silent gabber

            T he oven beeps, there is the sound of the washing machine, the blender and then goes mom’s favorite  playlist in her mobile. The mom thinks she wakes up early and gives me time to sleep until she prepares breakfast but reality is, once she is out of the bed, the endless noise of these appliances never let you sleep. Why can’t you allow a three a year old to sleep until it’s time to go to school???       I t is wake-up time, here come the cuddles. The mom has read from these 'know-it-all' parenting sites that the kid must be cuddled before he/she wakes up for the day. How do I tell her that I hate those morning cuddles? It is okay if she cuddles, I mean soft cuddles. What she does scares me that I feel she is about to eat me up. Mom, I know you love me but stop sniffing and biting me. Then starts the Pee and Poo drama. I would pee and poo whenever I need to, after-all you are going to give up for the day and ask me to tell the nanny when I need to pee o

B efore I start rambling, you have to accept it people!

Since you think you have been doing all your work yourself throughout your life. But in-fact the things you have done all by yourself are eating, giving yourself a bath and putting your clothes

The kid is 1 year old and not a baby anymore so you think of making beach plans, a day at the Mall, Short trips or a week’s vacation. You think you don’t have to carry the huge diaper bag that you used all year around. No, you are wrong. It has to be a bigger bag now!      First, it is good if you choose a back bag instead of a shoulder bag to make both your hands available, for the kid is anytime on the go! Two or more compartments in the bag is a must, you can even get a laptop bag since it provides an extra compartment. Mind you! the color of the bag has to be unisex so that the dad does not frown to share it. And before organizing your bag, you will need a few zip-lock bags.      The compartment which is handy has to hold the Nappies alongside wipes, rash cream and some trash bags, all three in a zip-lock bag.      Place a water bottle which is non-spill may be placed in the bottle holder on the sides.
