Aa Lalu Mamma

Aa Lalu motherhood.It is a wonderful experience of being a mother of two.Have two different memories and has to behave differently with each one of them.One is silent, timid, sombre, calm, innocent,responsible and soft natured and other one is naughty,cranky and much more.Wonder how the elder one survives in this bad world,she learns to climb furniture from her younger sister, who like a P.E. teacher teaches her each step to do.

This time i have been tagged by two lovely ladies IHM and Smitha.The tag is about "what i like best about being about mother".The tag says i have to write five things I love about being a mother.

The five things i love being a mother is:-

1.Calling me amma,mom,mama,amadu

2.Endless blow of flying kisses she gives me after getting into the school bus every morning

3.Begs me not to cry when i become emotinal, wipes my tears with her tiny hands.

4.They both give me a hug soon after getting up,their eyes are still closed.

5.When i am angry she runs to me before i say anything and says a lolu mama (i love you mama) and all my angry dissolves like a ice cube.

I wanna write more........

1.Pain of begin operated just vanished after seeing her for the first time.Unshaped head,hairy
face,thin long fingers with long nails,pinkish body wrapped in a cloth and cling ed to me on the bed. When young used to cry a lot for a small cut and now doesn't mind even if the stitches hurt me.I have taken snaps of her fingers,her legs,her hands,her hair and her face and now i show her this is you, when you were small.She just can't take out her eyes from those snaps.

2.Motherhood is enjoyed more when by baby gets down from the school bus,hugs and tells me that mama you are looking smart by leaving your hair.And also she gives me compliments i look good in jeans then the Salwars/sarees.

3.You know you are a mother when there is only one piece of cake left,which you have to share with your kids.

4.The sleepless night when she was down with fever.Before kids never missed my sleep,nor got up in between the sleep.But now getting up with slightest movement of hers.She wears anklets on her legs,now i can read the sound of her anklets.I can make out if she is getting up/she is changing her sides/she got down from the bed etc....

5.I have become more responsible and caring then before.Have to be careful in what i am talking,how i am behaving as kids learn from us.

6.My baby tells her father that amma has got lot of house work,today you order biryani and juice for amma,she wont cook today.And everyday morning she says amma you do your work today on holidays i will help you.She just loves to help me.She likes me to bake cake and till the cake is done she doesn't leave the kitchen.And always tries to lick the batter when i am not there in the kitchen.

7.Used to keep a book in handy to read about the milestones she crossed.Called up mom for very milestone she passed,like her first turn,her first word,her first step etc....And now she sees her little sister crossing those milestones and shouts amma she is crawling,she is walking,she is saying thanku.......

8.Now she is my mom.I don't know arabic and she learns from the school and she teaches me the letters.I am learning a new language from her.

There is much to write about the both my darlings.I don't have much expectation nor i want them to be a doctor/engineer/etc ,i only want them to be a good human beings.Sometimes i worry how they will face this bad world alone when they leave our house for good.
I would like Pooja ,ramya and sandhya do this tag,pls let me know when you do it.

btw today she got down from the bus with tears and started crying saying that her teacher didn't say bye to her:(

Varunavi! That was such a lovely, lovely post!!! Brought tears to my eyes!!! And you know, what I can relate to everything you said here... Apart from the fact that you have 2 daughters - you lucky lucky girl!! How I wish I could ahve 2 daughters - my idea of a perfect family :)
'Begs me not to cry when i become emotinal, wipes my tears with her tiny hands.' Poohi does that too :)and that must makes me cry some more :)

'They both give me a hug soon after getting up,their eyes are still closed.' - yes same here - and if she doesn't find me - she'll holler - 'Amma - Come and sleep - it's sleeping time!!!!'

' lolu mama' - sooo sooo sweet!

'Pain of begin operated just vanished after seeing her for the first time.Unshaped head,hairy
face,thin long fingers with long nails,pinkish body wrapped in a cloth and cling ed to me on the bed ' - I know!!!!!!!
'I don't have much expectation nor i want them to be a doctor/engineer/etc ,i only want them to be a good human beings' - Yes and happy people :)

Oh I loved your post! Hugs , loads of hugs to you and your little darlings!!!! Your post made me cry :)

Varunavi they make such fools of us, don't they??
"When i am angry she runs to me before i say anything and says a lolu mama (i love you mama) and all my angry dissolves like a ice cube."Lol ... loved reading about your little devils :) Or one angel, one devil :)
I think the second one is always smarter, first one is the good child :)
I loved how you added, "I wanna write more"... that's how mine also became much more than five points, we all cheat when we talk of our babies ;)Motherhood made me also more responsible!! I think we become more courageous too!! And little girls are little fashion designers, they love to tell us how to dress :)

And can any comfort be bigger than their little hands wiping your tears? Nope!

Saritha said...

Sandhya said...

Endless blow of flying kisses she gives me after getting into the school bus every morning - starter line itself is beautiful.

They both give me a hug soon after getting up,their eyes are still closed - Ask your husband to take a photograph of this scene, Varunavi, to show them after 10 years!

When i am angry she runs to me before i say anything and says a lolu mama (i love you mama) and all my angry dissolves like a ice cube - I lolu you, babies!

.Motherhood is enjoyed more when by baby gets down from the school bus,hugs and tells me that mama you are looking smart by leaving your hair.And also she gives me compliments i look good in jeans then the Salwars/saree - My son was selecting sarees for me to wear to his school!

Each and every sentence makes me remember my feelings with my children, Varunavi.

Very good post. God bless you and your family. Be happy always.

Varunavi, This tag is to make everyone emotional.

{{{Hugs}}} to your 2 little cuties who are so adorable and brighten up your day. As you said the pain of delivery vanishes upon seeing the face. No hurt is big when you see the smile on their face. After reading about your mom, I know you are blessed with best parenting skills so {{hugs}} to this great mother too.

Rashmi said...

hey varunavi..this post brought tears to my eyes....full of emotions..shows how much you all are enjoying with ur lil ones :-)

'Pain of begin operated just vanished after seeing her for the first time.Unshaped head,hairy
face,thin long fingers with long nails,pinkish body wrapped in a cloth and cling ed to me on the bed ' - Wish this happen with me too..i m too scared of this delivery thing :-)

Saritha said...

Don't be scared rashmi.My first delivery was normal,i was dam scared and was begging the doc to do operation,but doc always prefer normal,that is the best choice,no need laying down the full day after the delivey,where as for the operation one has to be bedridden for 15days,after a year also sometimes the stitches pain.Even there will be too much of food restriction...
Just do normal walking everyday until ur delivery.
Come back soon and write abt ur experiences....
