Journey of a mother as her daughter turns four ...
A motherhood is
...a day old clothing
uncombed hair
before you could blink shower
pyjamas with smeared hand prints all over
dishes filled sink
a grubby house
unmade beds
ever growing laundry
the art of cleaning the same place many times a day and still failing
...to bruised knees
a tycoon hit looking living room after you return from work
3 AM wake ups and 1 PM bedtimes when your child is sick
being on-call 24/7 – no pay and no day-offs
going from ‘Yuck!’ to ‘Here, wipe it on my shirt'
drinking reheated tea at least 5 times
reading “The Alchemist” till eternity because every time you pick the book, the apple of your eye decides to poo
tidying, feeding, talking and answering
All at the same time.
Phew!!!
but...being a mommy
is about joyful hearts.
is about magical kisses.
is having the entire world in your hands when those tiny hands hold you tight.
is a sink full of dishes but a house filled of laughter.
is draining but exhilarating.
is the hardest and the happiest hood ever.

Being mother soothes.
It is about doing it again and again…gleefully!
