Resilience in Children.

A very informative post by UTBT.

All
parents have an in built reflux that wants to reach out and wipe away all their
child’s misery. But are they really that delicate? The truth is children are
pretty resilient. Much resilient than what we give them credit for!

She has also written about the childhood of Nobel Laureate Dr.Mario Capecchi. Very inspiring. We are waiting for a follow up post too.

Separation anxiety.

I am dreading the day my daughter will start play school. I am finding all sorts of excuses to not let her fly the nest anytime soon. So I could relate to this touching post by Fuzzy.

There have been days and times during this one year where I have longed to get back to work and now when the time has actually come near I am feeling sad that the year is going to end.I had a wonderful time watching little baby Ina soon to turn into a toddler.I am now worried how will I stay away from her and go for work.I will surely miss her terribly,miss all those little naps we took,those leisurely walks we went for,the stories we read and games we played,the songs we heard together and danced to,I know by the end of the day I will still come home to her and she from her daycare and we will still have fun but it would still not be the same way as being around 24/7.

Hats off to all the working moms who take the tough decision to leave their babies first. I cried when starting school, college and even work. I realize I have issues!

What do we learn from our kids?

I have always wondered if mothers can be atheists. This post has made me realize its almost impossible. What do you think?

I’ve learnt that my womb has only been an instrument to bring this soul into the world and once brat is an adult my work will have been done, and what I do to bring brat up is only repaying my karmic debt to my mother for bringing me up. I believe now in the verse written by Kahlil Gibran which says your children are not yours to keep.I’ve learnt that the sky is different colours at various parts of the day and Jai Jai Bhagwanji actually sits up there with his crayon and watercolours to keep changing the look.

This reminds me to publish the post I have in my draft for a very long time on Moms and their belief in God.
