overwhelmed with pride on seeing joy on Siddharth’s face.

Now we play Guess who together and it always gives me more joy and contented feeling to see the way Siddharth enjoys this game…..

“There lies a past of me in a child which I wish to find and enjoy”

A milestone....

Vivek and Siddharth at Vagator Beach Goa

This is my 100th post, It reminds me of the celebration we use to make at Pepsico for the first 100ton of production and then for the first 100 crore of turnover. The mails with the best wishes will float from all over.. There was a huge amount of team work which was involved to make that 100 To this 100, i have grown with each and every post.

I would like to thank the two special men in my life, without their love and support it was not possible to reach here Thanks Vivek and Siddharth Vivek, a silent and strong bond he shares with me and my blog, whenever I write a post I send him a link for him to read. A small smile or a wow or reply saying too good values me the most.

Siddharth, who is the hero of this blog, thanks baby without your cute conversation, amazing doings it was not possible to reach here. Thanks baby and be always the same.. Though he has a fair idea, mama writes about him. As whenever he makes something or says something and if I pick a camera or pen he will show his full interest. I am sure he will appreciate more when he starts reading …

A special thanks to a friend who introduced to me to this beautiful world of words three years ago. Thanks Kavi, for your constant support and believe in me.

Looking back, I never thought that internet can bring this special bond of connecting with people you have never met, never seen.. Many thanks to all the blog friends I have on my blog roll and more to come, thanks for making time to read my blog, showing your support through your comments they mean a lot to me. I always look forward to them so keep on writing…

At the 100ton of production we had ladoos, so leaving to the market to get the ladoos for this 100th also…..

Attitude and Life

Everything around is growing at its own pace and giving us a beautiful feeling.. Many new flowers have grown in the house… welcoming the spring or rain…and giving me a hope of life..

Siddharth has learned the skating. I learnt swimming (I use to afraid from water)…Gaggi Mamu( my brother) has gone to Mumbai.. His lunch at subway replaced with the Vada Pao.. We are growing to not having him around us on weekends…we miss you Gaggi Mammu..

There is a momentous change in the patterns Siddharth makes now.. Earlier he use to make small and closed, now he always explain to me and makes a story around it.. He has never played any of the puzzles the way directions are given on the box. He will always make his own ways, and I somehow feel great about it.

The new pattern siddharth made with the wooden slabs

The most growing thing is his talks, the small incidence which happened today gave me a big laugh I thought it deserves a sharing here:

Siddharth wanted the ice cream and it is there in kitchen, I was working on my laptop.

Siddharth: Mama where is my ice-cream

Me: It is there in the kitchen

Siddharth: Mama aaap mujhe do…

Me: ( being engrossed in work) : Aaap aapne aap le lo..

Siddharth: I don’t like this attitude..

with this he went to kitchen picked his ice cream ate it and I am still thinking…. He must have heard it from us and used it perfectly..

I love this attitude of yours Siddharth…Love u baby!!

Aankhoon mein juske koi to khayaab hai...

Words from the Sand!!

The small world of sand and water Siddharth made at park with the kids

It is raining today and Siddharth is writing the alphabets on the board.. we thought we will learn some alphabets today. I asked him to write the alphabets he remembers , he wrote few of them. After writing this he said mama ab aap mujhe enke baby alphabets bhee to likhne ko bolo, jaise didi(they call their class teacher didi) kahtee hai.. I liked the way he called the small alphabets as baby alphabets..
I thought it would be a good idea to take a picture of Siddharth’s first alphabets which he wrote on his own..

Then all of sudden we went to the balcony to hear a noise of kids in the park, and we both were excited to see the kids in the park playing with the sand and making design with water and sand. Siddharth loves to play with sand and water, so I asked him u want to join them with your sand kit. He immediately said yes, mama I will do the study when I am back.
I thought the alphabets he can learn later and he will anyways learn it. But the learning he will have from these little group of kids, with the passion they all were playing in the sand. They all got more passionate , when Siddharth shared his sand kit with them. They all ran towards him to catch his sand kit.
Mama was clicking them from top ..and when he was back mama mujhe bahut maza aaaya .. humne bahut masti kari…

Megha re megha mat pardes ja tu… aaj tu prem ka sandesh barsa………………
( clouds don’t go away give us some message of love)

My Inspiration in life!!

