So I'll just simply shout it out from the rooftop (or rather, my laptop :P), that
I have a DAUGHTER!!!!!
God!!!! I remember the first time I used the words "my daughter" in a conversation some weeks ago, I stopped mid-sentence, wondering if it had all really happened or if it was a dream. Well, it did really happen, so here's the when, where & how:
'When' was 31 Aug - she surprised us by arriving a week before the due date :) 'Where' was Bangalore and 'how' was a normal delivery (thank You God again!!!!), following a completely "uneventful" - to use the word from my medical file - pregnancy (more heartfelt thanks to God).
But while the pregnancy itself was uneventful, life in the last trimester and in the two months since certainly has been very eventful, hence the long absence from the blog. I missed this space terribly, missed writing, not to mention the dear friends I made here (thanks to all of you who enquired about us!), and I definitely will catch up with everyone soon. Now that I've put up this initial piece, hopefully the blogging will pick up pace again.
In the meanwhile, here's my darling little Kristyn, born a mini replica of her papa, but now slowly starting to look like me. Either way, she remains the best of us :D
Congratulations!!!!!!!!!!!!

ReplyDeleteCongratulations to the proud mama & papa! Kristyn is adorable.
ReplyDeleteYou know,Shalom I felt immensely proud of myself the day I gave birth to my li'l one!
agreed the father has as much a role to play,but to nurture your precious little with utmost care while she is within you,and finally be able to bring her out into the world makes you feel so empowered that you realize its no less a feat accomplished!
Each day I see my li'l one grow up I realize how blessed my husband & I are!
Children truly are a blessing!
All the best wishes to the proud parents and li'l angel :)
