No Day Offs For Mothers!

It's a long day and for mommies there are no day offs I realize. I have been home starting April to pursue my passions (read blogging, setting up projects, travelling and being with mumma). Her day starts at 5 am in the morning. She hardly sleeps at night, syringes have elongated in her brain and that leads to unbearable amount of pain. I don't see her cry or shout, I have been hearing her mummer god's chants in the night, hoping she would get to sleep. It's 11 am and she has winded up everything, all household chores and preparing lunch. Dad doesn't come home for lunch, she still makes a lavish spread you know. In between all the work, she began having pains in her right arm and her back and she decided to lay down on the bed. I happened to hold my camera and I ended up taking this photo of her. Looking at her, I know there are no day offs for mothers and that doesn't make her happy. But know what mother's don't complaint.

Call your mother today or give her hug for she is on a job, 365 days, 366 sometimes. 

100 Million Expressions

I remember this picture was taken at my birthday party in 2012, Okay I am the younger one of the two. Mom insisted that I should celebrate my birthday with her, daddy and my elder sister that year. So I kind of listened to her and also ended up doing what I intended do. I called all my friends over for a dinner party. We all had a ball, with everyone giving gifts (who doesn't love them) and with my mum being around. This photo was taken by an extremely talented friend who had then began shooting, Swarn at the time of cake cutting and ruining my face stage. Swarn thank you for a million bucks photo and expressions you managed to capture. Ma looks charming in this photo like always and her curly hair, they supposedly look worse in monsoons, July, well that's what she always says, even though I beg to differ, at least in this photo!
