Too many definitions are changing in my life as a mom! :-D
1. A day begins when baby wakes up and ends when baby sleeps.... the sun has no role to play in the definition of a day anymore! Also a day does not have 24 hours, in fact am not sure what it has...!
2. Silence is when baby is feeding. Maybe I should rephrase that to read ONLY when baby is feeding.
3. If I am buttoned up I am ready to meet visitors...that's as dressed up as I get.
4. A normal day is when the baby does as expected AND nothing else falls apart! It is rare, maybe I only dream of it.
5. Middle age is when you have a baby.
6. Every action has an equal and opposite reaction: More the baby cries for me, more I feel like running away.
7. My house is no longer my space.
8. Washing clothes remains in continuous present tense, ALWAYS.
9. Gravity is a very powerful force...it even weighs on my eyelids. (Oh yes, I have rediscovered my eyelids!!)
10. Husband and wife talking to each other on whatsapp is no longer hilarious! It's completely understandable. (Maybe I will soon understand the need for spouses to check in on FB too)
11. Healthy family is an oxymoron. One of us is bound to be sick all the time.
12. Serials/movies with subtitles are practical not hilarious, yes even if we can understand english we need subtitles to watch TV. (Which is only on mute these days)
13. There are only three kinds of people: People with older kids are wise, people with younger kids are in need of advise, people with very old kids are plain condescending.
14. Maids are the people in control of your life. Period.
15. Joints hurting is as much second nature as breathing.
16. I love changing channels as much as my husband.... ssshhh maid's watching.
17. Things needn't be nonsensical to irritate me.
18. Doctors should provide their mobile numbers, what do you mean they have a life??
19. A five day vacation is a rushed vacation. We need another vacation to recover from such vacations.
20. Life is full of 'big' decisions- Who gets to hold the baby for her next vaccine, to leave baby on the floor or carry baby, to feed baby or make baby sleep, to burp or not to burp, go for a walk or play at home.......
Am sure you get the drift by now... ;-)
