Recently I had been to D's best friend's home. They have a daughter named Rdheema. Don't be confused with the spelling, as I was. In her first b'day gift, we had written "Happy B'day to you Ridhima." Alas, we found later on the b'day banner, "Happy Birthday to Rdheema". May be numerology spells it that way. Anyway, that's the point that I want to make here.
I had a great time with her that day. I love children, thus I could not resist myself from spending maximum time with her than with her mother, P. Initially, she was silently sitting on the chair, staring at us, thinking where have I seen them. She was a bit hesitant, however, I guess she recollected that just before a week she has been with me for a couple of hours, and we were roaming on the calm and quite road of a newly built apartment. After a while she started showing some activity by showing her finger to the TV, trying to mumble something, making sort of cute sounds.
She then started to ask for the biscuits by showing her fingers. Now there were three types of biscuits. I gave her one, she didn't take it and still showed her finger to the plate. She was not at all taking the one I was giving her. Same happened with another one. Then came Aliva biscuits turn. And yes, the moment I took it near her hand she immediately took it and put it in her mouth. She repeated the process several times. The she was full. So she started to show her stuffs. Gradually she took us to all the rooms, she wasn't able to tell anything by words. But was telling by her gestures and by pointing to stuffs.
She started mixing with us very much. She started to laughing with me, playing with me, asking me to stick her small bear doll to the wardrobe, to the door. And then she is pull it out and throw it. She was behaving with me as if I was of her age. She was fighting with me too, getting annoyed for I was not sticking it where she wanted me to. And was making all sort of noises, some blabbering. P came and asked her why is she getting angry. Then she became quite for sometime. P said, "She is thinking that you are of her age, as you are playing with her. So she is shouting." She continued shouting, laughing, smiling, raffling around. Oh!! I too didn't have that much of energy that she has.
She was looking too cute when she was laughing. When her father, B, was singing song to her she was moving head from left to right and right to left. She was enjoying her time. Till night 11 she was awake and was having fun. She has become a fan of the advertisement of Aliva and the biscuit too. She watches those ads. or the cartoon and has her food. Ah! it needs a lot of patience to deal with the kids, a lot of it.
Well, KIDS - their cute smile, adoring touch, lovable gestures, innocent talks - that's the purest thing available in the world. And I thank God, for blessing every human to go through that phase at least once. No wonder we tend to loose that innocence as we grow up. Can't do anything about that, since being adult and having the feeling of responsibility and becoming that ceiling for someone else, is a wonderful feeling too. After all if we have the same experience then that too would become routine and we would loose passion in it too.
I hope you had a wonderful time reading this article.
Keep smiling.
