Hi to y'all!!!

Hi Folks....

Hasn't it been so long since I wrote... I wonder if any of the regulars still check out this place... Have been meaning to get back for quite sometime now and never did find time... Reason: MOTHERHOOD :))))

And am I loving it?!??! Its such an adorable phase in life... Having a bundle of joy in your arms. Though she is barely over 2 months of age (today happens to be her 2nd month bday in fact) she still has her dad and me nicely wrapped around her little chubby finger. Friends who know me can vouch for my jest in surfing and ORKUTTING... And imagine the same me - I refuse to check the scraps from 5 to 7 in the morning because that's the time she spends giggling and cooing... Wouldn't miss one second of it for anything else in the world. One yell from my mom,"Ishu is smiling" and I leave all I have in hand to rush over and catch her in that mood...

Infants are really tempting... Have always been so for me. But that was so different. That was just fun. I used to think many a times. "Its OK to have neighbor's kids drop in for an afternoon play session. That's so refreshing. But having a kid of your own... Its just such high maintenance affair. Diapers to be changed. Feeds to be given. And then the sleepless nights.."

But know what - Its just the same things that give so much joy now. Having someone else's kid over means you get only the fun part of it. Not the sense of belonging. With Isha here, I feel I have finally gotten home :)

Anyways, motherhood's sinking in and am enjoying it... Now its about time I got back to the other aspects of me, least of which is not writing... Hope to hang in here a bit more than the past few days... Meanwhile drop in to say a hi fellas!

Congratulations once again!! I may not really know what you mean but I sure understand. I have so many new moms around me at work place. And I'm sure you can now believe that every conversation that starts, with any them, invariably, end up at their child. They talk n talk about their baby and later feel embarrassed for making me listen to all that while we're s'posed to be working.
Anyway, I'm happy for all of you. You have a beautiful angel by your side. May god bless her. Take care.
