Its been almost an year.. We are preparing for Aarav's First Birthday party. Just an year back; we were waiting for Aarav. Back then name Aarav wasn't there but yes, we were waiting eagerly for him, more than anything. Aarav is my almost one year old son, he will be turning one on 15 August this year.
I have been thinking of writing about my experience with motherhood from quite long time but you can imagine what does a working mum's schedule looks like. Between office and home I never got time to pen down my experiences with my little Son. Today I decided I will start my blog and start writing. I want to capture everything that Aarav has given me. You must be wondering that what a hardly one year old kid can give to a mother, apart from the motherhood and the joy of a child.
Through this one year; I have seen so many sides to myself. I have grown tremendously as a person, as a human being and Yes, I have grown as a mother. I wasn't never of those motherly kinds, somewhere in my heart I never wanted to have kids as found them too unmanageable. Not my cup of tea kinds.. But I guess one is never born motherly types because mother is born when a child is born. and that mother actually grows with the child.
Everyone always asks me "How did you feel when you took him in your arms for the first time?" and I wonder why I never has that special kind of feeling or tears in my eyes as they show in pictures. My bond with Aarav grew over time. At first instance I only felt responsible for him. Then the feeling of responsibility was taken over by fondness and then to affection and love. and if you ask me today; I am a doting mother. completely, deeply, madly in love with my child. Today my day starts with his twinkling eyes and killing smile and ends with his innocent sleeping face.
