Being Father -V


Being Father…..

Just few years back I was standing in the hospital lobby and waiting to hear “first cry” of my child. Door opened and nurse came out carrying baby in her hand, started looking people standing around and said “ where is the father of the baby” I stepped forward….She said “ your wife has asked to give the baby first in your hands”.

I took the baby in my hands, it was a baby girl. I was so cherished that could not even attar a single word, was just looking to my sweet daughter. Then somehow after few second, managed to say thanks to the Nurse.

Since from than till today time has moved so fast….!!!

Today morning my elder daughter turns 8. I got up at 5.30 AM with my wife. We have blown so many balloons, got lot of chocolates to shower on her. Chocolate cake with the candle was ready. Laptop was on with the Birthday song.

Lights switched on, I played the birthday song, lots of balloons around her. She got up with the surprise. Then my wife brought the cake with the candle of 8. It was her favorite chocolate cake. She had a big bite of the cake.

She got ready for the school, With her favorite dress and bag full of chocolates for all her school friends, with the repeated confirmation from her mom that she will be offered everything of her choice today from morning breakfast “ Aaloo ka Paratha” then “Chola Bhatura” and in the evening Dine out.

She came back from the school, spreading the chocolates all around. Now it’s time for her township’s friends for the chocolate (Specially demanded 5star for all). She was busy all day enjoying and sharing chocolates. She came rushing back to home as soon as I came from office. We are going out at her favorite place @ LM, Where chocolate cake and chocolate sprinkles were waiting for her!!!!

 

So much of celebration with no worries of past and future, this is called as childhood.

I love this and will make sure that my children’s outside and a child within me will enjoy every bit of it…..That’s the best way of life I have chosen!!!!
