Day 197 | Wear your heart everyday

I asked Lil Dumpling to pick the cards showing things that we wear everyday. He included heart with other things! I love this little man for reminding me of little things in life that we take for granted! ♡ I am not his teacher but he is my teacher!

Day 136 | Mango Love

In spite if sleepless night, keeping a close eye on Lil Dumpling, I woke up quite early today. While my two boys are sleeping peacefully, I sneaked into kitchen and gobbled up 2 mangoes the Indian way with juice dripping from my mouth and arms while I noisily sucked its pith! Ah heaven! Ah simple joys of life! And now working on my next blog post to keep my mind away from wandering into negative thoughts and what better thing is to bring all those happy memories flooding back and lifting my soul than the sight of these golden beauties! :)

Day 135 | Blessed

To have them in my life! We are back at home from hospital after another episode of heartbreak and hope! Like every time (knock on wood) the end it is hope that triumphs over every thing else and I am grateful for that. But 3 ambulance rides and 4 hospital stays in this year is more than enough to put me off from hospitals. But at the same time I can't thank enough all the hospital staff for helping us in those painful episodes. 

 Today I am just thankful for every simple joys, like able to sleep in our beds instead of narrow hospital beds. Tomorrow I will be back to my usual whiny and complaining self ;)

Day 132 | Mother

“There's a story behind everything..but behind all your stories is always your mother's story..because hers is where yours begins.”

Happy Mother's Day!!!

Day 109 | New Family Doctor ;)

 

Since early morning I have been subjected to torture, errr, medical check up by our own new family doctor. My blood pressure has been taken, ear and throat has been checked, temperature is taken, I have been asked to brush my teeth properly, eye test done, injected some dozen times, tummy is pressed and tickled, and forcefully tablets are pushed through my throat along with the bottle! But the Junior Doc is still not satisfied and the tests are still carried on!!!! If you don't hear from me in the next couple of days, consider that I have been admitted to hospital for further medical torture, oops check up! ;)
