Me : Amma, how are you?
Amma : let that be.. You tell me first.. How is panju doing? Are you sterilizing his feeding bowls & spoons properly? Don't bring the porridge anywhere near him when its too hot.. Don't be busy reading while he's playing, or he'll put something in his mouth... btw what's he doing now? sleeping?? then why did u call now?u can take rest only when he's sleeping...

:) See how things change when you have a kid. Everyone and everything else becomes less important.
agree with Ava :-)
Suddenly the world starts rotating around a little bundle of joy
Though I agree with Ava & WIAN but I will also add that Mom's have one track mind. They are always more interested in our well being and rest all ceases to exist for them.
Av, Wian, Smi-
Out of the many congratulatory msgs that I got once I gave birth, one was this "Life would never be the same, be warned!". How true that is in all aspects...
This phone conversations I've mentioned came to my mind last night for no reason and I was smiling away at how the routine questions have had such a sea change!!
and Smi ur right. Even when my baby used to scream uncontrollably, my mom used to say "that's alright, u finish ur lunch first, I'll sing and pacify the baby"
when I'm midway attacking my lunch that is
btw peoples, why haven't anyone said cho chweet to the cute nick name?

ok first of all ...Cute Nick name ...seriously!

hi R,
Hee hee hee - kids are the principle - grand kids are the 'interest' - so thats logical no.
Why panju?
oops i saw that but missed to comment.
Panju is absolutely adorable name. how did this nick pop up?
cp - panju means cotton :) i loved the sound of the word!
Angel:oooh! thankews:)
eisi-i hv always been paranoid about what names could mean in other languages.though, for this one, i just liked it, that's it:)
wian-my mom was calling him that frequently..lol, btw the name gets twisted with synonymous words heh
that was such a sweet post...something little girl lost and yearning about it
hard to give up your place centre stage, isnt it? but moms are moms, and under all that grand baby love, they love their own babies first :)
ms-so true so true! I'm smiling away thinking of how I used to think its too much affection dictating over me.and now people conveniently hv forgotten me,.sigh
ha..ha..ha.. this post gave a deja vu to me! :)
