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!!!!
Good one!