She has been my inspiration through out my life. She was married to a family where most of the members were from non education background. Her struggle in life has always inspired me. She has always shown me a new ways in life. She use to sit with me when I was studying my board exam in 10th class, the fragrance of her in my studies makes me happy now also. After coming from school, she will just give me a smile and I will forget all the tension of my life.
I remember I use to sit with her and recite her I learned from my school lessons, and then I will say something wrong to check whether she is listening me or not, I loved those small things with her. She never scolded me for this; she loved each and every prank of mine. To make me successful is her aim in life. She has never been aggressive with me. I have loved her silence and small words of encouragement she has given me from time to time in my life. She gave me her time, her passion, her love, her patience, and many more for which I will always be short of words.
The day I got married we were separated to live life on our own. I felt like somebody has taken me out from my roots, she is there to guide me but she wanted me to find the ways on my own now. She is there for me when I need a guidance, I never knew how to cook. So for small things I use to call her, she has never been impatient with me.
She has all the time in this world to attend me. She has never laughed on my silly questions and has always answered it with love. I gave birth to new life, and she took the responsibility of growing up the new life as I could not get much leave from the work. She never wanted me to leave the job, as happened in the case of most of my friends after marriage.

Today at the age of 60, when she cannot walk half a kilometer, as her knee joints are not supporting her. I cry when I wrote this post, as you can never see your parent weak. We have always seen them strong, carrying so much troubles but being happy.The hands which brought us in the life are needed to be hold today..

The way she tells me TU ghabra na ( you don’t worry), shows me that she is full with the will power…

Nanni aaap chini kee paronthee bahut ache banate ho, mama ko nahi aati.. listening this from Siddharth she will immediately run to the kitchen and fulfil his demand..

I love you Mummy!!
My mom with siddharth and his best friend mani..

ek naya dost!!

Siddharth has got an amazing capability of connecting with people of different age. One of my cousins visited us this weekend. I met him almost a year and we have been rarely together after my marriage. His training at Gurgaon gave us an opportunity to spend two days together.

The way Siddharth has spend the weekend with him, was not looking like a first meeting.

They made a cute home with a puzzle of Siddharth that he has not broken and wanted it to be as such. He made this as the garage for his small cars.

The love Siddharth showered him over the weekend, made difficult for my cousin to say bye to Siddharth when he was leaving for his school today morning. The one cute example is when I and Vivek have to meet a friend yesterday who was not keeping his health well. We thought of dropping these two young men at home. Siddharth wanted to come along, and then we told him we are going to see a uncle who is not well. Mama Wahaan dawayioon kee smell aaygee... (There will be smell of medicine around the patient) Being a parent that we don’t wanted he to come along we agreed to his logic. And yes it gave an opportunity to both of them to know each other more and me to write a post. As when we came back, below was the scene in his room.

My cousin was standing, they were playing a game Janga, truth or dare. You take out one brick and you have to perform whatever is written on that particular brick.

Chintoo Mamu: Sing a song

Siddharth: pahle aap yeh batyo aapko kaun kaun se gaane aate hai ( first tell me which all songs you know)

Chintoo mamu: Mujhe to bahut gaane ate hain.. ( I know many songs)

Siddharth: thik hai pahle yeh batayo aapko kaun se gaane aate hai.. ( that’s ok, first tell me which all songs you know)

Chintoo Mammu ( by this time confused and happy by this little one’s curiosity) decided to sing Jingle bells jingle bells jingle all the way………………..and we all were laughing after this…

Since today morning our home is full with the fragrance of the flowers he left for Siddharth and the memories he has left behind……………….

Haath chute bhee to rishte nahi tuta karte………

Back to School!!

Siddharth school reopened today after a long summer vacation of nearly two months… These two months went with the joy of being together for the whole day.. Being a boss of ur own work gave me an advantage of doing the work for the flexible timing..
I and Vivek dropped him today at school, the moment he was at the school gate; there was an excitement in his eyes…
Good morning turtle, good morning plants, good morning fishes, good morning Jaishree didi ( they call didi to their class teacher) he was saying to everyone in a very sweet gesture and great smile on his face..

