Although every lady is working, whether at home or office. But here, I mean a working lady who is earning money and helping her husband in making things easy for the family and giving better education to the kids. She looks very energetic, independent and self-confident.

But in her heart, she feels many times that she missed the childhood of kids. The kids look for a friend in their mom. No doubt, they are getting best education and every facility but what about the love and time they want? They come from school and find that the mom is not at home. The maid is serving them food. No one is there to listen to their crazy talks like what happened in the school etc. The kids feel alone. This thing is very well in the mind of mother but she feels helpless sometimes. Here are some situations:
1. The child rings her in office and says” Mom, I dont feel like eating what you have made for lunch. I wish to eat Maggie. Hope you were with me at this time…”
2. The child is not feeling well but she has an important meeting at the office.
3. Today is PTM in the school but she can’t go as important delegates have to arrive in the office.
Means she is at office, but her mind and heart is in kid.
This is the stage,every working lady passes through at some time in her life…
I love the childhood of my kids. The kids are so innocent, naughty and carefree all the time. We also become kids while playing with them and forget all our tensions.Saying rhymes, doing silly acts, playing “I spy you” or “ring-a ring-a roses” with them fills us with so much pleasure…
But as they grow, all these things are replaced by burden of studies and that small kid is lost somewhere. If we try to find that kid, we find a comparatively growing teenager who does not take so much interest in those funny things.
My elder son is 7 years old and younger one of 3 years. I see a lot of difference in them. Due of the fact that the elder got more love and affection because of being first child in the family,he was also very naughty.But now with increase in studies, he finds very less time for such cute talks. I feel my younger one will also loose his naughtiness which i simply adore.
I say him” Aadi, will you be with me as small as you are now?”
And he says smiling” Mamma, I want to grow big and wear skates like Bhaiya…”
I want to keep my kids with me as kids always.Am I being selfish?? I think with growing age, kids become less dependent on mom. Is this thing paining me?? I don’t know but simply want to live this life forever, which I know , is not possible….The only way to keep the memories fresh is keeping them with me in the form of videos or photos so that i can cherish them always..
I am starting writing from today. The reason is that I want to store the memories of my kids somewhere so that I can think of their childhood even at my age of 55 or 60. Now my elder kid BHAVEY is of 6 and a half years and little one of almost 3 years. Both the two angels are proud of my life. Both are very much naughty. Bhavi is naughty but listens to others as he is the big brother so everyone says bhavi u r big na...let him do whatever he wants...Aadi is very clever. He does everything and blames on bhavi.
One day Aadi threw water on the bed. We asked"AADI who did this?", then he very smartly said" Bhaiya did this". He knows how to get saved from a particular situation.
