Smitha tagged me to list 5 things I love about being a Mother...
Mummy - hmmm, a word that gave a cozy feeling whenever I got in a mess as a kid.. And I still feel the same.
A hug from her and all would be okay. She would shout and scold and the next minute pamper :)
....
And I am in her shoes now. And Man, it sure is tough walking in her shoes...Oops- Woman, it is tough walking in your shoes.
There are times when I wonder if I will be anywhere close. and then sometimes when I know for certain that I will be pretty close, and then again there are those when I think no one can ever be as good.
Life has changed ...The way we live life has changed.
We were like nomads - living off the suitcase, cant do that now-rather dont want to do that now.
I remember this couple we met through a common friend and we were going for a picnic at the beach and asked them to join us. Their baby was a couple of months then, and the mom was soooo reluctant at the spur of the moment plan (the dad didnt mind, but the Mom was firm...)
And I thought they just had to pack a diaper bag and the beach was just an hour away after all, what is all the fuss about?..Well, I know now ..
Eeverything changes !!... haha I know avoiding beaches is not something that you would want to do, but the point is - priorities change.
Thats Motherhood...
hmmm...
It makes me realise not to take my mom for granted, though I still do it often.
And I have begun to miss ma terribly, now that she has gone back after a two month stay...
(smitha: that is the first thing that comes to my mind too- never to take parents for granted)
Makes me extremely patient (at times) and protective..
Grounds me...makes me emotional...
Makes me forget everything else when I see my sunny boy smile - a half - smile ;) And i smile back.
Makes me forget that I am a mom when he is asleep, but when I hear him cry, he is the world and everything else is just a background.
(didnt think i could pinpoint 5, but here they are.)

You've done the tag so beautifully!! It is tough walking in our mom's shoes isn't it? I feel the same way...
Life sure changes.. I can totally identify with your living out of a suitcase bit :) We were the same - now, its a totally different story :)
Lovely tag! Good to knwo that the new mommy is enjoying mommyhood :)
Yes motherhood is crazy, and the best phase. I just became a gran mom, and now I say...this is even greater a phase.
Yes, Dear enjoy your baby, and everyday shall be a miracle, living your life thru your childs eyes is more fun. I had done a post long ago, on my children...and I realized..Time flies..so live every moment...and look after yourself and the baby..and smile at the roller coaster days you will live...Yes, life is never going to be the same...Bless you, and the lil' one.
@Smitha: Living out of the suitcase :) yeah it was fun but then comes a time when u get tired of it, isn't it.
.................
@ Poonam Ji: Congratulations on becoming a gran mom !! :)