I missed him thru the day , these holidays I also went through my summer holidays, we painted pots, piggy bank he got from his nanni. All the kids brought their own scrap books, they have made during the holidays. They have shared their work. Siddharth came home and told me Mamma mera kaam itna zada hai kee didi kal bhi share kargee.. aur humne simmi didi ( the other teacher in the class) ko nahi dikhaya to school main hee rakhna ..
There were many new things I came to know about Siddharth. He is now a kid who understands each and every talk we do at house. We cannot talk in codes he can decode it. He loves doing paint, playing puzzles, playing memory games, creating stories ( I started Siddharth blog also. ) playing hide and seek. He love challenges and to beat other in the game of kog works. He is grown up in weight and height as the all other kids in his class were today morning..
And the most surprising was the blocks he made today evening..
Siddharth beta you have beaten Mamma today in this game…. Love u baby!!
Bachoon ke nazuk hathoon ko asmaan chu le ne do..
Do char kitabein pad key eh bhee hum jaise ban jayngee…

Aap nanni kab banogee..

Yesterday my mom dad came to our home. Siddharth asked my Mom Nanni app meri nanni ho, aur mamma kee nanni Jhai hai jo gurdaspur mein rahti hai.. lekin meri mamma nanni kab banegee.. We all laughed at the innocence and confidence of this cute little child.. I love you Siddharth.. Be always the same my baby!!

Siddharth with my mom and my Nanni

Hai Zanoon!!

Jisko marna tha who mare nahi aur jisee nahi marna tha who mar gaya… this was the Siddharth's words the moment we were out after watching movie Newyork…

Today when my brother came he told him the below version of the movie…. He watched yesterday night…

Teen log hote hai.. woh college mein hote hai woh freinds ban jaate hai ek ladki hoti hai aur two boys bahut badee hote hai college jatee hai.. who race dekhte hai phir do bade boys friend ban jaate aur ek wife ..

College se bahar aake mazee karte hai.., who aadmi who baat soch raha hota… army hoti hai.. jo eske ghar pe shot kartee hai.. aadmi ek uncle ko bolta unhone hamare ghar pe shoot kara.. phir who army uskoo bolta hai lekin aadmi ko police ne hee bola hota kee shoot karo aur usne aadmi ke ghar pe guns rakhi hoti hai..

Bas itni hee yaaad hai.. ab main khelne ja raha hoon…
I was amazed the way Siddharth was telling the story to my brother… Hai Zannon hai zannon sa seene main .. yeh ladka itni cute batein karta hai.... What say?

A cute conversation!!

When I was feeding food to Siddharth today a cute conversation happened :
Siddharth: Mamma aap apne tummy mein ek baby rakho.. mujhe ek baby chahiye,,,
Me: Kyoon
Siddharth: So that I can play with him..
Me: Siddharth we can have baby by other way also
Siddharth : Kaise
Me: We can adopt a baby there are many babies who doesn’t have parent so we can adopt
Siddharth: Hum uska khyaal rakh sake, aur usko paal ke appna baby bana le..
Me: ( by this time amazed ) : haanzi..
Siddharth: Mamma who log aapko phone karte hai kee babby le lo..
Me: You want a boy or girl
Siddharth: Jo jaldi bada ho jayee…
I am laughing and laughing on the innocence , commonsense and confidence of my cute little baby..
I love you Siddharth!!

Making a new way!!

Siddharth has started exploring his own world. He has new circle of friends, which he made on his own.

Yesterday during his skating one boy was regularly cheering for Siddharth, Being a curious person I asked Siddharth do you know his name. He said mama who jab dusri team mein hota hai tabh bhee mere liye cheers karta hai… Sab log ek dusre se school puchte hai, kaun se standard mein hai…Aur sir bolte hai batein nahi karo.. main nahi bolta…

Siddharth use to be a very shy kid, I am amazed the way he answers the question people ask him about his school and class. There is a different kind of confidence he shows. Many a times the kids come with their own ways..
I could see the reflection of his thoughts in his play too, the house which he made today with his blocks showing me a new way of life he is making..

Good luck Siddharth your mama is proud of you beta!!!

Socha hai!!

I was reading a book to Siddharth on fishes. The moment I read that fishes doesn’t have legs, Siddharth gave me an annoyed look and said Mamma Fishes don’t have legs, we can see it clearly. We must write a letter to the publisher of book… I was left with no answers to these thoughts of him ........and asking my self socha hai....... We were going to the basement parking, and we spotted a German shepherd dog, named Simba. Then all of a sudden Siddharth asks me Mamma do you know why this dog has been named Simba. I was clueless. Looking at me he said Mamma This dog looks like a lion in the story of Lion King. The lion was named Simba in the story so this dog is also named Simba. People scared from him the way we do from Lion, so this is Simba….
He said these with a great innocence. Many times kids amaze us with their thoughts and words. They are very pure and innocence, which I believe is the purest thing on the earth.
Aasman hai neela kyoon.. paaani gila gila kyoon…….Socha hai………is the song playing in my heart now…………………..

