The
day exactly three years ago from this day was the second most memorable day for
our entire family. Our first milestone was achieved! ya, baby.... you came like
a gift to us! That wetness due to the first and last touch of umbilical chord
on my left toe! I will never forget in my life. I
always feel my toe has that moisture even in a dry land. Whenever I see my toe,
the birthing room with full of my emotions only come to my mind. You are a rare
soul, you came exactly 5 years 10 months from our marriage. I named you on the
very first day you came into me as 'happy'. I think that is why you are giving
immense pleasure to us every day. We cherish every moment of our togetherness.
Every now and then you weaved a memory with in us. We were not that happy
before you born; you showed us life will be this beautiful. We haven't laughed
together like we laughed with you. You actually has increased our husband-wife
relationship happier and better. Now I & Srini love each other more; have
understood each other more; respect each other's differences. We learnt how to
love unconditionally from you. Your trust on us has made us responsible. The
belief system that evolved in our family, all because of you. You are making
our house live. You have become the meaning of our life. You are the mark of
our happiness.
The
individualism you showed increased our confidence of facing life. You are the
person who challenge the challenge. The gut feeling you have….., happppppaaa.
We have admired it many times. How this girl can be this confident, this much
understanding, this true to self and us.. You have taught me more than I did to
you. We are growing everyday by listening to you.
There is
no husband-wife setup in our family after your birth. Over the time, our home
is like a hostel room of three friends. I always love to play with you; chat
with you; hear the dynamic stories you weave everyday, your creative play, your
nature walk, your cute cute yoga postures, our single plate sharing eateries,
the way you feed your dad and mom; the tight hugs while sleeping; your lazy
morning get ups; your lovely 'no's when I wake you up and clinging on to your
dad, your 'ohm namachivaya's and slogans; your 'aaruvadhu sinam' talks; your
gut talks to your grandpa; your first drawing 'ettu kaal poochi' and your
second drawing 'led bulb'; your tight kisses, your cricket plays with dad, your
cyclings, you gym time on the park rope… on the top of all, your clinging on me
for breast milk… I loved to breast feed you, I enjoyed the entire process of
feeding. I have the satisfaction that I did my very first duty as mom fully
with lots of love. When you were 2.7 years, I stopped mother feeding with no
heart.
Kid, you
are the eye opener for me. You made me love you and Srini for no reason. Love
you my sweet heart!
