Letter to father, from tiny Rihaansh.

Hi, Dadda!

For me, every day is a Father's Day.

I wanted you to know, how much I care.

These 23weeks have been so lovely,

Mumma and you never made me feel lonely.

But while I wait, I have to wonder which features I have alike you both.

Do I have your eyes & lips? And mumma’s nose and ears?

Will you teach me all the things I need to know?

Like letters and numbers and how to throw?

Will we go to the park and play ball?

Will you pick me up when I fall?

Will I grow handsome/beautiful and tall?

Next year on this day, we will be together,

Whether we're at the park on the swings,

Or reading a storybook on the chair.

Whatever we do, I know for sure,

We will make one very special pair

Love you dadda.

From, Rihaansh's Pen...

Being a woman - A Woman of Substance...

Every woman carries her responsibility differently. Please don’t compare . A woman wakes up early and gets ready. She prepares her kids for school. She makes breakfast for the entire family. Serves breakfast. She prepares lunch and dinner. She makes her kids do homework. She manages household chores like dusting, watering plants, washing clothes and ironing them. Makes sure, her house is clean all the time. A woman, a housewife has a lot of things to do. No need to count them. No one can count them either. On the contrary, there is another woman, who is not a homemaker, but a working mum. She wakes up. Makes food for everyone. She sends her kids to school. Leaves for work leaving some household chores, which she does anyway after coming back. Now here, don’t you feel she needs some rest? Don’t you feel she needs some help? Domestic help? Why calling her husband or someone from the family for help is considered to be deplorable? I agree with the fact that eve...

MAA...The second GOD.

Mother’s Day... Holds a special place in my own heart because of the little one who made me a mum. I love to get up every morning seeing his face. I can't thank God enough for gifting me 'motherhood'. This day reminds me of my mum... an amazing mother who dedicated her life to her two daughters. She is selfless, hardworking, strong and the most beautiful woman I know. Every year as Mother’s Day gets close, I get a little nostalgic. I used to trouble my mum a lot. I have been rude to her many times. I could not apologize directly but always wanted to. I could not thank her for everything but always wanted to. So today I wanted to sit down and blog a little letter for my mum thanking her for every single thing she has done for me and also to share some of the challenges I’ve experienced as a mom. As a quick side note, when I started writing this post it was all about the joy of motherhood. But when I thought about all the strong moms around me, it didn’t take me long...

Alfredo Pasta & The Roller-Coaster Life

#UAEMemories #10YearsAgo this Alfredo Pasta topped with tangy sauce, was all that I wanted to cook. (Please ignore the picture quality and the quantity of alfredo sauce in it) 😅 Things were fine then... No restrictions. No ifs-n-buts, No one to guide and no one to blame , No COVID, and No work-from-home. Then - I enjoyed the roller-coaster ride. It felt like I was on top of the world with the wind rushing through my hair, the freedom pumping through my veins, and a scream escaping from the very depths of my soul! Although there were troubles on the way, now when I think about them, they make me feel nostalgic. Not just that #dry pasta, but life then, made me feel excited. NOW - Watching life on a roller-coaster ride is now a bit scary. Stepping out is scary. Meeting someone in person is scary. Knowing about someone else's health condition is scary. Not even this pasta can solve this problem. Life now is quite disturbed. Not only mine but almost everyone's....
