Sparkle is recovering. Poor baby had such a tough time. I am feeling so relived. What do I do this weekend?, I guess: shopping would be a good idea.

Sparkle is again having fever.. Whats wrong with little guy?  We got his blood test done, he is less on hemoglobin.What do I do?

I am gonna put things in points: Will anyone believe if I say that I have found time since last Saturday to write down things in my mind. After the usual Saturday chores, we took sparkle for his vaccination. Its a bad thing to see your baby being pricked. After we were back, I made a chocolate cake, I know it was not in plans. The cake turned out so good, I guess finally I am getting a hang of baking. I can't tell u the joy I experience when my cooking venture turn out well. There were guest at my mom's place and my lil sister very smartly got me into some hard work... writing a speech. It was then that i realized that one may speak and master in many languages, however mother tongue is the only language in which they can communicate from heart. Church was long, coz i had to wait for maple Sunday school to wind up and hubby's youth meeting to conclude. Yes I know poor sparkle and me. He was so tired.... When I was home, there was more to be added to the speech we wer

Just came across a wonderful blog. The lady of the house is such a graceful being. I would definitely want to grow like her. wow, this blog made my day!

I am planning what new task to achieve this weekend. (I know i haven't bough a cell neither the shelf I was planning to! But hubby is still researching on that front, i will soon get them). However for this weekend I was thinking of some feminine touch to my house. I really admire the author of http://charmingthebirdsfromthetrees.blogspot.in/, she so good at giving a touch of femininity to her home. I am always inspired by her. So I have decided to take that as a job this weekend. The results will be posted, once the work is accomplished. Pray for me:)

I though to dedicate my today's post to my sisters. Though there haven't been a single day in our life when we haven't had a fight or verbal argument or something close before we ventured into our family life (except for our youngest sis), now we miss each other every single day. Me being the eldest was always the bossy one i suppose. While Tens (2nd sis) was the coolest & witty one, and tins (the youngest) pampered ram. Tens and myself were mostly in same kind of dress leaving Tins the odd one out. They were like; such little things when I had left home for educational and working purpose. And when I came back what do I see? Gorgeous young ladies! Girls do grow fast. Tens always had this amazing quality of  calming other by cracking jokes and talking peacefully. She was a favorite at church, social function. Even in her family life she handles everything so well. 'Patience'... that's what make things happen for her.. Not my cup of tea. That 'P&#

Now That I am busy fulfilling the demands of my darlings: Sparkle (He is developing his share of likes and dislikes- lots of new food to eat), Maple (enjoying her summer camp-with lot of to do activities), I realize that i haven't been able to give myself some personal time. So now I have decided that even if its for 10 min I am gonna sit with myself. Things that I intend to do is: 1. Self grooming-after joining back to office, grooming has reduces to a rough use of comb (only if my hair could speak, they would be yelling out at me!) So to do would include oiling hair 2s a week and 1 elaborate session of shampooing and conditioning. once a week facial scrubbing (its been ages since I have done that) Regular use of under eye cream.  2. Reading: My god when did I last read something (Six months back I guess). I must read, read, read something at least everyday. 3. Cooking something special every weekend. Yes, it really should make me very happy; me alone making a desse

With Sparkle at home, I hardly manage to get any time for tidy up or organizing our home. Its all in mess, due to my rushing for work and they hurrying to cook dinner. And then I wait for Saturdays.. But now I decided that, i shall try my level best to avoid stuff lying around. Need to fix places for wanderers. Some of the stuff that keep wandering around include: 1. Hair brush 2. Office bag 3. Laptop 4. Maples school bag 5. Toys 6. scissors 7. Match box 8. Clothes/towels I am on hunt to find furniture and storage equipment at home that are not being used as are to, so that I may possible be able to give some of the above shelter. However for stuff like clothes/towels that need to be handy I guess I need to buy some hooks. I found two items that I think I need to buy : http://www.ebay.in/itm/Hand-Made-Wooden-Iron-Wall-Self-With-Hooks-Stand-/190820022543?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_203&hash=item2c6dc2790f http://www.zansaar.com/wall-tile-hook-sunny-sunflowers-p-NAIVLT246

After a break of 6 months, i have joined back office. Oh I did miss my work, though it was overshadowed with the happiness of seeing sparkle grow. I can't believe that I left this place on 8th October hoping to come back & finish all my unfinished task and instead I was on the operation table the next day and had my sparkle come to this world.. Life is full surprises! First day to office... I am lost, don't know from where to start. And over everything I am worried to know how Sparkle's doing without me. So I kept pinging my sis, and she send me his pic, that was some relief. He was a good boy. I didn't make a hell out of the house. Had his cereal and milk. I did visit him during my lunch break, he was very happy to see me, and nearly pounced onto me. It was Maple who missed me a lot, she was upset when I was going back after my lunch break. But that life, I need to maintain an identity of mine other than being a mother, wife and daughter.

March month was like a storm, it came and went by and I didn't even realize.We visited my in-law for Easter. And with sparkle its like I am dreaming, he is 6 month old already Oh i thoroughly enjoyed our Easter. Maple made so many friend there, she was almost playing with them for the whole day, will post some pics later. here are two new clicks: April will start with me going back to my routine office work. Hence inorder to avoid the monotonous shades in my life, I have planned to add all new color into it. begining with: 1. puchse of a new cell phone to capture every thing tat make me smile and happy 2. Buy a sewing machine to try my hand into making things 3. making more clear area for my sparkle, whoz soon gonna explore things and places around him.
