Animals, Colours and Ganesha by Sree Aadya

A very normal while I was completely engrossed working on my laptop.

This little soul of mine, Aadya walks up to me tells me .. “Amma .. I will tell you something .. you type on your computer” I was taken aback .. What does a 5 year old who uses the PC only her her zoom classes have to do with such sort of a request? But thankfully I decided to play along .. I said Okay. Lets do it ..

She…

Lockdown .. Unleash ..

I want to do things mindfully ..

It’s a luxury that I am completely deprived off .. and its sad that people around me just don’t get it ..

Yeah .. sometimes I wonder .. if .. they get .. it ..themselves!

But .. are they aware of mindfulness .. in the first place?

The perks of mindfulness? The joy? I doubt it ..

Frankly .. until I was aware of the term a couple of years ago .. I…

Hope

I have been on a sabbatical for so long on the blog.

Rather than the block or extreme fatigue from the challenging job of handling three under 6, I would attribute it to my lack of clarity.

I was just searching for the right platform to reach out to more people rather than simply write for the joy.

well only after going through all my blog posts .. I discovered the joy .. of .. reading 🙂

Though I…

Manasi and Aadya might want anything and everything under the sun .. otherwise.. but when they are sleepy, they just want the warmth of Amma touching them .. just my hand would do! It is such moments when they put their hands around my neck .. that I call … 😍 Complete Bliss! ❤️❤️❤️ So I have a rowdy of a younger daughter Manasi 😅 She decided she wanted to read a book .. She was calling okay…

As long as it isn't harming anybody .. Just embrace them .. Well this is you! Nobody can replace you :) ✋🏼there is absolutely no need of negativity whatsoever around you! .

I handled them alone while trying not to miss out on the errands of the bride! The bridegroom wasn't that demanding 👻 ✅informal-formal montessorri training ✅climbed the tirupati steps, my mom did it along with her two grandaughters in tow! Yay to babywearing! Thank you god for giving us the strength to reach you! Thank god for the ever-energising chant Govinda.....! Govinda! ✅Finally moved out to our own little space .. Though rented .. Its our home! Handling the two or rather three is like 👻 but yet 😍 ✅my first every trek with the child turned out to be solo and I am so glad to have taken the opportunity to escort the youngest participant😘 My inspiration for babywearing has been realised to reality 😍 Hopefully Manasi joins me the next time .. ✅Visit to etikoppaka has enriched me with a whole lot new perspective altogether ✅I have been reading a lot of books .. And montessorri especially and I am so glad! The book featured is my current read and I have just started and I am already glad I picked it! 🙂 Cant trade anything for the blissful moments of sibling love, or the double love dose of motherhood I received in 2017 ! Love you! #wearerealmoms #warm_dec2017 (at Visakhapatnam)

I am recruited into the team of speaking chalk and I would count myself fortunate for this opportunity to learn from the little souls rather than mine .. ✅ 💓 Travel all over Andhra and see and experience all the prominent places here along with my children 💓 Document all my experiences and more for the world @brandandhra 💓 Present it to my icon who inspires me ❣ 💓 Move onto Travel, experience India ..

#fridayintroductions Gayathri - i identity myself right now as a mother of my adorable darlings at the forefront!

Thanks to the love towards one of the hosts 😍 #9 signed up to be a part of a English teaching campaign that locally teaches at the local schools .. #8 re-signed-up the subscription of the online lending library #7 first field visit to the place where it all started #6 first solo trek with preschooler #5 aadya started school leaving a heartbroken yet proud mama #4 lost a person who became my elder mother who showed me how a person can be family without any blood relations .. Also realise yet again .. Life is not at all fair .. #3 got an informal montessorri training #2 weddings of three of my best friends .. 2 of them simply got married to each other 🙃 we had some amazing road trips with a 4 month old and toddler .. #1 I crumpled under depression .. Fighting it back .. Learnt how abuse takes form .. How it hurts both the parties if felt .. Been on both sides .. Understanding .. Conquering and then bettering myself ... And all alone while coping with the fact of no friends.. Around to stick by me .. Well it had been hell of a time .. . But I am glad to able put it behind me and still come off strong! . Yes .. I am proud of holding onto myself .. That I am able to forgive myself .. That I am able to give in the best .. To better myself .. Just like the pink tower featured .. My year has been jumbled up .. Not just the perfect.. Setup .. But I know I will eventually figure everything out all.. And along me .. Would my children support .. Love me all the way .. No matter what! Oh did I mention 2017 just flew by because #happymanasi just reminded me of my #lilbrothers antics and I was just reliving them! Relishing them ! Along with that lovely #siblinglove between #aadyalove and #happymanasi .. #wearerealmoms #warm_dec2017 (at Visakhapatnam)
