5:20 am : A Cold Sunday Morning. No alarm, yet the mind's alarm wakes me up on the dot, without fail every Sunday. I look at the boys, fast asleep. Mommy in me feels like letting them sleep for a few minutes more. I go to them and whisper, hey do you want to sleep in today or go for your football/cricket classes? The answer with sleepy eyes is YES AMMA,we will go to the ground.. The tone for the day is set with the enthusiasm the children have. 6:00 am The boys are ready in their uniforms, spic white for cricket and red for football. We still have 15 minutes so we decide to cycle to the ground for their sports practice. It is cold and nice, I enjoy the speckle of sunlight and the morning dew. Traffic is sparse with just the few newspaper boys and milkmen all cloaked up. To me chaperoning the boys for their respective classes is no chore. It is JOY.

Did the 26 characters waltz around you to your tune when you looked at them in grammar and made you feel like a super star when the marks were announced.

I revere these people, who certainly helped me motivate & push myself to do better all the time. Am sure we all have those ultra brainy friends who have no compulsion to study yet they are the scholars in class always raising the bar and scoring the coveted...
The word CORONA actually means the ring of light around the sun or the moon usually formed during an eclipse. In these current times I guess all of humanity has forgotten that interpretation of the word!! I am a working Mompreneur and this forced break has left me with a few or even no choices. Initially like everyone we also scoffed at the idea of panic and blamed on the media going out of hand in the way the virus was portrayed. Soon the thought changed to OMG, this is a reality, however the attitude was we are smart and we will tide by this and "this too shall pass". Today in just a matter of a few days, we have reached a stage of acceptance and resignation to the fact that it is, what it is and responsible citizenship is the need of the need of the hour. Everyday sees an overflow of wisecracks, parodies about " Surviving", "Stayin Alive", "WFH causing stress to the whole family and several more. Here is a peek into ...