Logic or love!!

I had a voucher of 100 Rupees from Shopper stop, which were to expire by month end. Today being Sunday holiday, decided to redeem it. Siddharth being the cutest choice, I decided to give it to him, he agreed to a toy under 100 rupees. He was excited.
At the shop he liked the cars, a usual thing for any boy to like it. I looked at the puzzle under 100 rupees a usual thing for me as I believe into more of a utility. We both were debating on it which goes as below:
Mama: Siddharth you already have 10 cars, what a big deal, it will add one more to it.
Siddharth: Mama I need it as I loved it and I don’t have this model. We have many puzzles also.
Mama: (being more polite) Baby, look if u buys the puzzle you can show to everyone and give them the challenge to do it. They will say wow..
Siddharth: Mama we can do the same with other puzzle also, everybody has not seen many of the puzzle. And then with a sad look on his face he says , Ok whatever you say with eyes looking somewhere else.

By this time I decided to buy the car, I don’t know it was his logic or my love which convinced me. But the moment he saw the cars. He came gave me a big hug and a million dollar smile………… And there is no logic after this:)

Yahaan ke hum Sikander!!

The night of June 18, 2009, there was another night on june 18, 1998. More than 10 years has been passed, when a batch of 28 girls passed out from an institute which has now become a deemed university.

The girls and boys, but I am biased to write here only about the girls of Diploma 93. A batch of girls with their own conviction of life, with their own point of view of life. As we own a lot to each other in some or other way for shaping the good life we are living today. The batch teachers use to call them the most creative, the most naughtiest and the most energetic batch of students. Yes I don’t know , was there any batch like us after 1998. But yes I know the batch of diploma 93, has set the trends, made the history now in the college. As they use to say our names will be written in golden words.

Nahi samjhe hai jo humee to kya jataa hai, haari bazzi ko zitna humee atta hai, Yahaan ke hum sikander was the favourite songs, they use to sing when they were together.I dont remember who among them created this song. But everyone loved to song as it was the symbol of their love and unity they posseed.

All of them with different names, with different attitude towards life but balanced so well. They will do many things together, almost all the 28 girls, and the bonding they discovered on this night 10 year back. I remember till today.

I was showing the picture to one of my new friend in new life today, that it reminded me all of you. Now each one of them are leading a new life, giving birth to new life and shaping a new life.

I dedicate this post to you all!! Where ever you are whatever you are doing may you leave the marks in the same way as you did 10 year back.
Good luck to all of my friends of Diploma 93.

Geometry of Life!!

Siddharth has learned to add numbers, these are the first addition sum he has done. He loves doing math. I went to kitchen to cook food, Siddharth wanted to do maths. He came and sat on the shelf and started doing his math.
It reminds the same passion of me about math. I use to do math in the night with the Binaca songs on transistor. The songs were playing till four o’ clock in the morning and I will also do the math sums till that time. Specially in the class XI and XII. Maths was my favourite subject from class X. I still remember if any of my favorite song came, I use to leave my book , raise the volume and sing the song. Start math with another song…
I loved the darkness in the night and the voice of only a song and my pen on the paper solving math sums of Trigonometry, derivative, Integral and Statistics. My mind is getting lost in the sums of Statistic..
How did I found the concentration of doing maths in the below songs, and scored maximum in Maths, is a sum to be solved still… may be Siddharth can solve this also…

Pukarta chala hoon main, gali gali bahaar kee..
Bus ek sham zulaf kee….

On the blog of a story writer!!

Jeffrey Archer was in Gurgaon, me and siddharth went to listen his talk.. the talk was good, inspiring.. though Siddharth slept in my lap during the talk..

I went to take his autograph with Siddharth in my lap, and today to my surprise, when i saw his blog me and Siddharth are there.. I was glad to see Siddharth on his blog, as today only i wrote the Siddharth's stories on blog.. is it a some co-incedence.. i dont know i leave the answer to GOD!!

http://jeffreyarchers.blogspot.com/2009/05/looking-to-future.html

Balancing Act!!

