Getting toddlered-Part 2

In human sense, toddlers are totally insane hysterical little humans. It is just that they are way too cuter. And hence the former becomes insignificant and trivial. 

Imagine a tiny human screaming in its top notch pitch demanding for some useless thing that you threw in the garbage a week ago. (utterly helpless)
Imagine a little one pooping in the middle of your house and demands immediate clean up. (Yes, DEMANDS!!) And you had to prioritize it thus muting your ongoing zoom call.
Imagine a tiny cute alien wearing your half destroyed accessories and showing off like a little super star and all you could do is smile and put control over the trauma that it had just caused.
Imagine a little human pouring over a bowl of cereals onto your file stack just because she didn't like the taste of the raisins that were in it! (Byeee...... Off to redo my assignment !)
Welcome to toddler life!! 

Going through a tough phase? Spend a couple of minutes here.. You will thank me later!

Situation 1:
It was one pleasant morning and we had arranged for a photoshoot session in a couple of days. Me and Aara decided to twin this time and I took Aara to choose her costume so that I could find a similar one for me too. Off we went to our favourite designer. I was picturizing this little baby doll in the little mermaid version, the cute princess version and the pretty fairy version with cute little wings and a wand. Awwwwwwww... (Can't stop imagining how cute she would look). Whenever I saw my friends twinning with their daughters, I used to envy them. I had always wished for a baby girl so that I could doll her up the way I wanted and twin with her so that the world goes "Wow! What a mom daughter duo". And I could give that sheepish yet proud grin communicating -Yes that's my little product you are talking about! So this was my day.. this was the day I had been waiting for all this time. I was excited. 

Yeah.  So coming back.  The store keeper asked her so politely what she wanted to be, "Elsa or Rapunzel, my doll? I guess you would want to be Cinderella. Am I right?" 
"No princess. I'm a PIRATE ", my daughter exclaimed in a rough voice pretending to be one.

The shop keeper looked at me in dismay. Finding a much more intense version of his reaction on my face, he quickly handed over the pirate costume to me.  

I had always believed I had given birth to a princess- never knew it was a pirate version of me. (*facepalm*)
I never wished for something like this thereafter.. 

Situation 2:
I came home back from work, just to find a perfectly peaceful situation at home. my toddler playing with her acrylic paint and my hubby boy sunk into his favourite magazine. You never know the intensity of the word "peaceful" when I say this unless you have been there. How elited I was to see her fingers dumped on those beautiful colors. A streak of red on her button nose, a slash of yellow on her forehead, she looked like a little rainbow with limbs. The way she was moving her tiny fingers over some box like thing lying there.. Awww... (may be she was making a mother's day note for me) 😛 The inner me was damn excited!!

My hubby boy sitting there with proud facial features expecting me to congratulate about how well a dad he is. My eyes turned to hearts, promising him a special date through those unsaid words. My daughter then quickly brought the master piece to me and handed it over. I slowly lifted it up, my smile still expanding into a wide grin which now had spread from my right ear to the left. 

The box like thing was quite heavy. With utmost care I took it from her , my eyes still glued onto her pretty eyeballs that reminded me of the puss in boots scene.



My heart melted like fresh butter on a hot sauce pan. How lucky am I to have given birth to such a cute little human. My mommy instincts congratulated me secretly within. Now coming to the box thing that I was holding, it really felt heavy and Aara placed it in my hands and continued to smile the same way. My eyeballs shifted their gaze from hers to the thing on my hand, the black box like thing had a strap. I could feel...
What on earth??....... 
My heart skipped a beat.. Actually No, it stopped beating !!!!
Every organ of mine froze..
It was the ONLY Louis Vuitton bag that I dared to own in my entire life.!!!!
.

A minute of silence would be too less... but still do it for me!
Just incase you were thinking of having kids.

Until next time,
Spreading smiles.

