Letter to my tiny heart_ the motherhood journey


Dear tiny heart,

Every good and perfect gift is from God, so do we believe about your life that is still growing little by little inside of me. We know you are one best gift God is preparing for our small family: your dad, your brother and me. We can’t wait to meet you soon.
While our journey half-way through had fared well, I hope to see your beautiful face soon.
While your daddy and I were thinking to welcome you in our small family: our world. We prayed about your life even before you grew this size in my womb. You are loved from the very day we decided to have you.

By this time around when your older brother, Rishon, was inside my womb, 3 years ago I began writing a letter for him. So that he would one day read about how excited and happy we were to welcome him. You are not an exception, whether you are going to be a little brother or a little sweet angel to your older brother, we are equally excited to embrace you inside our love. We love you both with the same measure of love God gave us.

In the love of God and in the love of our love, there is no first or second. You are as loved and eagerly expected as we did when we were having your brother. You know, you are going to be even more pampered by us, especially your brother, who is so excited to meet you. He prays for you before going to sleep and you might be hearing inside how a little boy used to talk and ask you ‘if you are playing or sleeping’ almost every day and than plant a kiss on my belly hoping that you feel him. Your daddy did the same to him while he was five or six months inside my belly so he must have learned that from him.

And your daddy, does that even to you . For him, you both are the symbol of our love and we do not part or divide our love. He prays for you daily and he is even more excited to be a hands-on daddy , now that he have more experience of holding or putting a baby to sleep from your brother.
We prayed and decided to meet you three years after your older brother because we want to make sure that we give you the love and attention like the way we did to your brother. In no ways we want you to feel emotionally neglected and for that we need to adjust and balance the time.

Now is the perfect time to re-live the mother in me again. Re- visiting the natural habitat of a mother. I am more anxious to have you in my arms and to experience motherhood and all the mentalhood associated to it.
Be safe and be sure that a whole lot of happy and excited hearts awaits to see you soon.


Love
Mom

Redefining Parenthood: Equal Responsibilities, Equal Love

As I navigated through challenges of parenting our sons, I couldn't help but reflect on the importance of shared responsibilities in our household. A friend's experience resonated with me - her husband refused to change diapers or care for their child, citing it as the mother's job. While mothers have a unique bonding experience, it's essential to recognize that both parents have an equal share of responsibility. Honestly, my home isn't perfect, now that we are parenting two boys but we strive for balance. When I returned to work, my husband took on childcare duties, adjusting our schedules to ensure our sons received the care they needed. It wasn't seamless, but he grew into an exceptional caregiver, taking on roles traditionally associated with mothers. It's infuriating to hear people refer to fathers caring for their kids as 'babysitting' . A baby-sitter is someone who takes care of a child temporarily. A father caring for his children is simply b...

Rewrite Your Story

We've all got parts of our past we wish we could redo. Moments we replay in our heads, wishing we'd done things differently. But here's the truth: your past isn't a life sentence. It's just one chapter in your story. What matters most is what you choose to do now. Every day, you get to turn the page, write a new story, and decide that your story doesn't end with pain, mistakes, guilt, or heartache. You're not stuck, and you're not defined by what happened or the choices you made. You're evolving, and the beauty of life is that you get to take the pen back and write something new – something true to who you are now. So, stop looking back with regret. Your past shaped you, but it doesn't define you. Look forward with intention. You're in control of how your story ends, and trust me, it can still be extraordinary.

Decoding Delhi School Part 2

A truly appreciable format!  As a parent, I've always been curious about my son's performance in the entrance exam, not because I'm obsessed with marks, but because we relocated from a place with different educational standards and I want to know the areas we might be lacking to reach the standards here. My son and I worked diligently for weeks, revising concepts and basics in grammar and math. So, it was thrilling to receive a comprehensive assessment sheet, complete with insightful feedback on his strengths and weaknesses from the evaluating teacher. As a parent, this is exactly what I look for in a school - transparency, constructive feedback, and a genuine interest in helping my child grow. Kudos to Delhi School for setting a high standard! In conclusion, I'm impressed and grateful for the school's thorough assessment process. It's clear that they prioritize understanding each child's unique needs and potential. I'm excited to see my son thrive in th...
