[9] 20 months

Dear baby,
You turned 20 months old. Wherever we go, people keep asking me your age; complete strangers and also people who we know every well. I started saying ‘almost 20′ a couple of days back. I get a feeling of nostalgia remembering your teen months. Somehow 20 months sounds like a big thing. As big [...]

Dear baby,
You are full of energy and its really amazing to see your emerging personality. You are fun to be with. The biggest thing that happened during the past month is you are starting to treat your father and me equally. You understand that both of us are important now, whereas you had taken me [...]

… plus 10 days…
Dear baby,
We are in this time of your life where we start to say your age in years rather than months. One and a half years. Oh dear, when did time run so fast? I look at other babies who are learning to walk and think that my child is almost that [...]

Dear big boy,
Yeah, that’s what you are. Things have changed so much that I have even stopped searching for my little baby. Not only am I convinced that the little baby is not going to return, but I have been enjoying the present so much, and I have absolutely no time to think about the [...]


Dear Baby,
You sit in your bed and cry for me. I put my computer down and run towards you, like I always do when you wake up from sleep. I took you into my arms and you lay down on my shoulder. I start rubbing your back and you start meddling with my earring. For [...]

You are such a fast learner and you behave so big boy-like in front of younger babies. [...]

Dear Baby,
Some of these days I wake up wondering where my little baby has gone; the baby who after waking up would call for mommy and wait to be picked up. All I can see curled up next to me is a charming handsome little boy who wakes up and climbs down from the [...]

Dear son,
Time flies. Yes dear, time is gone before even I realise it. At every stage of yours, I’ve been saying the same thing but now I really can’t tell if life were any faster than it is now. You are so full of activities and energy that I [...]

Dear Baby Son,
You are officially a toddler now, following the latest development of taking a few steps without help. I should also add “when you wish to”. Otherwise you just think that holding someone’s hand while walking is fun. You really do not need support. You just need that comfort of having someone with you [...]