Siddharth started skating classes, and we both started swimming.. we are balancing on water and earth!! He has shown tremendous amount of energy in skating... i can see a different confidence in his eyes and good flexibility in his body.. yesterday me and vivek both were watching him doing skating and realized he has grown up.. Siddharth gets up very amazingly when he fall during skating...

In swimming he is my coach, i am unable to float myself in water, and then he will come to me Mama aapko bilkul bhi heavy nahi rakhna, loose kar do itna asaan hai.. dekho i wil teach you and then he will do the race with Vivek in water... i was thinking i got less than what i wanted and more than what i expected!!

That's the balance in life!!!

meri mitti kee khushboo!!!

Aryan and Siddharth playing with their new truck at Nanny House!!

Me and vivek both are travelling this week for our official trip to different part of INDIA... Siddharth is at Nanny's (maternal grandmom) place... Yesterday his Daddi ( paternal grandmom) called him up and he asked Daddi aap mere nanny ko kaise jaante ho, which made me think how deep he thinks.. and the another one We bought a truck for him on the way.. Today morning when i called up to ask him , he said mama i am filling my truck with Mitti and usmesee khushboo aa rahi hai. meri mittii kee khushboo.........

Garmi kee chutiyaan!!

Siddharth's summer holiday started since a week back he has got school home work which is very different from the school home work we did during our summer holiday.. as below

1. Go with your mama and papa for a cycling in the morning
2. collect leaves, stones etc from the places u visit
3. count the no of rooms, fans etc at your home and make a note in your holiday booklet
4. Observe shape and colours
5. notice things which are soft, rough and smooth..

I read this page to siddharth and by evening he has noticed that my skin is soft and mama's skin is hard.. dari is rough ... it is a real fun even i am feeling like to be a child again.. specially when siddharth talks creative things, yesterday when i was reading a concept about gravity to him he said mama kitna achaa hota na agar space niche hota aur gravity upar hum sab astranaut hote..

Megha re megha.....

It rained yesterday the first rain of this summer... the moment Siddharth saw it is raining he wanted to go in the rain... i was as always running after him to click him...

a poem of my childhood days came to my mind while writing this.. ( related to the importance of rain for the growth of rice in Punjab.. it is called oh God please shower the rain so that we have grains in our house) as we say in punjabi..

Rabba rabba minh barsa... sadi kothi danee pa...

Siddharth ke Batein.... Stories of Siddharth - Part I

Now a days Siddharth talks in a very cute and smart way so i thought i will write a series of his talks with me... This one happened when we were coming from his school today..

Usually In the afternoon after picking Siddharth sometime we go the bank if I have some job to do, one day Siddharth said mama I get bored so u finish your job before picking me up from school. I promised him to agree. A day before yesterday we saw one very interesting game named Mastermind at one of the friends place.. And Siddharth wanted me to buy for him.. Since it was a long time that I bought toys for him so I thought of buying this one for him. We decided to go after his school..
Today when we were coming back from school, Siddharth asked me Mama are we going direct home or somewhere else and he reminded me of my promise. I asked Siddharth we went yesterday to market, then he said very cutely Mama mein kal bhool gaya tha….
I was just laughing and thinking he is a smart kid of an innocent mom…………

A cute conversation!!

Today morning while bathing Siddharth, looking at how thin he has become a worried mom ask him a question which leads to a cute conversation, which I thought deserves a post
Mama: Siddharth you eat very less baby?
Siddharth: Mama mujhe bada nahi hona..
Mama (very surprisingly) : why bachaa?
Siddharth: agar mein bada ho gaya to mujhe fun game khelne ke liye time nahi milegaa.. mujhe office jana hoga..
Mama: which fun game
Siddharth : Like Mario, Icelander .. look Papa always say play alone I don’t have time I have to work..
Mama: No Siddharth u can always find time, like mama does sometime..
Siddharth(with a big smile) : Fine I will work from home and make my office at home..
We both were laughing, and he still eats less plays more…. But I was amazed to know the way a six year old is thinking….

Talent Nanni!!

Went to Punjab this weekend, Siddharth got a new set of blocks from Nani( my mother).. named talent blocks and made a very nice table and chair...
Nanni i enjoyed making this..bindi and icecream bhi bahut yummy thee...............

