16 August 2012 - Granny has arrived

               I had an appointment with my doctor yesterday.

               Your grand mother has come from India 2 days ago to America to welcome you! She and your dad were with me when I went to the hospital yesterday. Your heart beat is 150 per minute. Your granny didn't realize it at first that she was hearing your heartbeat. But later when she got to know that, there was a broad smile on her face!

               Your granny has brought a lot of eatables for you and I make it reach you. America is new to her and she still has not come out of jet lag. Her supplies from India for her grand daughter includes frocks, towels, bed sheets, baby blankets, pillow for you, clothes, bangles, 'kaadige', powder dabba, puff, socks, frilled under wears and so on... Some 'arishtas', 'lehas' and ayurvedic medicines for me to take and once again that is for your growth. She also has brought colour papers, gift wraps, paints, colour threads and feathers for me to make a baby scrap book. So indirectly even that is for you along with all the food items she has brought! She is my mom and not even a single item exclusively for me! How can I not be jealous when all the attention I used to get is diverting from me to you?!