Feeling awkwardly awkward

In life we all come across some awkward humiliating situations, so awkward that you feel like getting metamorphosed into an ostrich all of a sudden so that you can shove your head into the soil and escape reality. Here are a few such moments we all would have confronted atleast once in our lives. 😒 Making eye contact with someone rushing toward your elevator, trying to get in, but the doors are already closing. 😒 When you narrate a terrible joke to your colleagues, and they don't hear you, so they ask you to repeat it, making the terrible joke even more terrible and useless. In the process of narrating it for the second time, you feel like stopping halfway, thinking, "Dude! I think you're wasting your time." 😒 When you're watching a movie with your family, and out of the blue, the couple starts making out, and your mom stares at you as if you were the assistant director of the movie. You say, "Errr... Popcorn anyone?" and quickly escape into t

10 Silly and dumb things we all do

When was the last time you did something dumb or absurd? No matter how poised and elegant we tend to present ourselves everyday ,every moment, we always end up showing our fat-headed self at one point or the other. May it be FROM running to fetch a bubble wrap that has just fallen off the delivered package TO purposely ignoring an email and replying after an Era, that it ended up in the spam folder (What? Really?? What a rude human you must be!??) 😛 FROM secretly peeping into a near by trolley in the supermarket and judging their existence TO trying to overtake the fast walker in the pavement and end up walking like a pregnant ostrich in a hurry. FROM metally threatening your laptop to throw it off from the cliff, while it takes ages to reboot or when the screen freezes, TO trying to enact a lame sentimental movie scene (that you binge watched) while the water droplets drag themselves down on your face from the top- in the shower. All of us have been there- behaving like a

7 Annoying things people usually fake about

Finding fake things and people is lot more easier today than bumping into their genuine counterparts. In fact the most common thing people fake about these days is about having an exemplary, ultimate and the best weekend, while you would have in reality just dragged yourself from room to room in your dirty pyjamas binge watching your favourite Netflix series for the twenty fifth time with a huge basket of popcorn which you engulfed all by yourself. Faking has really become an everyday business today and it is okay only unless and until it doesn't annoy the person in front of you. Have you come across really exasperating and pesky people who annoyingly pretend certain things that it becomes so obvious.... so obvious.. that it is fake??!! 😒 Well here is a list of things that people by and large fake about..... 😏 Looks "Make up? No not at all.. This is how I wake up. May be you should start drinking more water", says the lady who I happen to stumble upon ev

Siblings - The struggle is real

Perks of having a sibling - the annoying one Scenario 1: Me: *Smiling at funny memes on my phone* My sibling : Mom! She has been chatting with her boyfriend for the past 25 hours and 25 minutes !! Me : #@$% Scenario 2:  Me : *walks by* My sibling: Shut up Me : No ,you shut up! My mom : *ye lls my name* Me : @#$%! Scenario 3: My sibling : *hits my head with a hammer*  Strangles me to death* Pu shes me into the bathtub full of water* T hrows me down from the balcony* Me *touch her with my pinky finger* My mom : How could you do it to that poor soul? She could have hurt herself badly?!!!!! Me : @#$%! Scenario 4: Me: *watching tv* My sibling: Quickly fetches the remote and changes (though it was her favourite show too) Me : Hey ! Don't you like it too. Come let's watch together. My sibling : *reactionless* (change change change change for no reason) Me :@#$%! Next day:  My friend :

Relationship threshold

PC: the_capture_diaries Relationship!!! One of the most complicated words of all times! (atleast that's how we are made to believe) But is it? Nah! Not really. Just imagine- you get a soul mate, a confidante, an escort, a playmate, a companion, almost a complete family package including your siblings, your enemy, your crush, the annoying kid next door - all in one - for free free free. It's more like having an twin- an unadopted twin of yours with a lifetime warranty (who is technically not your twin ofcourse) with whom you can share goods and chattels, irritate, feel loved, miss, kiss and what not!? Have you ever rolled back to how it all began?? You meet your someone special , you get a spark- a thunderbolt strikes, you hear bells everywhere, there is music in your head and the juggling of every other cell in your body, butterflies here and there and everywhere and then finally you realize you are in LOVE. Initially you be all dressed up and poise and well behav
