Once a mom forever a superwoman!
Yesterday evening I saw my bhabhi (sister in law) teaching
her both kids age group 4 yrs and 2.5 yrs together and was amazed on how she
would react all excitedly saying GOOD GIRL to both d girls time and again every
time they wrote something and looked up to see their mom’s face for assurance. My
younger neice tried the same with me and I got tired in a couple of times
repeating the comment GOOD GIRL.

It was then it struck me after school time that motherhood
is such a difficult and never ending task. As kids whenever we wrote an essay
on MY MOM we always included the sentence that “mom gets up early morning and
works till late” and also in between the whole essay we filled it with all the
different tasks our mom does for us. As we grew up we became a little too
occupied with our friends and other issues in life to praise our mom when she deserves
being praised every day like a daily prayer.
When I saw bhabhi playing the same role even after hearing
from her that she doesn’t get time for herself, the excitement which she got on her face
everytime she said GOOD GIRL amazed me. She’s the same age as me and here I am
yet not even ready for the responsibility of marriage and I see my bhabhi and
other cousin’s playing the role of a MOM with all its challenges and yet
smiling every time their kids look upto them. Also worth mentioning I hear a
lot of people saying these days that they don’t want to have kids because they
believe in the saying “work harder, party harder” and kids don’t fit in this
saying. But I am still old school and believe a woman’s life would never feel
complete without the colors of motherhood in them. Agreed it’s a big scaring
responsibilities but a fear worth facing just to feel those soft tinie miniee
hands in your own and the hug u get when you reach home and they come running
into your arms.
Hats off to all the mom’s and especially to my mom…
LOVE YOU MOM!!!
P.S : A special thanks to my mom because I have been a
pretty spoiled pampered kid in my childhood. Nobody else could convince me but
my mom!!! :)