Josh Trip 3 - GOA

Long weekend and amazing offers at airlines.. made it possible to book the air ticket for complete family for GOA in a nice resort. The journey started on 9th April, reached resort and headed for the nearby beach Vagator.. Sidddharth was asking me where is sand, water.. as he wanted to play with his new sand kit at GOA.. siddharth playing with his new sand kit at Vagator beach
The sunset was beautiful at the vagator beach, the color of the water was deep blue during the sunset. Next day morning we were roaming around the resort to get a bike on rent, started moving out of the resort and took a lift from a man who dropped us at the place where all the people live who give bike on rent. Then Vivek saw a bike standing in someones backyard, and he said i want this bike only. We tried to look for the owner of this bike and found him finally.. below we all on the new rented bike. and then here vivek and siddharth on a bike in water at Baaga Beach, i must say when siddharth was far he made scare the mom's heart... and when they were back siddharth was talking about that the driver drove it slow...
This was Siddharth's first experience in ocean, initially he was scared but then he was going too far in ocean that he made me scared...

and this was really amazing when siddharth hide himself under the sand....
I remember when i went to GOA three years back alone on a business trip, the taxi driver took me to arambol beach and i love it going there since that day, but this time it was fascinating to watch and click siddharth on this beach when he was running after the birds to catch them..
The luckiest thing happened during our visit to Chaopra Fort, the view of the sea from this fort is beautiful, you feel like sitting there. On the way up to Chaopora fort, i lost my wallet, it was kept in a bag and by mistake i hold the bag in a reverse position, Vivek was coming behind me when he mentioned about it and i could check my keys and vivek wallet. when we reached up on the fort, i looked for my wallet in the bag and it was not there in the bag.. I told vivek i am going back and want to look for it..i went back and found it on the way and i was feeling so lucky... so this trip should be named as lucky Josh TRIP... what say?

Below is our names together on the sand....

yadein bus yadein rah jaati hai.................

Mast Raho!!

sarah, siddharth, asawari, amreen

All the kids were looking so sweet, that i could not resist myself from clicking them.. Today was Ram Naomi and Ashtami. We celebrated it home, with all these cute little friends of Siddharth!!

Below is the Siddharth First handwriting and around is the story he make from his world...
There is a big whale, and a small whale swimming in a sea with a boy...!!!
nayi duniya hai jo Siddharth ne banayee.. nayi batein nayee shabdoo se...!!!!

Journey of one year... Truly Natural

Today is the 1st birthday of Truly Natural... Truly natural i gave this name to my company as we deal into completely natural products.... We celebrate the birthday from the day we are out on the earth but we born the day we are conceived in the womb.. the name comes later...
We celebrated today the 1st birthday with a cake cut and a special dinner... and a movie on hope...JAI ho!! Thirteen February, Truly Natural was conceived. I conceived an idea of staring on my own..

This one year has been full of challenge, initial days were as tough as they are today... we did a good business and crossed one milestone of turnover... The main challenge was working from home , managing Siddharth, completing orders on time..overcoming challenges which were just thrown on me... but i loved all this... i loved to be free, loved to be on my own, loved that Vivek showered his support, loved the way Siddharth calls Mamma's company name, loved to be my own boss, loved my first order, loved my first challenge, loved my fears,love to be woken up in the nights about the dreams, loved to work on those early morning, loved my article in newspaper, loved the hope from nothing, loved the different views about me and my company.....loved to write this post!!!
Happy Birthday Truly Natural!!

Abra ka dabra

New words to be learn from Siddharth.. Siddharth look so cute when he says the below words in his own language i call it as Abra ka dabra.. it would be a nice idea to keep a record of these words:
Namak is Manak
Pazami is zamami
Technology is katnology
Takila is katila
Katori is takori
Ganja is Janga
Today i learnt Almirah is Amlirah
If you ask him Siddharth say namak very cutely he will say manak.. Though he can say it right also but he knows i smile if he says it wrong..

Keep Smiling:)

AGRA Josh Trip - Two

In the college, we use to say that whatever you will do on the first day of the year, you repeat the whole year same thing...

The new year started with a josh trip to Rajasthan and within twenty days there was another exciting trip done...i believe it is going to be a series ... this is JOSH TRIP 2 and 3 is already planned... ?????

26th Jan. was long weekend... we didn't made any plans to go for any excursion. i was thinking to get some carpenter work done at my office.. but destiny was different.

My mom always says, jithoon da dana paani likyaa piyogee.. so it was destine to spend the weekend at AGRA .. The TAJ.. our first visit to TAJ with Siddharth..
