As MJ turns 5 months today, there are thousands of things in my mind, all revolving around one fact – that he has grown up. And that too, quite fast.
There are so many things lying around the house, waiting to be thrown away – deworming syrups, powders, a chotu bed. He won’t need any of it now. In a few days, even his collar won’t fit him anymore. I remember the day I’d got it…I’d bought the tiniest size available but even that was big for him! He looked so funny that I was on the floor laughing and my poor baby was probably wondering what was wrong with me! I’ve carried him around in baskets…cant do that anymore!
But the good part is that I haven’t missed out on him growing up. I’ve been there…from sickness to training, and everything in between. From marking his height on the wall every week, to memorizing vaccination schedules, I’ve done it all! It’s a strange feeling. All this while you keep wondering when he’ll grow up…and when he finally does, you want to rewind and go back into time!
* There have been nights
When I’ve looked out of my window
And wondered
Why the sky doesn’t have stars anymore
I don’t do that now
Coz I know
My baby’s eyes shine better
Than all of them put together! *
